Jerry Lee will never be forgotten as long as Jacob Tolliver lives !!!
Keep Jerry alive...... with your music.
Oh my gosh, I love Jerry Lee Lewis music. Thank you for keeping it going. Rock on man
This guy Jacob has more talent than 98 percent of the artists who are on the Billboard HOT 100 right now!
thanks for the kind words. new music coming soon!
Exactly ! How many can even play an instrument or sing without auto tune? This is what you call talent!
@@JacobTolliverOfficial Wow, that's awesome! Looking forward to it! I'm a really big fan of yours, and of course, The Killer - Jerry Lee Lewis!
That's what I'm talking about. You are the man !
INSANE!!!
So Glad that young generation are keeping the music alive.🎹🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶.
Such an honor to perform for Jerry Lee and celebrate his 85th Birthday! Thanks to everyone that tuned in
You are the best Jacob!!!
What an impressive performer you are, too. Easy to see why The Man loved you. 😀
When Jerry is happy, I am happy.
always good to see ya your hardware store videos are the best
I am so happy for you and all you are doing in your life!
Hey, you said you're from Portsmouth. I went to Eastern Junior High in the mid-70s with a sweet girl named Rhonda Tolliver. Relation, perhaps?
Wow! I have never heard of anybody who could even come close to playing the piano as half as good as Jerry Lee Lewis or could sound and sing like him but Mr. Jacob Tolliver sure could. He really, really could. Just look at the expression on Jerry Lewis's face as he heard and saw for himself how Mr. Jacob could. God bless them both..I sure hope that I hear more of Mr. Jacob's music. He really made me smile. I really, really enjoyed it very, very much and I thank you. Have a Blessed Day Amigo. Adios.
Jacob is the jerry lee lewis of my generation. I was born in 90
Yessir, Jerry Lee could raise a little hell in his day!! Glad to see he enjoyed this. Nicely done Mr. Tolliver!! What an honor to get to play for him.
Raise a little hell? He married his 13-year-old cousin. He married his 13-year-old cousin's brother's ex-wife (I think that's her sitting next to him). He shot his bassist in 1976. He apparently tried to shoot ELVIS PRESLEY two months after that. He tried to strangle his teacher as a CHILD (that's where he got the name "Killer"). He beat most of his wives and is still suspected to have killed the 5th one. The list still goes on from there.
It's one thing to be a rock idol and "raise a little hell" trashing hotel rooms and having a fistfight once in a while, this guy belongs with the Sawyer family in Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Yeah, his piano skill was beyond mortal and he had some incredible songs, but it's freaky that you guys ignore what a total psycho Jerry Lee was because he was a talented musician. You wouldn't want to be alone in a room with this rock idol - there's a 15% chance he'll take one too many shots of whiskey and then try to break the glass with your face. :S
@@MeteoXavier You should write a book.
Omg. I saw him in Vegas . He is absolutely fantastic. I'd see him in a heartbeat again. The best.
That guy is a talent. He even looks like a young Jerry Lee.
IDENTICAL.
Wtf no he doesn't
So he's his cousins son, who's Jerry's wife, who is also his sister... so yea I see the resembles.
Hey, I want to hear him do Hadacol.
Looks like him? No don't think so.
He plays just like Jerry and looks like him as a young man. “Wowed”
He should play in a movie of Jerry’s life. Incredible piano player !!!!!!!
Have you seen Dennis Quaids movie he did? It's excellent! Winona Ryder was also in it. I watched it when I was a little kid and it still is brilliant. If they ever do a new one then definitely Jacob must do it! 🎉
There's is only one Jerry Lee, but this guy comes mighty close. Superb.
100% agree Melodie.
His playing was awesome. Jerry Lee was great.
This guy is good but no one comes close to Jerry Lee no disrespect.
Phenomenal! 🏴
He could almost be a carbon copy he's that good... Hope he cuts some records for those of us who knew Jerry when he was young like this young gentlemen... Maybe some of the Great J.L.L rubbed off on him : time will tell... Thanks to those responsible for posting this video... It was a trip down memory lane that had no price...
There will never be another Jerry Lee Lewis.
But this guy comes close. You've got to keep this guy's music alive ! Fantastic!
He sure as he'll made ol Jerry smile!
The Killer enjoyed this performance.
Yes he did that beautiful smile tells it all.
He LOVED it!
Formidable performance la relève est assurée
🇧🇷🇧🇷👏👏
That in and of itself is one hell of a compliment
4:08 Jerry: „He is playing it like me“ - what a great compliment!
Best Compliment Ever!
I agree -he is playing it like jerry
he says - 'he's better than me'
'He's playing good piano'
That's what he said.
He plays so much like Jerry Lee and even better that he looks like a young Jerry Lee. Keep on Rocking Killer!
He is AMAZING! The smile on Jerry's face was priceless ❤️

I know, right?
I think that smile is because he was thinking he had nothing on me lol nice try kid
This is soooooo cool 😁😛😍
'Yes!.......
i wish i had this much Talent
A piano knows it's been played when Jacob's done!! I half expected the keys to catch fire! Dang, he is absolutely incredible!! 👏👏👏
Jerry Lee was a f-cking monster on the piano . . . This guy is damn good . . . But Jerry Lee was a master on the piano . . . Make no mistake about that .
I thought the 'IVORY' was going to start flying, "WELL DONE"~
This guy is good. And even Jerry likes him.
But....I am more impressed by Kenneth Lovelace. He's been Jerry's guitarist and bandleader for almost 60 years.
Now THAT'S impressive. And still he is so humble.
Kenny Lovelace is the man!! Such an incredible person
@@JacobTolliverOfficial I know. 😀 Met him the times I met Jerry. He really is a humble and loveable person. And he really doesn't understand how great he is or the impact he has made.
I was just thinking I would like to have seen Kenny do a little something by himself for Jerry Lee...
@@Will_DiGiorgio I agree. And Kenny can actually sing too.....
Agree totally!
Rock n roll Will never die thanks to Jerry Lee. And all the other old time rockers like Jacob. What a kid. 👍👍👍👍👍
Qg
@@jesseharvey2207 and what that means?
The killer rocks
Hes just awsome
Well said ! ;-)
Can see the excitement in Jerry's eyes. His legacy lives on!
Jerry looks so pleased with Jacob's performance.
What a fine tribute to Jerry on his 85th...so well played.
I think Jerry sees his younger self when watching this guy and he obviously enjoyed his performance. Awsome job!!
et oui
There are no words to describe how absolutely awesome this guy is in the way he pays tribute to the Killer...God bless you Jacob.
J adore .et les musiciens de son époque.
Quel pianiste
Tears in my eyes God bless America for this music 🎶 RIP Jerry Lee Lewis big Mexican fan here.
Damn, that was fantastic.. Jerry lee was impressed for sure.. Hell of a Birthday show for him..
There is NO rock and roll without the man they are honoring on his 🎂. RIP killer.
Wow! Great cover. Never seen or heard anyone come that close to Jerry Lee's own version. Fantastic!
Aint nobody on Earth can play like that lad with that style except the Legend sitting behind him.
How wonderful to see This KING still rocking"....
I'm 73... Take it easy 💖🌹...
I may die for Joy 💖!!!!!
I had to come listen to this today, as I just learned of Jerry Lee's passing. Rest in peace Killer. 💔
Hello pretty lady how are you doing today hope you have a wonderful day and your family
I love this video so entertaining I'm glad to see it again. How are you Wendy's ?
How wonderful to have talent like jacobs to keep jerry lees legacy alive.
Wow, I am 78 and remember Jerry Lee Lewis well. THIS GUY IS JUST LIKE HIM. AMAZING TALENT.

This guy is freakin amazing . Your the next Jerry lee Lewis . Please make a album
Impossible to ever get tired of this music. Thank you Jacob!
What an American Classic, and Jerry Lee Lewis is an American Legend! Happy 85th, Birthday!!!
Spectacular ! The joy on Jerry’s face said it all and for a few minutes he was 60 years younger !
Der Maestro macht mit. 👍😀
His missus could have looked just a bit more happy during the actual performance. Jeez should looked miserable :(
@@CompleteCretin I was about to say the exact thing.And they had the camera on her for a hot min lol she has it throughout the whole video
Yes he loved it!
At first, neither of them smiled or tapped their hands. But, when the camera rolled, at least Jerry smiled and acted alive. His wife looked like a miserable Biotch the whole time.
LORD HAVE MERCY!!!!! HE JUST STOLE MY HEART..................AND MY BREATH!!!!! OMG!! WHAT A PERFORMANCE!!!
thanks for the kind words! glad you enjoyed it
@@JacobTolliverOfficial Jacob you are really a good performer! It must have been some pressure on you to impress Jerry! Keep up your very good work!👏👏👏👏👏
I have to say that I have watched this video probably 10 times in the last 2 days. I am a HUGE Jerry Lee fan and even got to meet him when I was a kid and we lived across the street from him in Collierville Tennessee. I have seen people imitate Jerry or try to imitate him. A lot of piano players can sing Jerry Lee's songs and they do OK. Nobody can emulate Jerry Lee's style on the piano , at least not until I saw Jacob! I really watched the playing more than listening to the singing. The singing was really good but the style of playing was spot on. I can tell when a piano player has formal training and is very strict in their method of playing. Jerry Lee was not formally trained and that allowed him to develop his own style and allow him to never play a song the exact same way every time he would play it. With all this being said. Jacob has a God given talent and let me stress that he is not a Jerry Lee Imitator. To say this would would diminish the hard work Jacob has put in to taking his own natural ability and mix it with a little of Jerry Lee's method of playing and create his own style. Obviously people see Jerry Lee when they see Jacob play, but if you look closely at Jacobs playing you can see he took some of Jerry Lee and mixed it with a lot of Jacob! Well done young man!
@@jerrydilliard1200 yes!! Very well put! Agree 100%!! He is truly amazing!
Check out Jason D Williams. He took his show from Atlanta to Las Vegas in the 70's. However, he's not as good as THIS Jason.
No doubt Jacob is one of the most talented musicians today! And he looks so nice.
Now I'm a great fan of him! From Japan.

Hello dear☺️🌹
Jerry Lee looks fantastic!!!
AWESOME Simply AWESOME!! l always loved Jerry Lees Lewis and his music. God bless you Jerry. See u in heaven before too long! Rest n Peace❤️🙏
R.I.P Jerry Lee Lewis your a rock n roll legend and your legacy will never be forgotten
Jerry Lee Lewis. Is last man standing.
As far as the million dollar quartet, yes, But we still have Don Everly, Dion and some others like Jerry Allison, though he was a drummer, he is the last of Buddy Holly and the crickets member.
I don't know how many times I've played this clip. Jacob's piano makes me so happy!
Music to pep you up👍🏼
He can play that piano really good . . . But the killer made the piano a legend . . . Jerry Lee could do things to a piano that just wasn't human . . . Jerry Lee was a handful in his younger days . . But Jerry Lee loves this kid and his playing . . . Jerry Lee sees a lot of himself in this kid .
@@tonydavis2672
Absolutely RIGHT...🎹 ♥️🎵
Jacob is AWESOME! What talent!
& Wht a real TREAT for Jerry's "birthday"!🎂 JERRY knew by watching Jacob that night his "legend" would definitely continue on ...🎹 👍🥰 🎵 💙
I do too !
You and me both! It puts me on a high!
Jerry Lee is my lifetime musical hero, bought Killer Rocks On at the age of 15 and the love never faded. I met with Linda Gail at a concert and later had the honor to accompany Linda Gail and her two fantastic girls on tour in Denmark a couple of times with but never got to meet the grand old man.
Jacob Tolliver is amazing and what a pleasure to see JLL having a ball. Happy birthday!
I Love watching this video!! I have to watch it everyday. Wow, Jacob you have so much talent and I love seeing Jerry Lee enjoying it!! RIP Killer!!
Sensational,and old Jerry is rocking along in appreciation..love it.
From a 79 year old when Jerry was king and still is for sure this brought tears to my eyes and that Jacob can play !!!
Goodness...gracious...an awesome tribute.
Happy Birthday Jerry Lee.
God bless you.
I'd like to add....
Got tears in my eyes seeing how happy Jerry is here. He's been through lots of hardships in his life. Some self inflicted, some not.
To see him this happy in what is probably the end of his life makes me smile through my tears.
Yes, very moving to see that.
Do you know where America is mentioned in the Bible ??????? Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!!
Jerry Lee Lewis , the biggest name in rock and rock , the most thrilling and exciting performer of all time . Thank you Jerry ! Happy Birthday to you,and I wish you many more whole lot of shaking going on .
It thrills me to know real music is alive and being played as it is supposed to be. I love this nothing can come close to this sound in today's music.
Amen!
So very true .He is great
Right! And I probably shouldn't even agree to that statement on 'modern' music because I quit listening to what was being played as current about 20, 25-ish years ago and never bothered tuning in again. I just kept listening to what I knew. What I knew was good. Rest in peace, Killer. I'm sure you've made quite the stir amongst the angels since your arrival on that golden strand, and I wouldn't expect anything less.
Just me or has anyone else watched this video > 10X and is now Addicted! Jacob is a Phenom~
I hv watched this video 50X n I am now addicted. Thank u Jacob.
Amazing talent!! Worthy successor to Jerry Lee Lewis.

It's nice to see Jerry enjoying seeing someone playing his songs so well. It seems that he is thinking: this boy reminds me of me
Thats my favorite Jerry Lee song
Man, its was incredible, thank U so much!
I thought Jacob was Jerry Lee's grandson! They resemble each other very much. Happy Birthday Jerry Lee from me in southeastern Turkey.
This guy Jacob is the best I have never in my life heard anything better that was awesome and I agree he is better than anybody on the Billboard charts right now
@@aleksynicolas5910 thank you

I remember seeing Jacob's video at the hardware store, he rocks the piano. I'm old enough to cry when Chuck Berry died, others of my generation. Grew up with Jerry Lee. Am so glad to see youngsters inspired by the good music and carry on the tradition!!

Rest in Peace killer. Your music has inspired and thrilled millions of people all over the world. ❤️
Jerry Tolliver and Jerry Lee… wow!! Pretty fantastic!!!
Watched this video 10 times.great job
Awesome, I loved that look between Jerry lee and Kenny as the guitar solo ended, that's L O V E, they've been playing together for over 50 years, what a great partnership......As Jerry said 'Kenny really knows how to Get it, get it and get it some more, musically speaking'....Congrats to The Killer and The World's number 1 Rock n Roll fiddle player Kenny, thanks for all the music you've given to us, much live and respect.
Yee Ooow - He makes the music come back alive & better than ever. Fantastic!!!!!!
This guy is an absolute SUPER STAR! We need to see way way more of him!!!!! and the guitarist too! love this. just love it. we need more happy music like this.
Oké 😢
Hi gorgeous how are you doing today hope you have a great day??
So good to know there're young guys following The Killers path. God Bless.
Following from Spain. Sad to know Jerry passed away, but he left his music, so he'll always be with us.
I love this song still listening what a unique talent. How are you Susana ?
So much talent..Thanks from Greece..God bless you...
I love your smile Jerry Lee! 🌞 Happy 85th Birthday

I remember when that first video of him playing the piano came out. I’m so glad that started his new career!
Brilliant!! Glad to see the Killer is enjoying the performance!!
Love this guy. Closest person to play like Jerry Lee Lewis I've heard. Keep it up !
Mickey Gilley was pretty close as well.. His cousin also from Ferriday
Takes huge talent to tackle on an icone like Jerry Lee. It takes lots of guts to play Jerry Lee style in front of him. This guy Jacob, just nailed it. Absolutely nailed it. And it was great to see Jerry Lee witness it and obviously approve.
Good job 👍
He can make that piano talk just like Jerry! Love it !
Très bons pianiste, ❤
He was fantastic. I was patting my leg listening to Jacob. And Jerry was smiling patting his leg. That was priceless. I love that song. Jerry had a boogie woogie birthday

The ROCKIN’EST, ROLLIN’EST TRIBUTE to JERRY LEE LEWIS, EVER!
JACOB TOLLIVER, you made me want to get up & DANCE to your ENTIRE PERFORMANCE! What a GIFT YOU GAVE, & What a GIFT YOU ARE! 🎼🎤🎹👌🎂❤️😊
I did get up amd danced.
@Jacob Tolliver Most welcome. As lead singer in several Rock bands, I am highly critical of my performances & others’ as well. I would sing with you in a heartbeat. Born in Montreal, I moved to L.A. to teach & to sing. Music is my passion! 🎼🎤🎸❤️
@Jacob Tolliver You are most welcome. I always support true talent. My beloved father Phil was a singer, bandleader & musician: he could play 7 instruments. I was singing with him at age 3, & he would hold me up to the microphone when I sang at weddings soon afterwards. Please check out my vocals on my channel. I will find your email. God Bless you
always, my friend. 🙏🏻🎼🎤🎸😊
great job killers !!!!!!!!!!
I remember him saying in an interview years ago that he'd "be there to end it," and the interviewer took it as Jerry would be the "last rocker." And here he is today, still here. The last TRUE rocker!
Mind Blowing Performance. And in front of The Great Jerry Lee Lewis. Truly an awesome performance.
I'm a pianist, so of course I've admired Jerry Lee Louis since around 1955. I thought there could never be another man who could do what Jerry Lee did, and here is Jacob Tolliver - and greatness will live on. I was happy to see Jerry getting such a kick out of Jacob's tribute. The best to both of you.
