Is Jerry Kattawar The Last Man Standing?

From his very humble beginnings in Mississippi Jerry Kattwar crossed the Big Muddy and started connecting with great people in West Helena and surrounding areas to learn what the Blues and the Delta really was about. In the process he spent over a year in the same hotel – The Sunset Inn in Helena – with Ronnie Hawkins, Levon Helm and other talented musicians. Jerry had no idea where these country people would end up and how they would influence music around the world from the Rolling Stones to The Beatles to Eric Clapton. Jerry and his brother Mike soaked in everything from the roots of Delta blues music to the chitlin circuit. Jerry notes he is the Last Man Standing. Jerry Lee Lewis, Conway Twitty and dozens more have passed but Jerry is still rocking at 81.
