An eighth grade memory: There was light giggling in the classroom after the teacher made a reference to Jerry Lee Lewis. "You know who Jerry Lee Lewis is, don't you?" Mr. M. asked the class. "He sang the hit, 'Whole Lot Of Shaking Going On.'" Mr. M. overenunciated the syllables, sounding like an archaeologist decoding hieroglyphics on the wall of a cave.
It still amuses me to imagine Lewis singing the song with Mr. M.'s delivery--and without dropping the g in "Shakin'."
