LINDA GAIL LEWIS - LOVE AND LAUGHTER

Record executives search extensively for recording artist and live performers prosessing unique marketable qualities witch will classify them as "stars." Now a wild wind of powerful talent blows trough the air waves to stir up the stagnant pool of todays music scene.

The name of the storm? LINDA GAIL LEWIS.

No longer does she stand hiding in the shadows, holding the hand of her older brother, Jerry Lee. Linda Gail stands prodly and independently as one-of-a kind music personality. The stong, resonant voice of Linda Gail, coupled with her unique brand of style and delivery, engulfs the listener with wave after wave of brilliant, confident performances. Her twang and sob reap a harvest of emotional responces with her precise vocal control.

When she performs a song of any type, the song, no matter how many times it has been covered by other artists, transforms into a magical entity, witch instantly becomes a Linda Gail Lewis orginal. With a full spectrum of vocal range, she belts out snide tunes with a sharp edge that cut deeply, and and croons tearjerking ballads to soothe the wounds like no other artist has ever dreamed of doing.

As a writer, her songs exeplify the genius of this multi-talented artist. She draws upon a deep well of experiences from the roller coaster ride of her personal life, witch reads like a melodramatic novel.

The songs, witch she has penned, shower the listener with bits and pieces of Linda Gail's life in a manner that only an extraordinarily talented writer could trustingly throw out to the listeners. Curious?

Listen to "Love Makes A Difference" and catch a glimpse inside of a very special woman. And no one pouds the keys of the piano like Linda Gail Lewis. The piano, at times, sounds as it will fall apart from the brutal beatings of her rolls and riffs.

And, yet, she massages the piano while playing her ballads like an experienced gentle lover. Linda Gail reaches deep within her soul to present to her listeners the gift of her divinely inspired talents witch she instant are not her's for the keeping.

Her love and energy radiates to touch all those within the reach of her music. Her performances are unforgettable. Receive the music into your life, for you will convert the world into a mass of Linda Gail Lewis fans- much like what is now happening in europe.

Mostly referred to by fellow musicians as "The Queen Of Rock And Roll," Linda captures our hearts and rules our lifes with "Love And Laughter," a well ballanced collection of songs featuring her versatile performance styles of mainstream country, rockabilly, and good old-facioned rock and roll.

She sings, writes songs, and plays the piano like no other female perfomer in the world today, having learned at a very early age the trade secrets from the masters of music themselves, not recordings.

Nashville and New York now buzzes with the exited responses of those few that have heard her latest recording efforts.

Linda Gail Lewis (LGL) producer, Jerry Phillips, wanted an unadulterated opinion of the CD, "Love And Laughter," from his father Sam Phillips, of legendary Sun Records.

On a car trip from Memhis to Nashville, Jerry played a variety of today's current music for his father, and then slipped in the Linda Gail Lewis CD without revealing the identity of the artist.

Upon listening, Sam Phillips exclaimed, "Wow, now you're talkin!" When asked of her project, LGL producer, Stuart Colman said, "She is the key to the engine that has been idle for so long in Nashville."

"Love And Laughter" is just a taste of things to come from Linda Gail. This important collection of work propels her up into the sky with the rest of the stars shining brightly in the music business today.

CONGRATULATIONS, LINDA GAIL, YOU ARE A STAR!
