Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. „Czy ktoś, kto gra rock’n’rolla, może trafić do nieba?” – nie przypadkiem pytanie to dręczyło Jerry’ego Lee Lewisa, urodzonego w 1935 roku w Luizjanie wokalistę i muzyka. To on wzruszył Elvisa do łez, to on skakał po fortepianie w szaleńczym uniesieniu, to on stał się jedną z ikon amerykańskiej popkultury. Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On czy Great Balls of Fire na zawsze zmieniły oblicze rock’n’rolla, nadając mu diabelskiego i obłąkańczego rytmu.

Across the South, padlocks and logging chains bound the doors of silent mills, and it seemed a miracle to blue-collar people in Jacksonville that their mill still bit, shook, and roared. The century-old hardwood floors still trembled under whirling steel, and people worked on, in a mist of white air. The mill had become almost a living thing, rewarding the hardworking and careful with the best payday they ever had, but punishing the careless and...
