Cajun Pawn Stars uncovers lost Jerry Lee Lewis recording from 1952

As further proof that reality shows can be educational as well as historically significant, the second episode of Thee History Channel’s new series Cajun Pawn Stars features a rare recording purported to be from 1952 and featuring rockabilly/rock and roll/country piano legend Jerry Lee Lewis – two years prior to when historians previously thought Jerry Lee cut his first demo. Goodness gracious… Great balls of fire!

Tammie DeRamus may be the daughter of Silver Pawn’s Jimmie “Big Daddy” DeRamus but the Cajun Pawn Star brunette knows just about as much in regards to the business and could sell sawdust to a lumber mill. I thought I’d do a litttle profile on the woman who is a pawn store lifer and runs the day to day operations of Silver Dollar Pawn and Jewelry featured on The History Channel’s Cajun Pawn Stars.

In spite of their black-ops cover up I’ve got the first official promo clip and another interview with the show’s soon-to-be star, Jimmie DeRamus.
