This video was shot in 1986 at Storyville Jazz Hall in New Orleans.
Paul Shaffer, he still had hair then, pulled this all together.
Ray Charles, Jerry Lee Lewis, Fats Domino, Ron Wood from the Rolling Stones, and Carl Perkins.
Here is a clip from
‘Fats & Friends’.
It shows up on eBay and Amazon often.

Current post online says he is still alive. News report was based on an erroneous tip.

It does not get any better than that!
We did get to see Ray on his 80 birthday tour. (Not to take away from Jerry tribute)

The first report of his death was false, but only in that it was premature by a few days, he did die Friday the 28th according to his rep.
Fats & Friends was SO much fun! Thanks for posting!!

I have this DVD that's titled Rockin' Pianos. Wonderful sets of Fats, Ray and Jerry Lee. Paul Shafer, Ron Woods in it too, but no sign of Carl Perkins. In the Jerry Lee portion, it looks like Jerry's sister, Linda Gail Lewis is backup singer. I may be wrong about that. I would have loved to be in that audience.
