of unpick them a little bit. first, i want to have you talk me through daryl davis in his mid—20s as a musician, playing in a bar in maryland, after a performance meeting this white guy who comes up to you, congratulates you on your music, and then, in the course of a few minutes�* conversation, reveals that he is a member of the ku klux klan. why don't you just tell him to get the hell out of your life? because he was curious about me and, naturally, i was curious about him. why was this klansman praising me, putting his arm around my shoulder and fascinated with my piano playing? he said that this was the first time he had ever heard a black man play the piano likejerry lee lewis. now, obviously, he did not know the black origin ofjerry lee lewis's piano style, which came from black blues and boogie—woogie piano players. that's where rock and roll, rockabilly evolved.
