His old guitar is where he left it, Still strung and tuned as on that day. I remember he would play for hours. Rock and roll he loved to play.
He never got to hold his grandson or sit with him in his rocking chair He's not a name that most remember but fans of Joanie Jett still care.
For all you who love rock and roll He wrote your anthem, he penned your prayer I'll play a cover on my Fender as the old man rocks up heaven's stair.
The late Jake ****** (d.08/04/2014) with his partner Alan Merrill wrote the tune " I love Rock and Roll" which was taken up the charts by Joanie Jett and the Black hearts. Jake was married to Lorna Luft and his mother in law was Judy Garland
