Jerry Lee Lewis Artist Snapshot:

Owing as much to 1950s wrestling bad guy Gorgeous George as he did to Elvis Presley, rock's original wildman didn't so much play rock & roll as he played Jerry Lee Lewis. A powerful honky-tonk pianist and singer, Lewis is that rare breed of star whose outsize ego is more than matched by his talent. He was among the first to show that the piano could challenge the guitar's rock & roll hegemony, and--along with Elvis, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, and Carl Perkins--he formed the legendary mid-'50s stable of Sun Records, a group of performers that would forever change the face of popular music.

Review

Q (9/00, p.126) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...With their romping, stomping primitivism, [these Sun recordings] are as lascivious, unhinged and dangerous as any white singer got during the '50s..."

Title Note

Producers: Sam Phillips, Jack Clement, Bill Justis, Billy Sherrill.

Compilation producer: Cary E. Mansfield.

Includes liner notes by Allen J. Wiener.

Digitally remastered by Dan Hersch (Digiprep, Hollywood, California).

25 ALL-TIME GREATEST HITS is an extremely well chosen anthology of Jerry Lee Lewis' early work. This music is as extreme as '50s rock gets. After all, as Allan J. Weiner puts it in his excellent liner notes, if rock & roll had a voice, attitude, and performing style, it would very closely resemble Lewis'.

Among these epochal, reverb-drenched blasts, one finds all of Lewis' hits-"Great Balls of Fire," "Whole Lotta Shakin' Going On," and "Breathless." Many of the less familiar tracks are just as potent. Lewis' leering, rockabilly version of Ray Charles' "What'd I Say" and his country boogie take on Hank Williams' "Cold, Cold Heart" are especially good. As one-CD Lewis best-of selections go, this disc is pretty hard to beat.
