Biography

Jerry Lee Lewis, the Killer, is the rock n' roll singer-songwriter and pianist, whose enduring image will be him standing at the piano, limbs flailing, quiff flying, while he belts out "Great Balls of Fire" - his signature tune.

Lewis developed his style early, mixing boogie-woogie, rock, gospel and rhythm and blues. As a youth he was expelled from university for playing 'worldly' music. He moved… Read more in Amazon's Jerry Lee Lewis Store

Editorial Reviews

(8-CD LP-sized Box Set with 36-page book) Classic indeed! This is it. The mother of all rock 'n' roll boxed sets. It comprises all of Jerry Lee Lewis's Sun recordings from 1956 to 1963 in premium sound quality with many previously unissued takes, and many songs in stereo for the first time. No other company has this set. It's the only one that's complete and definitive. Add to that a plethora of incredible unpublished photos in our exclusive LP-sized booklet. This set is the only one you need. Unmatched in the sheer joy of making rock 'n' roll. Essential!

5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular!, September 6, 2006
This review is from: Classic Jerry Lee Lewis: The Definitive Edition of His Sun Recordings 1956-1963 (Audio CD)
This de-luxe box set covers Jerry's Sun studio years from 1956-63, and include EVERY song that 'Killer' recorded in that period: all in all 246 songs with 30 unissued performances in perfect sound quality- all tracks are mastered from the original tapes.
If your tired of countless 'best of' compilations with always the same songs in not so good sound quality, this is the nice solution. And trust me, it's a great music (Jerry is really the wildest and most rockin' star of late 50's and early 60's) in a great package, and after i've heard all 8 cd's, i was just breathless. Yes it was that good!

This review is from: Classic Jerry Lee Lewis: The Definitive Edition of His Sun Recordings 1956-1963 (Audio CD)
To me this is one of the "Holy Grail" items in all popular music. The breadth of musical styles encompassed here is amazing, and Jerry Lee is able to master them all. This weekend I listened to whole set again, on random shuffle, and never hit skip once. Out of 246 tracks, that is amazing, there are very few 10-12 song albums that are this consistently good. You might as well get the big box, because once you start sampling individual cds you are likely to end up here anyway!
