Look, this box contains every single note that Jerry Lee played at Sun Studios as well as every vocal that came out of his mouth, in- cluding some sounds that Jerry Lee made that were not singing! (listen to Studio chat- ter on disc 9) You’ve read about it if you are a fan, now you can hear his infamous in-studio sermon! Talk about a treasure trove. There are 18
CD’s here. Let’s take a minute to absorb that. Eighteen freakin’ CD’s of Jerry Lee Lewis, the SUN Records outlaw rebel rock and roller! All the way from 1956 – 1963. From “Crazy Arms” and “Born to Lose,” to “Carry Me Back to Old Virginia.” There are discs of re-engi- neered tracks, stereo tracks, and so much more. Did I say every single track that was captured on magnetic tape with Jerry Lee Lewis singing and playing at the SUN Studio
is included? Yeah. I did. On top of that, included are not one but
tw0 300 page hardback books filled with goodies. Book One, The Collected Works, has a list of all of the tracks, the various takes on each song, and details on every session from mono to stereo. Of course there is ample in- formation within the books on the legendary SUN Records founder Sam Phillips. Can you even begin to imagine where we would be today if Sam had not come along? Not me. The man virtually invented rockabilly and rock and roll. Book Two is called Anecdotes and illustra-
tions, and it is so full of news items, stories and tons of rare photos you’ll think you are visiting the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Jerry Lee has done it all- gospel, R&B, blues, country, pop, rockabilly and of course
