Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars The Killer is the tue King.......2006-03-13


Like a heat lightening, scorching across the hot Louisania night! I had never heard much Jerry Lee Lewis when I first decided to pick up this box set. Truth be told, the early years of rock'n'roll had not interested me much until a few months ago when my younger cousin introduced me to some of the music. Its all fair and square, though, I got him hooked in classic country a few years back.
Anyway, this box set rocks; its an amazing collection of the early work of Jerry Lee Lewis who was one of the early greats of the genre. When you listen to this music you can not help but feel that all of the cool, rebeliousness, and power which are oozing from the speakers is rubbing off on you just a little bit.
Buy this box set and then, when your done, pick up the Johnny Cash Sun Records set as well, which is another amazing collection.

5 out of 5 stars He's a real wild child-he's a wild one!.......2005-06-23

For the price that Snapper Records is offering this set it would be a real shame for any real fan of Jerry Lee not to get it. You could spend a small fortune trying to get all these songs on individule CDs. This set has it all, and I mean all the classics,plus a lot of really good extras that I haven't heard in 40+ years. They even include his version of songs made famous by other stars like Spade Cooley, Ray Price, Hank Williams, Hank Thompson, Elvis and even Jerry's real all time idol the late,great Moon Mulligan (I'll sail my Ship Alone).

This is without a doubt a first class gold mine. I have many of Jerry's LP's (some real collectors stuff too, like "The Greatest Life Show on Earth from Bermingham, Alabama") But this by far is now my favorite. For most folks this set is all the Jerry Lee that they will ever need, that's how complete it is!
