Jerry Lee Lewis

Killer In Stereo: Good Rockin' Tonight

(Sun Records)



While the Killer hurls his own takes on tracks identified with Elvis, Little Richard, Gene Vincent, and Chuck Berry, it's on other numbers that he flares most lustrously. His tossed-off Louisiana drawl and battering of innocent ivories was nonpareil. The world will never see his like again, but at least we had him for a while. And one day, we will know him anew.

Recommended: "High-Powered Woman," "Hello Josephine," "Just Who Is To Blame," "When My Blue Moon Turns To Gold Again," "When I Get Paid," "Save the Last Dance For Me"
