About this product

There are a whole lotta reasons why Jerry Lee Lewis was branded InchThe First Wild Man of RockInch and gained the nickname InchThe KillerInch. An outrageous, controversial, and over-the-top character, he was undoubtedly one of the most influential pianists of the 20th century. His ability as a singer, songwriter, pianist and performer helped him become a true pioneer of rock 'n' roll and rockabilly music. Born in Ferriday, Eastern Louisiana in 1935 and brought up in a devoutly religious family, Lewis always had musical aspirations. Taking influences from gospel, country and boogie-woogie, he soon started developing his own style. His break came in 1956 with a successful audition at Sam Phillips' Sun Studios. With Elvis on his way out of Sun to RCA, Phillips needed a replacement star - Jerry Lee was the perfect fit. Pressed on 140g black vinyl, this 16 track LP explores some of his best releases on InchSunInch. From his debut InchCrazy ArmsInch in 1956 through to InchSweet Little SixteenInch in 1962, every tune is a Killer! Album Tracks 1. Crazy Arms 2. Whole Lot of Shakin' Goin' on 3. Great Balls of Fire 4. You Win Again 5. Mean Woman Blues 6. Down the Line 7. Breathless 8. High School Confidential 9. Fools Like Me 10. Break-Up 11. I'll Make It All Up to You 12. Lovin' Up a Storm 13. Baby, Baby Bye Bye 14. What'd I Say 15. Cold, Cold Heart 16. Sweet Little Sixteen
