Story & Background
The first 1962 London pressing of "Jerry Lee's greatest!" is a significant artefact that illuminates the peculiarity of Lewis's fame post-1958 scandal. In the United States his career suffered a collapse due to his marriage to his underage cousin, but in Europe his charisma and incendiary rock'n'roll, fuelled by Sun tracks like "Great Balls of Fire" and "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On", maintained a robust following. This compilation, released by the British label London (licensee of the Sun catalogue), transcended a mere collection of hits; it was a strategic operation to cement his legendary image as "the Killer" overseas. The record testifies to his persistent international relevance and the intrinsic strength of his raw music, capable of overcoming personal controversies and anticipating his future artistic renaissance.
