Classic Jerry Lee Lewis: The Definitive Edition of His Sun Recordings 1956-1963 (Incl. Unissued Performances)

~ Release by Jerry Lee Lewis (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

The most complete CD set of Jerry Lee Lewis' Sun recordings (1956-1963) until the issue of the 12 CD boxset "Jerry Lee Lewis - The Ultimate: The Sun Years" (Charly Records, Sun Box 4, 1993).
Nevertheless the boxset "Classic Jerry Lee Lewis", contrary to the assertion of Charly Records, contains many recordings not included in "The Ultimate" or included as a different kind (e.g., stereo instead of mono, or with different false start, etc.).
The sound mastering of the boxset "Classic Jerry Lee Lewis" is sometimes different to the one of "The Ultimate" boxset. All stereo tracks of "The Ultimate" boxset are inverted as regards to the boxset "Classic Jerry Lee Lewis".
