Jerry Lee Lewis: Mercury Smashes... (10-CD Deluxe Box Set)

10-CD box (LP-size) with 64-page book, 226 tracks. Playing time approx. 715 mns.

If you only know Jerry Lee Lewis as the Sun-era legend of Great Balls Of Fire, you’re missing the second explosion: Mercury 1970–1978 – tougher, freer, and far less predictable. This 10-CD deluxe box captures the years when Jerry Lee was at his most consistently successful – and at his most volatile.

He’s not trapped in a country straitjacket here. He uses country as a launchpad. He bends the format, pushes arrangements to the edge, dives into rock ’n’ roll, gospel, honky-tonk and vintage standards whenever it suits him. Those detours are not distractions – they’re the reason this period matters.

What you get

• 10 CDs covering the complete Mercury/Smash era recordings.

• A wealth of rare and previously unissued material.

• Carefully remastered sound – more punch, more presence, especially piano and vocal.

• A substantial deluxe book with session details, background essays and rare photos that place the music in context.

Why this matters for rock ’n’ roll fans

Because this set proves that rock ’n’ roll didn’t end in 1958. You hear:

• The country hitmaker who still plays rock ’n’ roll like his life depends on it.

• The raw energy of the early ’70s revival era.

• Sessions where Jerry’s piano leads from the front and the band follows his attack.

The hits are here – but more importantly, so are the risks, the reinventions, the moments where triumph and collapse sit side by side. Personal turmoil, public pressure, brief turns toward gospel, then straight back to the fire. Nothing polished for comfort. That’s why it sounds real.

This isn’t a “Best Of.”

It’s a complete chapter of rock ’n’ roll history – loud, flawed, fearless.

If you care about the whole story of The Killer, this box belongs on your shelf.

Damn Good Country Songs and Jerry Lee's Rock 'n' Roll Revival Show. That was the story of the last eight years of Jerry Lee Lewis on Mercury Records...the story told on these 10 CDs.

Between 1970 and 1973, nearly every Jerry Lee Lewis single entered the country Top 20, including such classic country chart-toppers as There Must Be More To Love Than This and
Would You Take Another Chance On Me/Me And Bobby McGee. The years covered by this boxed set were the most consistently successful of Jerry Lee's career, but they were troubled years too. This set chronicles his journey from country chart-topper back to the church, and his triumphant return to rock 'n' roll with 'Chantilly Lace'. All the classic albums from 1970 to 1978 are included complete (with the exception of the 'London Sessions' and the live albums, which will be issued separately). The Huey P. Meaux-produced 'Southern Roots' session is here together with all the unissued cuts and out-takes, as well as 'The Killer Rocks On', the rare gospel album 'In Loving Memories', and ten other original Mercury LPs. In addition, there are more than 40 recordings not originally issued by Mercury in the Seventies making their first appearance on CD here. This set also features upgraded sound and includes previously unpublished photos, a newly researched text and session-by-session notes by Colin Escott, and a newly researched discography by Ari Bass.
