ORIGINAL SUN SINGLES 56-60

If a time capsule were to be rocketed into deep space to inform otherworldly creatures about rock & roll, all it would need to contain would be this collection of singles Jerry Lee Lewis recorded for the legendary Sun label between 1956 and '60. Lewis' prime piano-pounding cuts are at the epicenter of rock history. ORIGINAL SUN SINGLES functions as a de facto greatest hits, including the likes of "Great Balls of Fire" and "Breathless," but it also presents a fuller picture of Lewis' artistry, including his earth-shattering versions of country-oriented tunes like Ray Price's "Crazy Arms" and Moon Mullican's "I'll Sail My Ship Alone."
