| | Jerry Lee Lewis Rockin' Rhythm & Blues/The Golden Cream Of The Country CD Jerry Lee Lewis Discography of CDs
 (1 Customer Review)
ROCKIN' RHYTHM & BLUES originally released on Sun (107). THE GOLDEN CREAM OF THE COUNTRY originally released on Sun (108). Includes liner notes by Mark Marymont.
Along with Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, and Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis pioneered the rock & roll sound of the '50s with his early recordings for Sun Records. Reissue specialist Collectables has paired two original Sun packages on this single disc. Lewis's frenzied piano style, equal parts barrelhouse and Little Richard, merged blues, country, and an unidentified third party to create a wholly unique and original style that we've come to know as rock & roll.
The ROCKIN' RHYTHM & BLUES album finds Lewis adding his raucous touch to tunes by Fats Domino, Roy Brown, Chuck Berry, and other early rock & roll giants. In contrast, THE GOLDEN CREAM OF THE COUNTRY is where Lewis explores a different side of his musical makeup. Here he tackles tunes by the likes of Hank Williams with aplomb. Instead of a straight country treatment, Lewis rocks it up a bit, adding some groove and sway to "Cold, Cold Heart" and others. This twofer handily represents two different facets of Jerry Lee's unique style.

On his first new solo album in nine years, Butch Hancock, like several of his singer/songwriter peers, has decided that the time has come to take on President George W. Bush and his invasion and occupation of Iraq. Having kept tabs on history, Hancock has some choice words for the president's predecessors as well. For example, one verse of "Damage Done" goes, "Desert storms, call to arms, call it what you will/One nation out from under God with justice standin' still/Noriega, North, and Nixon now, like father and like son/One steps aside, one steps right in to carry on the damage done." And Hancock is specific in his criticisms. "When the good and the bad get ugly," he sings in a song of that title, "They do every dumb thing under the hot sun/There's ways to be real and there's ways you can heal/But the Patriot Act is not one." As far as he's concerned, the real reason for the war is not hard to discern. "The Devil in Us All" notes, "They never found a single weapon of mass destruction/But they all smell oil, got to get it in production." When he isn't reworking newspaper editorials into rhyming verse, Hancock relies on the Bible for his poetic imagery, viewing the situation in stark terms of good and evil. His observations are expressed musically in performances that inescapably evoke Bob Dylan and even Woody Guthrie. If it's nearly impossible to get through a notice about Hancock without mentioning Dylan, that's because Hancock's singing voice is so similar, not only in timbre but also in his phrasing, to Dylan's, to the extent that any average person, hearing only a sample of one of these tracks, would think it was Dylan. This is, in a sense, the kind of record one might expect if Dylan hadn't given up topical songwriting back in the '60s, or if he were suddenly to find inspiration in outrage at American foreign policy ...
