Though he had only three Top Ten hits in the first purely rock & roll phase of his career, many critics believe Jerry Lee Lewis was as talented a Fifties rocker as Sun label mate Elvis Presley.Some also believe he could have made it just as big commercially if his piano-slamming musical style was not so relentlessly wild or his persona not so threateningly hard-edged.

The Story of Rock and Roll would not be complete without a heavy dose of Jerry Lee Lewis.This exceptional show includes Jerry Lee live at the Toronto Peace Festival and his performances on the "Steve Allan Show" and "Shindig".Legendary filmmaker D.A. Pennebaker wraps the performances around a chronicle of Jerry Lee's tumultuous life and career.Includes hits such as: High School Confidential, Great Balls of Fire and Whole Lotta Shakin'.
