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 andWould 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in the Seventies making their first appearance on CD here.This set also features upgraded sound and includes previously unpublished photos, a newly researched text and session-by-session notes by Colin Escott, and a newly researched discography by Ari Bass. ## Images ![Mercury Smashes & Rockin' Sessions - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/413OMGj90fL.jpg) ![Mercury Smashes & Rockin' Sessions - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91SmJpLaJlL.jpg) ![Mercury Smashes & Rockin' Sessions - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/911-3D0j-kL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very costful but worth it *by R***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 18, 2008* This wonderfully presented CD box holding 10 CD's with 2 LP's on eachone+lots of extra songs, some of which were never released before,+ a veryinteresting LP sized book that gives you all the details of the about200 songs (even at what time and on which date it was recorded)is, tomy opinion, however, a little overpriced. Out of the 10 CD's there are 2you probably won't listen to anymore after playing them (CD # 5, and disc # 10) That makes it 8 CD's for 280$ that's 35 $ per CD!After this intoduction, though, I must say that it absolutely is AMUST for Jerry Lee fans and for all genuine country music lovers whoalso like rock & roll (with JL that's obvious), Honky Tonk, Gospel,Blues, even some Dixieland and wonderful ballads. When Jerry's producerJerry Kennedy decided, in the early 70's,to add a 10-piece string bandhe probably knew that he was going to create Jerry Lee's best everrecordings combining rock & roll + country backed up with some kind of arhythm orientated strings beat. That's when such terrific songs are created like Me & Bobby Mc Gee, Chantilly Lace, No Traffic Out of Abilene, Walk A Mile In My Shoes, Games People Play, Don't be Cruel etc.CD # 3 and 4 are just like being in paradise! CD 1 holds a lot of gospel,CD 2 genuine country with a lot of steel & fiddle besides his alwaysgorgious piano, # 7, 8 and 9 have a lot of rock & roll together withoutstanding country hits that hit the top 10 charts. There are absolutehighlights on this box that never were released before except maybe onbootleg LP's but I have no information on that: On disk 1 a wonderfulblues song called Black Mama + Alvin, on disc 3 the mentioned No TrafficOut Of Abilene + the unissued And For The First Time; on discs 7 and 8we have the greatest unissued examples: first of all a completedifferent version of Great Balls Of Fire that means a completenew melody with the same lyrics and on disk 8 the most incredible andnever released Slippin' & Slidin' a 9 minute lasting tribute togenuine "soft" rock & roll with many piano solos that ends up witha piano duel between Jerry and Bobby Wood! At the end all these "new"discoveries of unknown recorded songs by Jerry Lee makes this CD setworthwile at least for his hundreds of thousands fans throughoutthe world who adore the many styles of music of this Living Legend.In total there are some 65 "new" songs out of the 222 on this CDbox. Some were released between 1985 and 1987 on some of Jerry'sLP's but the great majority can be heard for the first time here. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth it *by 7***5 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 26, 2013* This works out to be a very expensive box set, but it is worth it. Most of JLL's Smash albums have been re-released on BGO Records, but the bulk of his output for Mercury remains available only on vinyl. This box set is the only place to find albums like I-40 Country. It should go without saying that the music here is fantastic. It is a bit of a misnomer to say that this was his "country period," for in these songs JLL blends country, rock, R&B, together with his boogiewoogie piano. To paraphrase a line from one his live albums, "Some people call it rock 'n' roll, some people call it country, I don't really know what it is. I just call it Jerry Lee Lewis music." ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I really enjoy these recordings *by M***B on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 16, 2015* It's a hell of a peace of work.there is ten CD's with all the country and religous songsthat charted between 1970-78. I really enjoy these recordings. No matter what he playes and singsI like it. The price maybe too steep at 140.00 but break it down $14.00 per disc. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/5022264-mercury-smashes-and-rockin-sessions](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/5022264-mercury-smashes-and-rockin-sessions) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
