Lovin' Up a Storm (false start & take named (5) on BCD 17254)

~ Recording by Jerry Lee Lewis

Annotation

Firstly issued in 1982 on "The Sun Years" (12 LP set). Contains chatter, false start and take 4 (net length 1:49).
Note from the back cover of Record 8 of "The Sun Years". There is no indication in the Sun files or tapes when "Lovin' Up a Storm" and "Big Blon' Baby" were recorded, or even if they were recorded at the same time. They were issued back to back in mid February 1959 and, presumably, they and this out-take of "Lovin' Up a Storm" were recorded around Christmas 1958. Jerry's performance is full of attack and he contributes a two-fisted solo but this one obviously needed more work. The guitar is minimal and the drumming proficient. Neither proves whether or not Roland Janes and Jimmy Van Eaton were present.
