LAST LISTENED TO too long ago
CHANCE OF WAKING TO IT too small
RATING
What's not to like? It's huge-sounding, rambunctious rock 'n' roll, full of energy and fire. Lewis recorded it in 1957 at Sun Studios with only a drummer accompanying him and it is to the credit of Sam Phillips that Lewis' excitement and personality are so abundantly clear. From the jangling boogie-woogie piano to the high tone leaps in vocal pitch, this had become not just one of the defining songs in rock 'n' roll but also one of the key moments in rock history.
