Review:

"The Road Begins" is a perfect introduction to the vast world of Jerry lee Lewis.
Thirty one songs that cover the beginning of his career. You'll find his first single for Sun (End Of The Road/Crazy Arms - Sun 259), his classic rockers (Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On, Great Balls Of Fire) and a couple of other sides that show what a great country singer Jerry Lee is (You Win Again, Born To Loose).
Some of the sides he made as a session pianist for Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Hayden Thompson, Billy Lee Riley are also included here as well as two takes from The Million Dollar Quartet (though they were probably recorded once Perkins and Presley left) and a live take of Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On recorded at the Steve Allen Show.
Most of rock'n'roll fans probably already owns most of this recording but the last four tracks are more obscure. These are demo recorded in 1952 and 1954 before his Sun days.
A good overview of Jerry Lee's debut.
