There is no shortage of Jerry Lee Lewis anthologies — the early Sun years in particular have been ripe for compiling — so it’s been easy to overlook a glaring gap in his catalog: a comprehensive career overview. The closest there’s been is Rhino’s terrific double-disc All Killer, No Filler, but Salvo’s 2012 box A Whole Lotta Jerry Lee Lewis trumps that 1993 set handily.

Label: Bad Reputation | France | Cat#: BAD221201 | Genre: Hard Rock

Digitally remastered edition of this 1981 release. Formed in 1979 by Ottawa-born Ron Chenier, singer/ guitarist, recruited players and began honing their chops doing small clubs in and around the Toronto area. Fleet Street was the band’s third album. “Double Or Nothing” again showcased Chenier’s talent for writing slick, guitar riffs, while “Thunder In Rock” was easily the year’s best tune on the radio waves. With the clever addition of a sax solo, “Thunder In Rock” is probably most synonymous with Fist’s music, if any song is at all. Continue reading “Fist – Fleet Street (1981) [2022 Remastered]”

Started long before his passing in 2022 and influenced more by the effects of a global pandemic, the somber set took on even more gravity and significance after he died.
