Good Rocking Tonight: Alternative & Unissued Versions

~ Release by Elvis Presley / Jerry Lee Lewis / Billy Lee Riley (see all versions of this release, 2 available)

Annotation

Augmented reissue of LP: rare take of "It'll Be Me" by Jerry Lee Lewis (track 13) and his concert at Brussels in May 14, 1972 (tracks 16 to 25) were added.
Sound quality (mastering) is very poor (all the tracks are clipped).
As before, track 9 is mistakenly named "Savin' It All for You" and mistakenly credited to Warren Smith.
Track 12 "Great Balls of Fire" is in fact movie version, as before not recognized as such.
