This captivating insight at one of rock's seminal figures includes essential live footage of the rock n roll legend filmed by D.A. Pennebaker, also responsible for Bob Dylan's Don't Look Back. Balancing 1969 concert footage (when Lewis appeared at a rock revival show in Toronto) with clips from his breakthrough '50s years and a compelling account of his tumultuous life, including an illegitimate marriage to his 13-year-old cousin, this is a fascinating insight into a brilliant and controversial music icon.
The '69 show sees Lewis performing both his own tunes ("Great Balls of Fire", "Whole Lotta Shakin'Goin'On") and several songs more closely associated with Elvis Presley ("Don't Be Cruel," "Hound Dog," "Jailhouse Rock") and confirms the unbridled energy of both Lewis and his audience.
