Live at the Star Club, Hamburg, recorded with the Nashville Teens in 1964, 
which is considered one of the greatest live rock-and-roll albums ever. 
In Joe Bonomo's book Lost and Found, producer Siggi Loch stated that the 
recording setup was uncomplicated, with microphones placed as close to the 
instruments as possible and a stereo mike placed in the audience to capture 
the ambience. The results were sonically astonishing, with Bonomo observing, 
"Detractors complain of the album's crashing noisiness, the lack of subtlety 
with which Jerry Lee revisits the songs, the fact that the piano is mixed 
too loudly, but what is certain is that Siggi Loch on this spring evening 
captured something brutally honest about the Killer, about the primal and 
timeless center of the very best rock & roll..." 
The album showcases Lewis's skills as a pianist and singer, honed by relentless 
touring. In a 5-out-of-5-stars review, Milo Miles wrote in Rolling Stone magazine 
that "Live at the Star Club, Hamburg is not an album, it's a crime scene: Jerry 
Lee Lewis slaughters his rivals in a thirteen-song set that feels like one long 
convulsion."
 
Due to legal constraints, the album was not released in the United States
