Jerry Lee Lewis --- I Can Help-- alternate take

[@gabrieldunne0]

Superlative.......thank you Mr. Jerry Lee and beautiful whistling :))))

[@claush7492]

What a superbly relaxed take on this song. Jerry sounds effortless here, like he's just really having fun. Billy Swan should be proud.

[@PaulGaston88]

This was the alternate take. Tell you what: I will get the other version up pretty soon. Why it was never released we will never know. Mercury wasn't using their heads! Thank You for listening 🎧💜

[@70jwm]

I prefer this version personally. laid back and great piano solo.

Jerry made the words and version of a song to his own style....nothing like him!

That was his greatest gift: restyling a song and making it his.

Great interpretation from the killer, his piano skills were so good it's easy to ignore how good he handles his vocal, his highs and lows are something very special..

He always knew he was a genius, but it’s just that it’s taken us awhile to realize it as well. I realized from watching new doc that all the crap has distracted and detracted from his genius. I’m old school and bought some CDs for car. He is amazing!

YOU HAVE A TREASURE TROVE OF GREAT JLL - THANKS FOR SHARING.

[@ELVIS1975T]

I've been listening to Jerry Lee's other version of this song for at least 20 years. In this version, starting from 2:58, Jerry Lee again sings his NEVENENEVENEBUHAVEDABLUES word plays that I love sooooo much, and I think to myself, "YOU'RE THE KING, MAN" (KRAL in my non-English language) but then I think of Elvis and say "well, I have to call Jerry Lee something other than King (Yeah, I know, Killer). Then at that moment (3:06) Jerry Lee says THINK ABOUT IT ELVIS! Oh my god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))))))))

Simply brilliant.

[@PaulGaston88]

Makes you wonder sometimes why they didn't release some of these alternate takes. They make good conversation pieces for us today. lol

[@bailbath]

I think JLL is an acquired taste. Some people get it some people don't. A lot of people are ignorant of the brilliance of JLL's output 1. because it's usually Great balls/Shakin played if he's ever played at all 2. negative press often untrue 3. perception of southern folks by people who prefer stereotypes. Luckily we don't fall into any of those categories.

[@PaulGaston88]

I like these outtakes with the raw vocals. There is an outtake that I have not been able to find and the uploader took it down from youtube.. it was from the London Sessions.. a rare, alternate take of 'Drinkin' Wine".. would love to find that again...

[@db90990]

Interesting: at one point in the song he says "think about it Elvis"

[@PaulGaston88]

They always had a friendly competition, except the one night Jerry Lee was drunk and came up to the gates of Graceland demanding to see Elvis. There's all kinds of stories about that night in November 1976, but he did not drive up there and point a gun at them. He did have a gun on the dash, but it was a gift given to him by the owner of the Vapors club where he had come from. He told Jerry Lee to leave it on the dash or else he would get into trouble for conceal weapon. So he pulls up, wants to see Elvis and there the guards were at the window of the car and they asked Jerry Lee about the gun...Jerry Lee says, "No, I didn't come up here to shoot Elvis, but if you're that stupid then maybe I did 🤣 So after some more pleasant conversation, they pull Jerry Lee out of the car and he spent the night in jail. Elvis called that morning and they let Jerry Lee out, but they say they never saw each other before Elvis died. But you hear Jerry Lee say, "think about it Mickey, think about it Jimmy in other songs.

[@michaelbickley9801]

Jerry lee , sings any song as good if not better than the original artist. Paul wasn't it a guy named royal that done this?

[@PaulGaston88]

Billy Swan did this in 1974.. had a #1. This was never released by Jerry Lee Lewis. This was on a 3 part series called, The Mercury Years. What I have here is an alternate version that wasn't available until 2000. A great song..
