With Jerry Lee's 1969 rebirth as a country star for Smash Records, Singleton began releasing songs under the terms of the deal between Singleton and Phillips. As Colin Escott observes in his essay for the 1986 retrospective The Killer: The Smash/Mercury Years, "After only seeing two Sun albums by Jerry Lee Lewis between 1957 and 1969, the market was suddenly flooded with three or four a year and even more recycled into budget compilations on Pickwick Records." Consequently, Lewis found himself competing with his own past, much like Johnny Cash, whose masters had also been a part of the Singleton/Phillips deal. Singleton would milk these unreleased recordings for years, following The Golden Cream of the Country with A Taste of Country later in 1970. "The Killer" was so hot in 1970 that Singleton issued one of Lewis's latter unreleased Sun recordings, "One Minute Past Eternity", as a single and it climbed to number two on the country chart, following on the heels of Lewis's recent Mercury smash "She Even Woke Me Up to Say Goodbye". The album also includes two songs by Hank Williams, one of Lewis's biggest influences, as well as the George Jones-penned "Seasons of My Heart," which Jerry Lee performs as a duet with his sister Linda Gail Lewis. 1.01 - Jerry Lee Lewis - Invitation to Your Party (1:57) 1.02 - Jerry Lee Lewis - Jambalaya (On The Bayou) (2:01) 1.03 - Jerry Lee Lewis - Ramblin' Rose (2:55) 1.04 - Jerry Lee Lewis - Cold Cold Heart (3:05) 1.05 - Jerry Lee Lewis - As Long as I Live (2:26) 1.06 - Jerry Lee Lewis - Seasons of My Heart (2:58) 1.07 - Jerry Lee Lewis - One Minute Past Eternity (2:04) 1.08 - Jerry Lee Lewis - I Can't Trust Me (In Your Arms Anymore) (2:12) 1.09 - Jerry Lee Lewis - Frankie and Johnny (2:34) 1.10 - Jerry Lee Lewis - Home (1:59) 1.11 - Jerry Lee Lewis - How's My Ex Treating You (2:36)
