Together (Jerry Lee Lewis Album)
''Together'' is an duet album by Jerry Lee Lewis and his sister Linda Gail Lewis. The album was released in 1969 on the Smash record label. Background In the wake of his comeback success with the album '' Another Place, Another Time'' in 1968, Lewis renegotiated his record contract with Smash and secured a deal for his sister Linda Gail, who had been part of his road show for years. Five years earlier, Sam Phillips had actually signed Linda Gail to Sun Records (largely to placate her brother) and cut several sides with her, even using their duet of the George Jones song "Seasons of My Heart" as the B-side of the Lewis single "Teenage Letter", but scrapped any further releases after Lewis left the label. She eventually managed to release a couple of singles with ABC Paramount and Columbia but, as Colin Escott put it in the liner notes for the 1986 retrospective ''The Killer: The Smash/Mercury Years'', Linda Gail's ambitions "unfortunately outstripped her talent."
