All Killer, No Filler: The Anthology (also called The Jerry Lee Lewis Anthology: All Killer, No Filler!) is a 1993 box set collecting 42 songs by rock and roll and rockabilly pioneer Jerry Lee Lewis from the mid-1950s to the 1980s, including 27 charting hits.[4] The album has been critically well received. In 2003, Rolling Stone listed the album at #245 in its list of "Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time",[5] maintaining its rating in a 2012 revised list, and dropping to #325 in the 2020 update.[6][7] Country Music: The Rough Guide indicated that "[t]his is the kind of full-bodied, decades-spanning treatment that Lewis's long, diverse career more than well deserves."[8]
