Johnny Cash
The Legend of Johnny Cash is billed as the "first ever complete career spanning collection," which is true to a certain extent -- other collections cover territory from 1955 to 2003, but this is the first to contain everything from Sun to Cash's Rick Rubin-produced comeback recordings for American in the '90s and 2000s. Since the biggest complaint ...

by
Ry Cooder
Ry Cooder is known as a virtuoso on almost every stringed instrument, and on Into the Purple Valley, he demonstrates this ability on a wide variety of instruments. The main focus of the music here is on the era of the Dust Bowl, and what was happening in America at the time, socially and musically. Songs by Woody Guthrie, Leadbelly, and a variety ...

There have been in the neighborhood of ten CD box sets devoted to Johnny Cash, released on Columbia, Bear Family, and Collectables (this does not count overseas releases by Sony, or budget-line repackagings of three albums into one box set). Since 2000 there have been roughly 15 new major-label compilations, and that number balloons to nearly 90 ...

The Essential Johnny Cash 1955-1983
(1992)
more music like this
by
Johnny Cash
Assembling a comprehensive multi-disc Johnny Cash collection is a difficult task for a variety of reasons, not the least of it being the sheer number of records Cash put out in the '60s and '70s. Counting duets, he had over 130 charting singles, which is far too much for the average box set, plus those singles don't necessarily tell the full story ...

Ring of Fire [Goldies]
(1999)
more music like this
by
Johnny Cash
This rather huge box set contains live and radio broadcast recordings by the Man in Black. There are no less than 36 recordings here, and most sound great. That said, Goldies has never been big on documentation and would rather slop stuff out than worry about it. In fact, one has to wonder if these sides were even authorized and licensed or if ...

The Great Lost Performance
(2007)
more music like this
by
Johnny Cash
John Carter Cash has been digging in the family vaults a lot in the 21st century. He's been -- rightfully -- hovering over his father's and his mother's recordings protectively. This concert by Johnny Cash with his family and band from 1990 follows up his last recording for Mercury (1989's Boom Chicka Boom) and precedes his collaboration with Rick ...

A Concert: Behind Prison Walls
(2003)
more music like this
by
Johnny Cash
Since two of the defining albums of Johnny Cash's career were live sets recorded during prison concerts -- Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison and Johnny Cash at San Quentin -- it is hard to imagine a fan of the Man in Black not picking up this disc with high interest and reasonable expectations, but listeners should be aware that A Concert: Behind ...

Johnny Cash & the Tennessee Two
This two-CD, 40-song set includes both sides of all 20 of the singles released by Johnny Cash on Sun through 1964. (Even though Cash left the label in 1958, Sun plundered its vaults for more Cash singles for about five years, with some of the 45s doing quite well on the country charts and denting the lower reaches of the pop ones.) This is really ...

Johnny Cash
Rhino's single-disc compilation The Sun Years contains 18 highlights from Johnny Cash's early years, including nearly every one of his hits for the label (the only ones missing are minor singles or B-sides).

The 20 All-Time Original Greatest Hits collection contains several of Johnny Cash's biggest hits on Sun Records from the '50s, including "I Walk the Line," "Folsom Prison Blues," "Hey Porter," "Cry Cry Cry," and "Get Rhythm."

Country Music Hall of Fame: 1980

by
Johnny Cash
This compilation is an odd collection of Johnny Cash's early pop and country hits, as well as some of his heavily produced recordings from the 1970s. While Country Music Hall of Fame: 1980 is an accurate overview of certain points in his career, it seems a little scattered and uneven. The recordings themselves are of varying quality and make for ...

While there's a ton of great stuff here by some of the most legendary artists of the 20th century -- and Johnny Cash continued into the 21st century, as well -- there are far too few "hits" here for this double-disc collection to be definitive. There were jukebox hits, like those for Howlin' Wolf, there were regional and national smashes, too, but ...
