SONY Reissue of three albums but what's wrong with that? Mar 11, 2009
Ok. So you can get these elsewhere, and in other formats, but get this here and you'll have something to keep, and to play.
The first disk is his great Hymns By Johnny Cash, and what could be better than this? We can listen once more here to:
It was Jesus (twice)
I saw a Man
Are all the Children In?
The Old Account
Lead me gently Home
Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
Snow in His Hair
Lead me, Father
I Call Him
These Things Shall Pass
He'll Be A Friend
God Will
done in that great, direct, strong, early Johnny Cash style. This is not over sweet Elvis Hymns; this is that early Man in Black singing from his great heart, the real deal. I hear America sing, from the dirt fields and farms. Tihs is good old Johnny Cash music and you got to hear it again.
The second disk is the great Now, There Was a Song! collection of country ballads and blues, as only Mr. Cash could do. We hear:
Seasons of my Heart
I Feel Better All Over
I Couldn't Keep from Crying
Time Changes Everything
My Shoes Keep Walking Back to You
I'd Just Be Fool Enough (To Fall)
Transfusion Blues
Why Do You Punish Me (For Loving You)?
I Will Miss You When You Go
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry
Just One More
Honky Tonk Girl
Great songs like only Mr. Cash delivers them. Hear this, America!
The Third disk is Ring of Fire: The Best of Johnny Cash, with:
Ring of Fire
I'd Still Be There
What Do I Care
I Still Miss Someone
Forty Shades of Green
Were You There (When They Crucified My Lord)?
The Rebel Johnny Yuma
Bonanza!
The Big Battle
Remember the Alamo
Tennessee Flat Top Box
(There'll be) Peace in the Valley
Okay, so a lot of what you know to be the BEST of Johnny Cash is not included in this list, but you do get a whole lot of great recordings. Personally I believe the best of Johnny Cash to be in his Bitter Tears (Ballads of the American Indian), absolutely no doubt, and that is the one you must hear. I also appreciate his 16 Biggest Hits as the finest greatest hits collection I have seen. Maybe you have seen better. But please let us all thank Sony for putting these three great disks into one collection and releasing it now. Keep Mr. Cash Alive!
Worth having. This is American music. Hear it once more. Oh, yeah, also try: A Patriot's Handbook: Songs, Poems, Stories, and Speeches Celebrating the Land We Love. Oops! I meant to put A Patriot's Songbook to hear Mr. Cash sing, but the other one's good reading, too.
