The material included on this indispensable two-disc set makes up one of the cornerstones of country music. The raw, gritty sound of Johnny Cash had few precedents in country, other than honky-tonk heroes Hank Williams and Ernest Tubb. In fact, Cash's seminal 1950s recordings for Memphis's groundbreaking Sun label, simultaneously redefined country and invented rockabilly, thereby establishing a kind of post-honky-tonk sound. Even more personal in his vocal delivery than Tubb and more emotionally direct than Williams, Cash expressed the sentiments of the common man in language at once plain and casually artful, like a down-home Shakespeare armed with a percussive acoustic guitar. |
|
All the high points of the Sun years are hit here--the grim resignation of "Guess Things Happen That Way," the idiosyncratic devotional statement of "I Walk the Line," the sociopath's lament "Folsom Prison Blues," and so on down the line. The minimalist sound of Cash's backing group matches the lean, honest sentiments and style of the songs every step of the way, giving a lesson in the virtues of economy. |
Producer: Sam Phillips; Jack Clement |

Artist Overview
Johnny Cash was part rockabilly rebel, part campfire storyteller, part outlaw in black. Cash made country and rockabilly history on the Sun label in the 1950s. During the '60s, the ruggedly charismatic Cash rose to superstardom, ending the decade with both his marriage to June Carter and his own television show. In the '90s, Cash began his highly successful and acclaimed AMERICAN RECORDINGS series, reaching a new audience with an amazingly diverse set of songs, ranging from traditional tunes to alternative rock covers. With his lean, angular sound and hearty, passionate baritone, Cash forged one of the most unique styles in all of popular music, one that delved into gospel, folk, and rock, but also remained the essence of country music. Four months after his wife died, Johnny Cash passed away on September 12, 2003. And in 2005, the Oscar-nominated biopic WALK THE LINE brought Cash's music and legend to his largest audience yet.
