2000 – AMERICAN
Produced By RICK RUBIN & JOHN CARTER CASH
1. I Won’t Back Down
2. Solitary Man
3. That Lucky Old Sun (Just Rolls Around Heaven All Day)
4. One
5. Nobody
6. I See A Darkness
7. The Mercy Seat
8. Would You Lay With Me (In A Field Of Stone)
9. Field Of Diamonds
10. Before My Time
11. Country Trash
12. Mary Of The Wild Moor
13. I’m Leavin’ Now
14. Wayfaring Stranger
By 2000, Johnny Cash was running out of time. He was sick, and it was starting to tug at his once powerful voice. But he was driven to continue working, by his wife June, producer Rick Rubin, and mostly by himself. American III was the third of the six American albums series. It was also the second to last studio album released during his lifetime. He was no longer touring, but he was still one tough hombre. On this album, he growls out songs of stubbornness and defiance, culling from artists who listened to him as kids that wrote in styles once unfamiliar to Cash. But Johnny had been proving for years that he didn’t care what kind of artist you were…he could cover your damned song. And indeed, late in his career especially, Cash had become an expert interpreter.
He takes on Tom Petty (“I Won’t Back Down”), Neil Diamond (“Solitary Man”) and U2 (“One”) with relative ease. He’s also not afraid of the likes of Will Oldham and Nick Cave. But this isn’t just Cash taking on youngsters. He also reaches back to older days with “That Lucky Old Sun” and the even older “Nobody” (from 1906). The traditional “Wayfaring Stranger” is in good hands, as is David Allan Coe’s “Field Of Stone”. In the second half, he even reaches back into his own catalog with re-recordings of three songs he wrote himself. Petty joins in on the opener, and even Merle Haggard shows up to sing on “I’m Leavin’ Now”. The next album would be a bigger hit (thanks to “Hurt”), but don’t sleep on American III. This is Cash at his older but still driven best. A sleeping classic of an album. [First added to this chart: 05/03/2025]

1993 – CAPITOL
Produced By YOUTH & CROWDED HOUSE
1. Kare Kare
2. In My Command
3. Nails In My Feet
4. Black And White Boy
5. Fingers Of Love
6. Pineapple Head
7. Locked Out
8. Private Universe
9. Walking On The Spot
10. Distant Sun
11. Catherine Wheels
12. Skin Feeling
13. Together Alone
The best thing about Crowded House is that they never sucked. Together Alone is no exception. This is their fourth album, and it’s the follow up to the ridiculously great Woodface from 1991. And even though Neil Finn’s brother Tim had come and gone by the time of this disc, the momentum from Woodface carries on quite well here. This is not as perfect as Woodface, but it’s not far from it. Finn’s songwriting is growing by leaps and bounds here, and while there’s and added maturity, he doesn’t have to sacrifice the fun and the hooks to achieve it. Also, like its predecessor, Together Alone is massively underrated. Even though the album boasts seven singles…it’s mostly a forgotten gem.
Especially in the US, Together Again missed being a big hit. “Locked Out” was the only track that caught on here, and that was because it was included on the Reality Bites soundtrack. The album did well in the UK, New Zealand, and the band’s native Australia, but it was otherwise ignored. That’s our loss, folks. Excellent songs like “Distant Sun”, “Nails In My Feet”, “Pineapple Head”, and “Private Universe” missed the American radar. And for that matter, much of the rest of the world as well. This is a fine album. Not as perfect, and not as exciting as Woodface or Crowded House, but close enough to be an album you should definitely hear. Neil Finn is as fine a songwriter and performer as there is, and this is an album worth seeking out for sure. [First added to this chart: 01/15/2025]

1994 – IMAGO
Produced By KEVIN KILLEN
1. Happy Home
2. I Am So Ordinary
3. Saturn Girl
4. Watch The Woman’s Hands
5. Bethlehem
6. Chiaroscuro
7. Black Boots
8. Oh John
9. Our Revenge
10. Dear Gertrude
11. Hitler’s Brothers
12. She Can’t Feel Anything Anymore
13. Garden Of Eden
14. The Ladder
Paula Cole gained label attention as a backup singer for Peter Gabriel in the early nineties. She would have great success with her album This Fire…but first, there was her debut album, 1994’s Harbinger. If you’ve followed Cole’s career at all, you know that she is rarely the same person from album to album, which has been her ultimate downfall. The same exciting singer who gave us the Dawson’s Creek theme (“I Don’t Want To Wait”) and the amazingly bright single “Where Have All The Cowboys Gone” on her next album was a scowling, dark and depressing tortured artist just two years earlier. Rumor has it that this album makes even the best shoegaze bands cry.
And to make matters even more depressing, right after this was released, her label (Imago) went out of business, meaning that Harbinger got pretty much zero support. Which turns out to be okay…while this isn’t terrible, the only track really worth hearing more than once is “I Am So Ordinary”…which hardly inspires a party. There are some good moments here, and the seeds of the much finer This Fire are indeed planted here…but ultimately, Harbinger is an average downer of a record. Cole followed up her excellent second album by completely changing course again and alienating her fans…but at least we have that album. Paula Cole is a fine talent who just never seemed to figure out what she wanted to sound like. Too bad for her, and for us. [First added to this chart: 01/30/2025]
