There are Johnny Cash compilations everywhere you look. The difference with this one is that it encompasses his entire career: from Sun Records to his latter day recordings with Rick Rubin. The result is a truly impressive look at the entire career of Cash, who went from the 1950’s and pretty much never stopped making music. The really big hits are here: “Folsom Prison Blues”, “I Walk The Line”, “Ring Of Fire”, “A Boy Named Sue”. His time with The Highwaymen (with Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson) is documented, as is “The Wanderer”, recorded with U2.
The American recordings also gets a nod here, as it should. This was Cash at his most raw and emotional form. The late take on “Give My Love To Rose” is powerful. “Rusty Cage” is a great cover of the Soundgarden song recorded with Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. And of course “Hurt”, the last hit Cash had before he died, is included. Not an easy task to cover a career this massive on one disc…but The Legend Of Johnny Cash does a great job of it.

The early years of the career of Johnny Cash were his most consistent, and his most exciting. He signed with Sun Records in 1955 and made his first record, “Cry, Cry, Cry” (sadly not included here) and “Hey Porter”. Between 1955 and 1958, Cash was the most prolific and consistent of the Sun artists (Elvis Presley left not long after signing), but Cash was unhappy with his contract, and the fact that Sam Phillips was concentrating more on the career of Jerry Lee Lewis. Cash left Sun in 1958 for Columbia, but left behind a treasure of material.
The Sun Years collects the hits from this period nicely, but for the complete picture, you’re better off with the three disc Complete Sun Masters…pricey, but worth it. In the meantime, this album served as the definitive early years best of for Cash, and still fills that role nicely. It’s good to have “Folsom Prison Blues”, “I Walk The Line”, and “Big River” all in one place. Still highly recommended, but the bigger and bulkier mini box set of Sun Masters will make you forget this pretty quickly. [First added to this chart: 01/15/2025]

There isn’t much information available about this album. There are no liner notes other than listing the musicians and technical support involved, and there seems to be very little known about why the performance was “lost”, or who found it, or when. What is known is that the album was recorded at The Paramount Theater in Asbury Park, NJ on July 28, 1990. Cash had a full 6 piece band and four female singers, including his wife June Carter Cash. And, for 1990, this is a pretty exceptional show by Cash, who had fallen into some fairly bad music at that time…this was more like a show from 25 years before 1990. Cash is in fine vocal form, and in good spirits. June, funny as always, is a hoot as well.
The album begins with a spirited “Ring Of Fire”, then hits a couple of gospel tunes before sliding into “Folsom Prison Blues”. Several of the songs in the middle are short and work as a medley. Closing the show particularly strong, Cash burns through “Tennessee Flat Top Box”, “Ghost Riders In The Sky”, then brings out June for the next two before closing with the classic “I Walk The Line”. This is a fine posthumous release, but it would have been nice if someone had taken the time to give us some background about it. Otherwise, very very good. [First added to this chart: 12/31/2024]
