Great Collection
Great collection of his music! It has almost all of the songs that were in the movie.


If you like Johnny Cash, you will love this CD!
com right away and ordered it. Really, I need not say more than the title--it says it all! I first read about this CD a few short weeks ago in an online article which suggested playing this CD if you were giving a garage sale, as it was 'oldie but goodie' Johnny Cash songs! I got on amazon.


Great CDs
The two CDs are great clean country music at its finest. Johnny Cash's country music legacy is hard to capture on two CDs, but these contain his greatest hits. .


So it doesn't have the newer stuff so WHAT!?!?
The Man at his roots was one of the greatest story tellers through music that the worlds ever known. This is the real Johnny Cash. From the live Folsom Prison Blues recording INSIDE OF A PRISON, to A Boy Named Sue, these songs bring it all back. Even with that there are a couple notable tracks from the early to mid days that are MIA, but the newer over hyped Covers of 90's hits are a welcome omission for me.


Back when country was good...
But back in the day, country was The Man and Black, who had some pretty deep lyrics and a booming, deep voice. I can't stand today's country at all! Everything on the radio is repetitive with lyrics written by a redneck 10 year old and the singing is ear-cringing and with an exaggerated Southern drawl.

The collection itself has a lot of variety, from some of his early stuff to some gospel to some newer stuff, including a U2 song he did. The reason why I don't give this product 5 stars is because of the unnecessary censorship in 'A Boy Named Sue. " The line 'I'm the son-of-a-bitch that named you Sue' is 'I'm the (BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP) that named you Sue. ' Very annoying, indeed.

But despite that, Johnny Cash is worth checking out, even if you don't like country,.
