Description
Johnny Cash was the first artist to fuse the sounds of country, gospel, rockabilly and storytelling with a string of unforgettable hits. He wrote moving songs of love and loss, and his voice was not only unique in the field of country & western, but in all of popular music. This quintessential CD features two of Johnny Cash's finest LPs, which were originally released on the Columbia label in 1959: Songs of Our Soil and Hymns by Johnny Cash.
The first album contains a dozen songs that are on the folkier and more Americana-centered side of Cash's repertoire. The second, Hymns by Johnny Cash, is entirely devoted to sacred songs, even though it doesn't really sound that different from his prior secular work. Both of these sensational albums have been re-mastered and packaged together in this very special collector's edition, which also includes 6 bonus tracks from the same period.
