Johnny Cash – The Johnny Cash Collection: His Greatest Hits, Volume II (Vinyl LP)194397640618

$42.00

Although he began his career as an outlaw to the Nashville establishment, Johnny Cash came to literally define and embody country music. His unique mix of hillbilly music with gospel and blues made him a perfect fit at Sam Phillips’ Sun Records. From there, Johnny signed with Columbia and embarked on one of the most remarkable musical careers of the 20th century. Transforming into The Man In Black, he spent more than 30 years reinventing himself – breaking all of the rules of traditional country music only to emerge as the ultimate mythic hero and archetype of the genre. Originally issued in 1971, Johnny’s second Columbia Records Greatest Hits collection builds on 1967’s first installment with a few signature Sun singles (“Big River,” “Hey Porter”), landmark performances from his San Quentin and Folsom Prison concerts (“A Boy Named Sue,” “Folsom Prison Blues”), the Kris Kristofferson-penned hangover ode “Sunday Morning Coming Down” and the timeless June Carter duet “If I Were a Carpenter.”
