i'll probably buy it right away, but i won't listen to the whole thing for a couple more years. ...i'm still on my 'one cash cd a year from the boxset' program. gives me more time to get to know each cd without getting burned out on him.

the point of the whole american series was that rick rubin let johnny cash record whatever he wanted, so you've got a good mix of covers, rerecorded songs, hymns, and stuff he just wrote, but just never recorded.

gavin - 6-29-2006 at 10:30 PM

"like the 309" and "i came to believe" are the only 2 he wrote on this album

DaveMoral - 7-1-2006 at 02:15 AM

Can't wait to pick this up... I've got so much Cash to buy though....

I just picked up the Time Life "Complete Sun Recordings 1955-1958" set at a Cosco today for 25 bucks, awesome.
