- Cash...Priceless.
I bought this album because I like a lot of the songs on the album and just wanted a general overview of Cash's career. I was also thrilled to see a cover of One by U2 on it (one of my favourite songs by them), and a couple of live songs; A Boy Named Sue in particular, because he was just such an incredible showman and it was great to listen to this imagining being there to witness him delivering such great performances.

This is a brilliant album and brilliant value for money; a great introduction to, or overview of, Cash's career.

- The best of Johnny Cash captured on one CD
At first I was skeptical of the whole Johnny Cash is a great musician/songwriter, and thought it was oldie country music for the oldies to reminisce about, and say how they never make music like they used to; that was until I was given this CD to try after seeing the film based upon his life.

Johnny Cash is without doubt a very clever songwriter/commentator with catchy 2-3min songs that reveal a story with very poignant and/or witty poetry set to music you'll hum along to after very few listens. Clear examples of this can be found in songs such as 'A boy named Sue' and 'San Quentin.'

- True Legend
This is a great intro to new fans of Johnny Cash, a true icon whose music covered several generations.

When I first played it and the trumpets of Ring of Fire came on I wandered if I'd done the right thing ! The early tracks are pure 50s country, a complete contrast to the later U2/Depeche Mode covers/corroborations. There's something for everyone here but don't just buy it for the later stuff.

Cash has an amazing deep and warm voice, full of charisma and soul. It would have almost been worth being banged up in the notorious San Quentin to have seen him play live there. One of rock and roll's original bad boys, he lived his life and sang as he saw it.

For me and probably other non die-hard country fans, ... Read More:

- fantastic!
I'd never heard of Johnny Cash until this cd appeared in the cd player at work. Needless to say, it came home with me about a week later, and has been in my car ever since. There's something about johnny Cash that is totally mesmerising, & i'm even more hooked since watching walk the line, which is one of my favourite films. This deserves a place in every CD collection.

If you can only afford one CD from the Man in Black, get this one. All the classics from the great man. Superb.
