Johnny Cash - Hot & Blue Guitar - Vinyl

From the minute he walked into Sun Studios, Johnny Cash began a career that would see him become one of the biggest and most influential musicians of our time. Though only on Sun from 1955-58, Johnny made some of his most legendary recordings there. When he moved on to Columbia Records, Johnny left behind a large cache of material which Sun happily compiled and released on LPs throughout the 60's, mixing Cash's singles-sides with previously unissued recordings. The resulting platters were a goldmine for fans eager to hear more from country's newest superstar. From the original Sun masters, featuring many raw, in-the-studio sides (sans overdubs) - the Man in Black has never sounded better! A gritty bodacious masterpiece! Johnny Cash With His Hot and Blue Guitar was not only Cash's debut album, it was also the first full-length LP released by Sun. The LP's twelve tracks include one side of his debut single, quot;Cry, Cry, Cry,quot; along with two of his best-known recordings, quot;Folsom Prison Bluesquot; and quot;I Walk the Line.quot; Backed by quot;The Tennessee Two,quot; Luther Perkins on guitar and Marshall Grant on bass, the tracks are spare, direct and intense. Cash's distinctive quot;boom-chickaquot; rhythm propels every song as his commanding voice captures and holds the listener.
