Don't forget about his family, specifically Roseanne Cash. On her 2003 album "Rules of Travel" which is great in its own right, she did a duet with her father a short while before he died. It is a breath-taking and brave piece of work.

there is no doubt folsem and san quinton are considered the definite 'must haves' for johnny cash albums.. i also really like the "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash" album, from the early 70's.
i think any of those will fulfill your JC needs..

Amie,
I would get both of the prison remasters along with the Essential Johnny Cash which has all of his studio singles remestered. That'll get you just about all of his best work.

Thanks for the recommendations! I've got one on order (unfortunately lumped in with Ian's very large Amazon order that will take weeks to get here!) and plan to pick up one more this weekend.

Definitely not his best album (in my opinion) but as for as sound quality and recording you wont find a better Johnny Cash album than American Recordings.
Just Johnny Cash and a guitar. One of those rare few cds that makes me feel like "im there"

Can't tell everyone how much I enjoyed the San Quentin album. Listened to again and again. Thanks!

amie, i thought you'd like to know that the trailer for Walk the Line , the Johnny Cash movie just came out. It looks really good and it's a great sign that Joaquin Phoenix sounds just like Cash when he's singing and speaking. And (surprisingly) it looks like Reese Witherspoon might be tolerable in it.
Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?
