Album Notes Also available in a 3-pack with WILLIE NELSON: 16 BIGGEST HITS and GEORGE JONES: 16 BIGGEST HITS. Producers include: Bob Johnston, Don Law, Frank Jones, Johnny Cash, Charlie Bragg. A Johnny Cash song has two components: Cash's deep, gravelly baritone, and that distinctive, "chicken pickin'" guitar and bass line. But as 16 BIGGEST HITS demonstrates, it's what Cash managed to do with those two simple ingredients that makes him a legend. A country singer with a rock & roll heart, Cash mixed traditional country idioms with the lyrical sensibility of his pal Bob Dylan to create songs that were at once of-the-moment ("The Ballad of Ira Hayes") and timeless ("Ring of Fire"). 16 BIGGEST HITS includes a fine sampling of Cash's favorite themes: the socially-conscious protest song ("The Man in Black"), the humorous story song ("One Piece at a Time"), and the song of longing and desire ("Flesh and Blood," "I Still Miss Someone"). Also included are the classic "Folsom Prison Blues" (the superior 1968 live version), the snarling put-down "Understand Your Man," and Cash's definitive version of Kris Kristofferson's "Sunday Morning Coming Down." The 8-minute track "The Legend of John Henry's Hammer" is a veritable radio play, complete with sound effects and character voices. But since a single disc can't possibly reflect the scope of Cash's output, consider 16 BIGGEST HITS the appetizer to a grand musical banquet. | Find errors in the product description?

Top Reviews  country music with a deep soulReview created: 04/26/07 by:  8 of 9 people found this review helpful. Johnny Cash is one of the cornerstones of American Country Music. He really exudes the roots of the working man and the man's problems- recall the greats of Burning Ring of Fire and Folsom Prison. We know you can sing along. As always, buying compilations of biggest hits is the good way to go for the beginning fan as you just can't go wrong and there's no need to fast forward through any slow stuff. Of course with the man in black there's little chance you'll find a song that you don't like. Review ID: 10000000003441663 Was this review helpful?

Johnny Cash was my dad's favorite and has become one of mine over the past few years!!! Review ID: 10000000006813324 Was this review helpful? Report this review Used CD Johnny CashI really like that it was used , but in very great condition. Look like it was not even put in a CD player. The seller was very correct about everything he had said aboit it. The reason why I bought it was that I was looking to buy a CD on Ebay , any CD by Johnny Cash and that one I won was the perfect one that would fit into my library of CD's. I hope to continue winning on Ebay for the stuff that best fits my needs. Review ID: 10000000005966627 Was this review helpful? Report this review Great transaction.
