Our Take
Our Take
Ah, JOHNNY CASH - the man in black, the legend, the country outlaw. 'Country Boy - The Sun Years' takes us back to where it all began, with Cash's early recordings at Sun Records.
From the moment the twangy guitar kicks in on "Hey Porter", you know you're in for a wild ride. Johnny's voice is as deep and gravelly as ever, telling tales of love, loss, and life on the open road. The rowdy energy of tracks like "Get Rhythm" and "Big River" will have you tapping your feet and shouting along, while slower ballads like "I Walk the Line" showcase Cash's raw emotion and heartfelt lyrics.
The production on these recordings may be a bit rough around the edges, but that only adds to their charm. You can almost picture Johnny and his band crammed into that tiny recording studio, pouring their hearts out into every note.
And let's not forget Cash's distinctive guitar playing - simple yet powerful, it serves as the perfect accompaniment to his rumbling vocals.
Overall, 'Country Boy - The Sun Years' is a must-listen for any Johnny Cash fan or lover of classic country music. It's a raw, authentic glimpse into the early days of one of music's true icons. So grab your cowboy boots, turn up the volume, and let the man in black take you on a journey through the heart of the American South.

About the artist
Johnny Cash
The Man in Black himself, Johnny Cash, was truly larger than life. With a deep timbre in his voice and an outlaw attitude to match, Cash revolutionized the country music scene with his raw and emotive storytelling. Born in Arkansas in 1932, Cash's early years were marked by poverty and hardship. But it was these struggles that fuelled his music, giving it an authenticity and grit that set him apart from his contemporaries. Cash burst onto the music scene in the 1950s with hits like "I Walk the Line" and "Folsom Prison Blues," capturing the hearts of fans with his rebellious spirit and no-nonsense approach to songwriting. His iconic all-black attire and sneering, devil-may-care attitude made him a legend in his own time. But Cash's life was not without its demons. His battles with addiction and personal struggles were well-documented, adding a layer of depth to his music that few could match. Through it all, Cash remained a towering figure in the world of country music, his legacy enduring long after his passing in 2003. Whether you're a die-hard fan or new to the world of country music, Johnny Cash's discography is a must-listen for any music aficionado. So grab a coffee (or something a little stronger) and settle in for a wild ride through the life and music of one of the greatest artists of all time. The Man in Black never goes out of style.
