Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
It's a great and perhaps impossible challenge to encapsulate the highlights of Johnny Cash's vast musical catalog in a two-CD, 36-song collection like this. Yet, though it barely scratches the surface, 2002's The Essential Johnny Cash--part of a series of compilations and reissues celebrating Cash's 70th birthday--does present three-dozen satisfying and balanced snapshots of some of the Man in Black's most memorable work for the Sun, Columbia, and Mercury labels. Above all else, these 36 selections are wonderful reminders of Cash's rustic eclecticism. Cuts range from '50s Sun rockabilly classics like "Hey Porter" and "I Walk the Line" to '60s country-folk gems like "The Ballad of Ira Hayes" and Cash's memorable duet with Bob Dylan on Dylan's "Girl from the North Country." Also included are more recent samplings of Cash's celebrated collaborations, including "Highwayman," which he recorded in 1984 with Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson as part of the on-again, off-again supergroup the Highwaymen, and "The Wanderer," a fervent gospel collaboration with U2 that appeared on the band's 1993 album, Zooropa. --Bob Allen

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Johnny Cash
I got this for my dad for Father's Day to play in his truck, I knew it would bring back memories for him, I love Johnny Cash too and should have got 2 one for me...lol I guess I will get myself one later. This CD has 30 songs and is a true must have for Cash fans.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - laid back listing
This two-disc set is a perfect collection if you are not a huge johnny cash fan. The set contains 36 songs, the first disc is all by himself, the 2nd disc has some songs featuring other big names like marty robbins, willie nelso, waylon jennings, bob dylan, and his wife june. To let people know if it has the NIN cover he did for the song Hurt, it doesnt



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - AMAZING
This cd features legendary music from a legendary music artist , the complete career spanning hits from 1955 to 1992 , this has to be the best collection of Johnny Cash so far , highly recommended.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Essential Johnny Cash
Even though I bought this CD for my 86 year old Mother who is living with me, I also enjoy listening to every song.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Essential Johnny...Just Like It Says
This is the only Johnny Cash CD I own and I'm really glad I finally purchased it. He is clearly both a country music and overall music icon. Few country artists have contributed any more. This captures the essence of his contributions and his life.
