2011, Music on Vinyl
VINYL FORMAT. Import! Today Johnny Cash's stature as an icon of American music is commanding and significant. When it comes to singers of any genre - country, Western or rockabilly; blues, folk or gospel - few have achieved the height of The Man in Black. Despite his death in 2003, Cash continues to grow in influence, casting a shadow that reaches far beyond the country circle from whence he grew. To know the tree, one must begin at the root and take in all the branches; to fully grasp Cash's old-growth legend, one must hear his earliest performances, as well as unreleased or under-promoted recordings that somehow remained out of earshot of an adoring (and still-expanding) public. Such is the mission of the Johnny Cash Bootlegs, a series brimming with historical importance but also delivering thoroughly enjoyable listening experiences, each programmed to stand as a captivating doorway into Cash's popular legacy as effectively as any greatest hits compilation.
Featuring previously unreleased and incredibly hard-to-find singles, demos and other rarities recorded from 1955 through the late '60s, Bootleg, Volume Two: From Memphis to Hollywood chronicles his exciting rise from local sensation to an artist of national importance, his songs reaching millions through best selling albums and hit movies. This fifty-seven track collection is a boon for collectors, but Volume Two also resonates with mainstream appeal, telling a captivating story that captures pivotal moments in Cash's far-ranging career, while reflecting the trends and transitions of those years.
