Johnny Cash Remixed

VINYL FORMAT. Music World licensed 20 classic Johnny Cash tracks from legendary Sun Records (first label home of Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Roy Orbison, among others). Johnny Cash is an icon of American music whose work has touched every contemporary genre, from rock to pop, from emo to hip hop. The exciting possibility presented by the Sun catalog is "what would have been?" These tracks were recorded with Cash's band, the Tennessee Two, and were pure and stark, with only the essentials; guitar, light percussion and Johnny's unmistakable voice and presence. The challenge is to maintain this fantastic charm and personality while filing out the sound and creating bold re-interpretations. The remix producer's reverence and gratitude are essential to the process. The goal is to bring the sensibility and technology of 2008 to recordings universally accepted as timeless with the blessing and support of the custodians of Johnny Cash's legacy.
