This review is from: Johnny Cash Artist's Choice (Audio CD)

Johnny Cash drew inspiration from a wide variey of sources, as the recordings on this CD prove. Though all the artists and songs are familiar, it is interesting that he chose cover versions of two popular songs - "Four Strong Winds," done here by the Chad Mitchell Trio, was written and recorded by Ian & Sylvia, and the CD has Linda Rondstadt doing the Eagles "Desperado." The two songs outside the mold are "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," which can be heard in Cash's version on his "American IV, The Man Comes Around," CD and Springsteen's "Highway Patrolman."
Like most compilations, if you already like the songs & artists, you will like the CD. I do, so it gets 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Collection, December 27, 2003

So, I am new to Johnny Cash and to country music but this compilation chosen by Johnny Cash is outstanding. It brought back wonderful memories of a more innocent era. From Hank Williams' "Lovesick Blues" to Kris Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee" and Bob Dylan's "The Times They are A-Changin'", I am thoroughly enjoying this wonderful album - my daughter gave it to me for Christmas and though I would never have bought it for myself (I rarely buy music for myself), I cannot remember a more wonderful music gift!

This review is from: Johnny Cash: Artist's Choice Music That Matters to Him (Audio CD)

I bought this cd because the web page said it had the Johnny Cash version of The times they are a-changing, dueting with Bob Dylan. Unfortunately, it was only sung by Bob Dylan. This is not the product that was offered!
