Johnny Cash - American V

sonicl · 07.11.2006, 03:01 PM

Anyone got it or heard it? How does it compare to numbers I to IV?

finding nobody · 07.11.2006, 03:04 PM

i have it.
but aside from IV i havent heard any of the other american recordings.
it's a very mysterious, creepy, chilling, recording

krastian · 07.11.2006, 03:13 PM

I still haven't heard it, but all I've heard was good things about it.

Would someone in the know say that all the American Recordings albums are worth getting? I've thought about getting American V and working my way backwards. Are the American recordings all pretty good? I have no Cash studio albums I only have the Folsom Prison album, and have been thinking of getting some studio stuff.

yes america v is good, but i would maybe go for something like live at san quentin

I reccomend The Sun Boxset

It's 3 discs. Everything he did from 55-58
As far as the American Recordings go IV and V are both very good. Those are the only ones I have There's also a VI comming out

If it's of some use to someone, I only have American III and IV, and they have so beautiful though sad songs. I really cry to some of them. I'd like to get V too though. Have heard assorted things too, like "Folsom Prison Blues" but nothing I own, sadly.
Johnny Cash could make really spiritual records. The fact that his own life was so sad in the end is really heart-shattering.
