Johnny Cash - The Fabulous (1958)

Johnny Cash - The Fabulous  Johnny Cash

  The Fab Johnny Cash was his first album for Columbia Records moving away from his long prior relationship with Sun Records.  There is not a bad song on this album with mostly just Johnny and his acoustic Gibson guitar.  Each song is like a story with Cash telling the tale verse by verse with his lonely guitar sounds.  "Id rather die young" is an incredible moment for Johnny Cash with some great guitar work and sombre vocals and lyrics......everybody should hear this song!
