Description: JOHNNY CASH Boxed Set of 4 CDs THE LEGEND 1955-2002 - Free Shipping! I would say this boxed set is like new but I'm being conservative in case I missed a small mark on the case. The CDs look new to me. See photos. Enjoy this box set with a center insert that includes Johnny's life story and photos from his life. This is a nicely done collection and presentation for "The Man in Black" which includes songs that were never previously released. ************ JOHNNY CASH: THE LEGEND is easily the most far-reaching collection ever assembled in celebration of the pathfinding work of the "Man in Black." Singer and songwriter, sinner and Christian, John R. Cash, son of a share-cropper from the dirt-poor, cotton-farming town of Kingsland, Ark., battled his demons on stages from Folsom Prison to Carnegie Hall. Wielding an acoustic guitar and his patented "boom-chicka-boom" Tennessee two-beat, Cash (1932-2003) essayed a multifarious repertoire that drew from nearly every page of the American Roots Music Songbook. This four-CD set, covering the yers 1955-2002 and arranged thematically, commemorates the Golden Anniversary of Cash's recording career, his debut-on-disc was for the fabled Sun label, one of seven record companies from whose archives this anthology draws in order to paint a many-sided musical portrait of JOHNNY CASH: THE LEGEND. The majority of the 104 songs herein (28 of them written or co-written by Cash) were made for Columbia, for which he was a best-selling artist from 1958 to 1986; seven selections are previously unreleased. If there were a Mt. Rushmore for voices, Johnny Cash's bass-baritone, at once weathered, slightly tremulous, and singularly cavernous, would be one of those at the summit.
