Free Music Review: An underappreciated Johnny Cash album? Yep, it exists.
Hit: 5 Stars

I've noticed that whenever Johnny sang with June, his voice took on a different quality. It's a sound of vitality, and sounds more upbeat, even when singing about sad things. Listen to this album's "Jackson" on Folsom Prison and compare it to the rest of the album to get a sense of what I'm talking about. Most of the times, Johnny was satisfied with showing that vitality once or twice per solo album when he'd sing a duet with June.

This is a whole album of that upbeatness and vitality. This is Johnny at the top of his game, and at times it sounds as if the two are ready to get down to business right on stage (if this were a live album, who knows?). "Long-Legged Guitar Pickin' Man" is where June shines the most, "Jackson" is "Jackson," and their covers of "It Ain't Me Babe" and "I Got a Woman" rock hard. The only minor stumble is early on Ray Charles's "What'd I Say," but once June comes in, Johnny gets his act together and they bring the original album to a satisfying conclusion. The reissue has a couple of bonus tracks at the end which are sort of unnecessary, including a brief modified rendition of "America the Beautiful" which is pretty much Johnny solo with June coming on just at the very last line. You can notice the difference between his solo stuff and his duets with June right there.

This is a fantastic, underappreciated album in the Cash canon. Pick it up.

Back in their commercial heyday as a duet team, June Carter Cash always managed to bring out a lighter, more playful side of her often somber and serious husband, the famed "Man in Black." Among these 13 tracks (11 of them originally released on the 1967 album plus 2 bonus tracks) are familiar titles like the naughty, cat-scratch-fever hit "Jackson" and their soulfully twangy version of Bob Dylan's "It Ain't Me, Babe." But Cash and Carter also breathe understated fire and shared sensuality into more unlikely material, like their loping, folky reading of Richard Fariņa's "Pack Up Your Sorrows," a pair of Ray Charles R&B standards--"I Got a Woman" and "What'd I Say"--and memorable original compositions like the class-conscious "Shantytown" and a nostalgic love lament called "Oh, What a Good Thing We Had." --Bob Allen
