Johnny Cash set

A set of Johnny Cash recordings. "Hey Porter" and "Folsom Prison Blues" are re-recordings for Columbia from the early 1960s, while "Big River" and "Cry, Cry, Cry" are 1961 TV live recordings. "Five Minutes to Go" was the soundtrack for the movie of the same name, in which Cash played the role of a crazy killer. Last but not least, "I Got Stripes" is a 1959 Columbia recording. I choose these recordings because I think they are much overlooked by fans, for example the great "Five Minutes to Live" (my favorite here) can't even be found on YouTube (which has nearly everything of Cash). Hope you enjoy these!
