Huge Johnny Cash Box Set To Be Released In October

Columbia Records is prepping the release of a massive Johnny Cash compilation, Johnny Cash: the Complete Columbia Album Collection. The comp features over 60 CDs total.

Thirty-five of those 60 are getting their first CD release ever, while two of the discs-Johnny Cash with His Hot & Blue Guitar and The Singles-are exclusive to the collection.

Several rare discs are included, such as Johnny Cash pa Osteraker, recorded at Osteraker Prison in Sweden in 1972, Strawberry Cake, recorded at the London Palladium in 1975, and Koncert V Praze, recorded at the Sport Hall in Prague in 1978.

The focal point of the set is Cash's first 19 albums (1958 - 1967), released for the first time in mono sound on CD. Each album is packaged as a mini-LP CD with its original artwork. The box set is due October 30.
