The Recordings of  

The Singles

Johnny Cash recorded and released over 150 singles. His first occurred in 1955 as "Johnny Cash and The Tennessee Two" introduced themselves to the world on the Sun label. The song was "Cry, Cry, Cry." Over fifty years later Cash is still releasing singles. Three years after his death,  American Recordings did a world premiere of "God's Gonna Cut You Down" in 2007.

Many have defined his music as unique and stepping out of musical boundaries. Through it all the sound has stayed constant.
