Description
LIMITED EDITION CLASSIC LPs. STEREO. HIGH-DEFINITION PREMIUM VINYL PRESSING FOR SUPER FIDELITY. 180 gram VINYL -AUDIOPHILE PRESSING. This quintessential edition features one of Johnny Cash’s most difficult to find LPs originally released on the Columbia label in 1962: Hymns from the Heart. Apart from one of his originals (“I Got Shoes”) it’s made up of standard hymns that he sang in church growing up before he became a professional musician and famous star. In fact it has a more traditional hymn-gospel feel than Cash’s previous album of hymns Hymns by Johnny Cash (Columbia 1959) which doesn’t really sound that different from his prior secular work. The LP remains accessible to Cash fans regardless of their religious persuasion. While the earlier gospel album matched his booming voice with the classic rockabilly and country rhythms of guitarist Luther Perkins to surprisingly good effect on this record Cash delivers a more conventional country-gospel effort. This sensational LP has been remastered and packaged in this very special collector’s edition which also contains 4 bonus tracks from the same period comprised of a couple of hard-to-find seven-inch singles featuring The Carter Family: “Busted”/“Send a Picture of Mother” and “(There’ll Be) Peace in the Valley (For Me)”/ “Were You There (When They Crucified My Lord)”.
