The third volume in our chronological documentation of Johnny Cash's epic career covers the period before Cash became a superstar following the San Quentin and Folsom albums and his ABC-TV series. During this period, he almost forsook country for folk music. During this period, he made some of the most radical and experimental country albums ever recorded, as well as hits like Understand Your Man, Orange Blossom Special, and The One On The Left Is On The Right. It also includes the album 'Keep On The Sunny Side' with The Carter Family, as well as much rare, unreleased material and foreign-language songs.
