All legends start somewhere, and With His Hot and Blue Guitar is where the legend of Johnny Cash began. Remastered in honor of Sun Records’ 70th Anniversary, Cash’s debut album was also the first LP issued by Sam Phillips on the legendary label. The Man in Black is backed by the Tennessee Two on classic Cash hits like “Folsom Prison Blues,” “Cry, Cry, Cry” and “I Walk the Line.” This 70th Anniversary edition features liner notes from rock critic and Cash biographer Robert Hilburn.
