Up Through The Years 1955-57

In 1954 Johnny Cash moved to Memphis, where he took a radio announcing course. During the evenings, he played country music in a trio that also consisted of guitarist Luther Perkins and bassist Marshall Grant. In late 1954 or early 1955, Johnny Cash and the Tennessee Two went for an audition at Sun Records, and were signed. For Sun Records he recorded future classics, like Folsom Prison Blues, I Walk The Line, and Get Rhythm - re-issued here in premium sound quality for the first time, re-mastered from the original master tapes in the Sun archives. In mid-1958, Johnny Cash left Sun Records for Columbia.
