WELCOME TO LPCDREISSUES
Johnny Cash is a hugely celebrated, enigmatic figure in American roots music and one whose legacy continues to thrive and influence millions worldwide. His roots are well documented as is his lengthy career, but his early work with guitarist Luther Perkins and bassist Marshall Grant is not so widely acknowledged. In particular, their early appearances on Country Style USA and Guest Star have remained somewhat obscure. This treasure trove of archival recordings from 1958 and 1959 captures some of the earliest known recordings of Johnny Cash, back when he started in the mid-'50s with his Tennessee Two. These broadcasts are presented here in their entirety, with digitally remastered sound, detailed background notes, and rare photos.
