A kind of Cliff`s Notes version of Johnny Cash`s early Sun Records career, THE ESSENTIAL SUN SINGLES provides both entertainment and more than enough musical edification for the casual listener to hold her own in a conversation with aficionados. Maintaining a rough chronological order, SINGLES takes a swift tour through Cash`s three years at Sam Phillips`s ground-breaking label, starting with the primal-sounding "Cry! Cry! Cry!" and pausing to note the increasing musical sophistication that producer Jack Clement brought to songs like "Ballad of a Teenage Queen" and "Goodbye Little Darlin`." It`s an ideal primer for newcomers to Cash`s earthy 1950s blend of country and rock & roll.
