96.  American Recordings 1. (L.P) Johnny Cash.
Produced by Rick Rubin this was the record that brought Cash back to a contemporary audience. A hard, sparse acoustic set of some of his most affecting performances, including the former son-in-law Nick Lowe's 'The Beast In Me' and the man's own 'Nam vet story 'Drive On'; the terror is in the emotional mask Cash sings in, or more precisely, when it slips. (M.H. Mojo)
