Synopses & Reviews
This catalog is divided into four major sections: singles, extended-play albums, long-play albums, and compact discs. An appendix lists the liner notes Cash has written for his own releases, as well as those of a number of prominent performers over the years. It also lists music videos Cash has appeared in. An accompanying index is a composite of the four sections and the appendix, listing albums and compact disc titles as well as the song titles included in those releases.
Johnny Cash's popularity seems to have reached new heights during 1994, making this Catalog, along with the two earlier discographies, invaluable to fans, who will appreciate the comprehensive coverage. That coverage includes over 1,000 song titles on 228 different record labels, 431 singles, 108 extended-play albums, 1,408 long-play albums, and 254 compact discs from the United States, Canada, and 26 foreign countries.
Review
[An] outstanding reference tool for those interested in the nearly forty year recording career of one of America's most enduring and talented musicians.... John Smith has done a superlative job in cataloging Cash's extensive recordings. The book is simply and elegantly arranged, making its use both straightforward for the researcher and surprisingly entertaining.... This text will be of use both to those interested in the career of Johnnny Cash as well as to country music historians and collectors.Journal of American Culture

Synopsis
The year 1994 marks the 40th anniversary of the start of the remarkable recording career of country music performer Johnny Cash. This Catalog lists over 2,200 releases from around the world along with the contents of numerous extended-play albums, long-play albums, compact discs, and singles. A section is also devoted to "bootleg" material. This Catalog is a useful companion volume to the two discographies published earlier by Greenwood, which listed only a few of his "major" releases. In terms of popularity, the music of Johnny Cash has spanned not only continents, but decades of fans.
