Cash's Electric Revival
4 out of 5 stars

This Cash record, a standout from the early 80s, features some great Bruce Springsteen tunes. The vinyl version sounds superior to any CD or digital copy I've come across, which often lacked depth. On this record, the studio production truly stands out. It's also a notable change in Cash's discography, leaning into a more contemporary, electric vibe. Take the track Wanted Man, for instance, it's got a fresh rockabilly twist that builds on the original San Quentin version.
