American IV:  The Man Comes Around.  This was the fourth and final album of Johnny Cash's American Recordings tracks to be issued in his lifetime and for me, it is the best.  It contains his hit version of "Hurt", and as good as that was, for me, the real highlights are elsewhere.  Whether it be his versions of more recent rock songs like "Personal Jesus" or "I Hung My Head" or Johnny Cash revisiting a classic like "Give My Love To Rose" (arguably the saddest tale ever sung) or  his moving versions of chestnuts like "Danny Boy" and the poignant closing tack "We'll Meet Again", this album is packed with great music.  The only track I could live without is "Desperado", a song I've never cared for and which is made all the more mundane following as it does in the wake of the quasi-religious experience here that is "Danny Boy".

Recorded some 6 months subsquent to the "Kind of Blue" sessions these live performances stand for me as one of the finest Cannonball Adderley`s leader dates ....
