Compilation From Sun Vaults On 180g Vinyl LP!
Remastered From Original Tapes!
France's leading deejay in the early '80s, Ding Dong (real name Alain Pourquier) puts together a selection of recordings from Johnny Cash. The sleeve artwork features a host of vintage photos of Johnny Cash in his prime.
For the Ding Dong series, Alain Pourquier made visits to the hallowed Sun vaults in Memphis, Tennessee, where he listened to countless tapes, working his way through 1,228 outtake tape boxes and in the process selecting the best quality masters he could find. After listening to more than 11,000 tracks during February and March of 1983 and identifying a whole stack of unissued sides, he brought the master tapes back to England, where he embarked upon an amazing one-man re-issue program. Not only did he master all the recordings, he designed the sleeve artwork and wrote the sleeve notes. His excellent contacts amongst record collectors around the world enabled him to come up with a whole stack of rare artists' shots to use for the album artworks. The resulting albums, both various artists compilations and solo major artists, have over the years acquired iconic status and are now much sought after by fans of the ground-breaking Sun sound. Now lovingly restored, selected titles are presented in their full original glory for today's vinyl buyers. They are essential purchases not only for Ding Dong's fans seeking replacements for their worn-out original copies, but also for today's younger buyers discovering this exciting music for the first time.
