Customer Reviews of Silver
Painful to listen to Whoever paired Johnny Cash with the producer and backup musicians on this album ought to be shot. "Overproduced" is an understatement on a number of these tracks.
"(Ghost) Riders in the Sky" was the big single on this album, but it hasn't aged well, tinkling synthesizers and guitars with special effects sound especially jarring with Cash's rough hewn voice.
Trust me, you buy this album, you'll listen to it once....but I'll wager you don't listen to it a second time.
Others are lukewarm, but I love this album
This is one of my favorite Johnny Cash albums and always has been, although it appears that other Cash fans are less enthusiastic. I'm not sure why, as I feel the Brian Ahern production, using members of Emmylou's Hot Band, adds something extra to his music without in any way detracting from the main focus - Johnny's very distinctive singing voice and style.
The big hit was Ghost riders in the sky, which reached number two on the American country charts. Johnny has never got as high as that again by himself, although he hit number one as a member of the Highwaymen.
My favorite track is I'll say its true, on which Johnny is joined by George Jones. Other great tracks include the opening The L and N don't stop here anymore and the track which closes the original album, I'm gonna sit on the porch and pick on my old guitar.
Two more duets with George Jones are added as bonus tracks - I still miss someone and I got stripes, both of which had been solo successes for Johnny around twenty years earlier.
Great Cash, Distracting Production
When SILVER first came out, it was significant in that Cash was collaborating with some of the hottest writers and musicians of the time. It also marked his first recording of "(Ghost) Riders in the Sky" and a hot, acoustic-driven studio version of "Cocaine Blues" (still a risky topic for a post-outlaw country album). Still, as much as I admire Brian Ahern's production of Emmylou Harris albums, I prefer the more spare production that Rick Rubin has given Cash's more recent efforts. The rugged integrity of Cash's performance, in my opinion, does not benefit from the polish of Ahern's production.
