  1. 9.0 |   Rolling Stone

    There are jailhouse weepers, lullabies and gallows humor like "Five Minutes to Live" – a jaw-dropping testament to the depth of the man's songbook

  2. 8.0 |   BBC

    A timbre as deep as a canyon and cool as the other side of the pillow

  3. 8.0 |   Subba Cultcha

    While not everything is indispensable – unless you’re a Cash fanatic – there are the best part of sixty songs between the two discs, so you’re getting value for money in every sense of the phrase

  4. 7.0 |   Blurt

    When Cash cut the eleven 1955 demos included here, he was playing to his strengths

  5. 7.0 |   All Music

    Essential for Cash collectors and hardcore fans, adding even more depth and weight to his enormous stature in American popular music
    Read Review

  6. 6.7 |   Pitchfork

    The portrait of Cash on this second disc is, unfortunately, fuzzy and poorly defined. It showcases everything we know about him and very little we don't know

  7. 6.0 |   The Independent

    You can almost hear the cash tills ringing in Sam Phillips's mind as he heard these for the first time

  8. 6.0 |   PopMatters

    For all the inevitable flaws, the release of From Memphis in Hollywood is more than welcome, well worth the two discs

  9. 6.0 |   Independent on Sunday

    It's the opening section which really whisks you back to another age

    An interesting time capsule

Latest Reviews

David Byrne  Who Is The Sky

The artist’s new album of bright, bustling pop is positioned as a celebration of reasons to be cheerful. Often its fountain of optimism feels like a firehose of forced positivity Pitchfork

Ed Sheeran  Play

On the enjoyably moreish Play, the ‘culturally Irish’ star sounds as if he’s back on form. Although we’ve only had time for a quick listen The Irish Times

Baxter Dury  Allbarone

This record plays like his shot for glory, and with tracks as hooky and well-constructed as "Mockingjay" or the title track, there's no reason he shouldn't hit the big time All Music
