- Reminds me of Cash's American recordings; Mostly excellent
Regarding the first two reviews:
It seems that if it was okay for Johnny Cash to take songs from nine inch nails, tom waits, leonard cohen, bob marley and depeche mode (!) and put his unique stamp on them I'm not sure why it would be wrong for other artists to do similar work with his catalog.
Some of the tracks do not work (snoops version IS atrocious, some are extraordinarily good. Unfortunatley some people do not have the same open mind that Johnny Cash seemed to have.

- Not Great...but Interesting
I'm a country music fan, so I can't rate this album as great, but it is interesting. Listeners should not try to compare it to Johnny Cash's own work, but should consider this a totally separate undertaking. I listen to the album occasionally and enjoy it. I think the mood of the album is somewhat dark, but sometimes that is just what I want to hear.

- Oh, the purists....
The great Johnny Cash proved in his lifetime to be more open minded than his fans. He adopted the same philosophy of another music great, Duke Ellington, who said:
"There are two kinds of music. Good music, and the other kind".
Cash took songs from Trent Reznor, Depeche Mode, Roberta Flack, and interpreted them his way. It is only fair that other artists render tribute to Cash by playing his songs as well. Get over it, people.

- Yeesh.
Johnny Cash/Various Artists
"Johnny Cash Remixed"
(Compadre Records, 2009)
-----------------------------------------------
Yeesh. What a misfire. Well, no, actually, not a misfire, just a really dumb idea to begin with. I mean, yeah sure, it's great and groovy that everybody wants to be down with the late, legendary Man In Black, but this half-baked dance/electro/hip-hop remix set is just plain awful. About as subtle as a flaming bag of poo. It was cool when De La Soul sampled "Three Feet High And Rising" back in 1989, but that's about as far as we needed to go. Really. (Axton)
- Not enough Johnny
Too little Johnny and too much other stuff. Johnny's voice wasn't up-front. The backing music was instead prominently featured. I have heard better and will seek them out here on Amazon.
