The heart of Smith's well-researched, meticulously assembled discography is the detailed chronology of every Cash recording date through April 1984. Information given includes session date, location, musicians, producer, songs recorded (including takes), songwriter and release history. Scholarly notes aid the user in tracing retitled or redone versions of the same song. There are separate indexes for U.S., European, and bootleg releases; a song title index; and a listing of the songs Cash performed on his ABC television series. Superbly done; for appropriate research collections. Library Journal
