Cash does a superlative cover of Steve Earle’s classic about loving guns a little too much. I love Earle’s original, but I prefer this much tougher, rockin’ arrangement.

“Highway Patrolman” – Johnny Cash

Another stellar cover of a song from Bruce Springsteen’s “Nebraska” album. I find it great that so many terrific artists have covered songs from this understated classic. Sean Penn based the script for his directorial debut “The Indian Runner” on this song.

I’m not a huge fan of U2, but “One” from 1992’s “Achtung Baby” is one for the ages. An almost perfect song / performance. Except Johnny Cash’s cover tops it. Breathtaking, emotional, brilliant stuff.
