Johnny Cash Country Christmas Johnny Cash Country Christmas is a Christmas album and 78th overall album by American country singer Johnny Cash, released on Delta Records in 1991 (see 1991 in music), in-between Cash's contracts with Mercury Records and American Recordings. It came out in two different Versions with different cover art. It contains 15 or 13 songs, all Christmas classics and traditional holiday songs. A number of songs (such as "Blue Christmas", "Silent Night" and "Joy to the World") had previously been recorded by Cash - multiple times, in the case of "Silent Night" - for previous Christmas albums. It was also released on the LaserLight label in 1992. The 15-track version includes two additional Christmas songs, "White Christmas" and "I'll Be Home for Christmas". Four tracks do not feature Cash but instead feature vocals by his wife, June Carter Cash and the Carter Family. This was the last Johnny Cash release within his lifetime to feature the Carters, who had been a staple of his live show and studio recordings since the early 1960s, as the sisters would not participate in his subsequent work for American Recordings; nor would June Carter Cash, though a 2000 private release, "Return to the Promised Land", would feature her alongside her husband.
