Los Angeles Times
Their contributions serve only to enhance Rosanne Cash's renditions of songs that Johnny Cash understood to delineate cornerstone facets of American culture.
Read Full Review >Paste Magazine
Although meant to honor father Johnny’s musical tastes, The List better serves as an exquisite reminder of Rosanne’s own history of artistic rebelliousness.
Read Full Review >The Phoenix
He'd be proud of what his little girl's done with that sheet of paper.
Read Full Review >Billboard.com
Cash not only infuses love into her delivery on the collection but also proves herself a supreme song stylist.
Read Full Review >All Music Guide
The List is a renewal and a testament to life, and it belongs to her father as much as it belongs to her, a beautiful restatement of her father's passions, only now, they've become his daughter's treasures, as well.
Read Full Review >PopMatters
On The List, it’s a remarkable testament to her broader artistry that the same consistency and generosity extends to a batch of cover songs.
Read Full Review >Slant Magazine
The List still pulls off a rare feat: It's a covers album that stands as an essential addition to an artist's catalogue.
Read Full Review >Mojo
It's all about Rosanne's voice. And she's rarely sounded better. [Nov 2009, p.96]
The Onion (A.V. Club)
She’s in fine voice on The List too, crooning the classics as though they were lullabies--as if she were drawing on memories of her father singing softly in the dark of night, trying not to disturb the ghosts that haunt these songs.
Read Full Review >Entertainment Weekly
The List is a testament to both Cash Jr.'s vocal talents and Cash Sr.'s catholic taste.
Read Full Review >Spin
Drawing from a syllabus of 100 essential country tunes compiled by dad Johnny in the 1970s, Rosanne Cash delivers the most enjoyable history lesson imaginable.
Read Full Review >Under The Radar
The album standout, however, is Cash's wonderful version of Hank Cochran's "She's Got You." [Fall 2009, p.75]

Awesome, the duets are especially good. The best part of the album is the duet with neko case!
