Johnny Cash - Rest in Peace


Goodbye to the man in black. We all knew that this day was coming after years of ill health, but that doesn't make it any better.

For me, John was one of those dudes who was always there in your consciousness from childhood (even though I didn't grow up with his music), like an iconic image - the perfect archetype. Dependable, uncorrupted. Personally, I don't own much of his output beyond the Sun years, but maybe it's time I started to. He was beyond cool - he just *was*. And they don't make 'em like that anymore.
"Cdelplato- Ive got the Wall of Voodoo 12' 45 of 'Ring of Fire'.... really the most unusual tribute to the 'Man in Black'. (the Morricone Themes on the other side are strangely cool also)"

Yup, that's the one I have also. Like Cash, Stan Ridgway is one of a kind as well. Great storytellers.

CD
Springsteen opened the Chapel Hill show last night with a very nice version of 'I Walk The Line'. (BTW, he opened on the 10th with Warren Zevon's 'My Ride's Here')
Listen to "September When It Comes"Johnny and Rosanne Cash
duet sadly prophetic haunting tune,just try not to cry.
