Johnny Cash

Wow.. cool tattoo! He is amazing... I do love him! Even if people think I am crazy...... that's because, well I am!!!

 

Johnny Cash & June belong in the Classical section! I disagree Jim. Country music did not forget Johnny, as he said in an interview 'It's a young person game and it time for June and I to take a little vac. and enjoy some things." That is not word for word but in the ball park!

 

I think Johnny Cash is the best country/folk singer ever...That Man makes me cry, you gotta listen to his last records too...
I think my favorite Johnny Cash song is Man In Black...

 

Johnny Cash and Hank Williams are for me the best country artist.

 

Well you got George Jone, Haggard, Williams, Jr., Nelson.

But you are right, they are among the best

 

Hank is no.1 in country terms for me, Johnny is no.2.:H

 

Yeah Cash is amazing... But I think Bob Dylan's a little better... After all Cash sung "It Aint` Me Babe"

 

Is Dylan country though? OK Nashville Skyline is country, and odd songs since then - but really it's something different with Bob.

 

Well he WAS Folk.. I think they're pretty alike... Especially in case of Folk music... and John Wesley Harding was really Country and So was Desire.

 

but Johnny Cash said his music is not country music but folk

 

I bumped into Johnny Cash at the Nashville airport in 1977. He was coming out of the men's room as I was going in.

A couple minutes later, I saw Roy Clark coming down the hall with a suitcase on wheels. The very first one I ever saw.

If God had a voice, it'd be that of Johnny Cash

 

I simply disagree with "Johnny was forgotten by country music in the 90s." I read where he made the decision to back off to enjoy life and time off the road. He and June spent a great deal of time in Jamaica with family.

 

Johnny may have forgotten country music in the 90s.

Health problems plagued JC thoughout the 90s ,however in 92, the first of 3 Highwaymen was released . The first one did very well, very well!!!

 

I love Johnny....he just knows what to say, how to say it, and when...

 

I don't know the name of the song but there's something he recorded that was played in a music department store I was in.It was about dying & crossing the river Jordan? to reunite with his Mother & Father up in Heaven;sorry to be so vague,but It was a very moving song & he died not long after I heard it.

 

definately (i think) one of the greats of country music.

 

Give my Love to Rose is quite possibly the greatest love song ever written.
