[ Not Now Music / 2 LP ]
Release Date: Monday 23 January 2012
Johnny Cash played an influential role in a number of genres, from country through gospel to rock'n'roll. From humble beginnings in Arkansas during the Great Depression, he forged a career that spanned nearly half a century and produced music right up until his death in 2003. Cash fought his demons daily in the form of drugs and alcohol, and his turbulent life would be immortalised on the silver screen as the 2005 motion picture Walk The Line. Here we have one of Cash's early works, released at a time when the world was still getting to know one of the most entertaining and enigmatic artists of the 20th century. Sit back and enjoy the Man in Black as he hits his musical stride.
