Johnny Cash, b. 2/26/32

Released today, Johnny's final American Recording, produced by Rick Rubin, America VI:Ain't No Grave.
HERE Rick talks about his work with Johnny and the final recording.
I had the pleasure of meeting Johnny on a number of occasions throughout my teenage years. He was a big man, in both stature and presence, with that deep drawl and booming laugh. It would take some time for me to fully appreciate having met the man in black all those years ago.
