| | FT December 2003: Opinion: Johnny of the Cross |
| | Cash was always taking risks here—he was one of the first musicians outside the folk world to cover songs by Bob Dylan. | | | Johnny could sing about murder and God in the same song and with the same voice because to do otherwise would have been dishonest. | | | On Johnny’s later records, we hear a musician not content to rest on his laurels or piggyback on others’ record sales. |

| | Amazon.com: The Essential Johnny Cash: Music: Johnny Cash |
| | Johnny Cash was an American music icon known to the world as the "Man in Black." His booming deep bass voice is surely one of the most recognizable in country music history. | | | Cash left Sun in late 1958 and signed with Columbia in hopes of occasionally recording his first love, gospel music, which Sun owner Sam Phillips would not allow. | | | However, it is hard to argue with covering the first two major peaks in Cash's career like this and to leave the single album assessment of the final renaissance he enjoyed in recent years, exemplified by his cover of Nine Inch Nail's "Hurt," for down the road. |

| | Perhaps the most widely recognized voice in country music, Cash recorded more than 1,500 songs. | | | So Cash's last four albums -- "American Recordings," "Unchained," "American III: Solitary Man" and "American IV: The Man Comes Around" -- were filled with songs by Tom Petty, Nick Cave, Tom Waits and Nick Lowe (his former stepson-in-law), along with old chestnuts and his own work. | | | Late in the decade, Cash's radio popularity was fading -- a more contemporary sound was moving into country -- and he broke with Columbia. |
