I remember as a little kid listening to Johnny Cash being played on our old Hi-Fi by my father. I listened to recordings of his live concerts to prisoners in absolute awe.
I even watched him when he made a guest appearance on the show "Colombo." Cash played a musician who killed his wife and stepdaughter by putting them to sleep with drugged coffee, and then jumping out of the Cessna he was flying with a homemade parachute and then the plane crashed.
Hollywood runs from God at every turn. The bible says those who hate the light run from it.
Myself, I will be forever inspired by Cash's honest (brutally honest) testimony and story.
P.S. Cash said his wife June once danced naked on a piano for him, and he said she was "just sexy as all hell." What a rascal!
When I was very, very young and first starting to sleep in my own bedroom, my dad would put a stack of Johhny Cash records on the floor model RCA stereo at night to keep me company.
I literally grew up with the sound of his voice.
I've been through all the usual life phases of musical tastes and genres but I *always* kept my "Cash stash", no matter what...:)
