I have vague memories of watching his tv show as a young kid during the early 70s.
I really oughta make it my business to pick up a copy of a cd of his hits & I'd urge lots of "under 25s" to do the same.
His music is a significant part of genuinely American music. Not this "pop-country" we've been seeing in the past 10 years.

I instantly had even higher regard for him when a few years back, he took out a full page ad in Billboard to give the finger (literally. There was a huge photo of it) to the country music industry who now refuses to play his & other old school entertainers' music.

Literally one-of-a-kind & with music the way it is now, we won't see another like him.

Johnny Cash will never sing that, again. He's gone!

Did you figure that one out all by yourself?

Here's the photo:D

Johnny Cash was one of a kind. I have a lot of his records in my record collection. R.I.P. Johnny.

Johnny Cash was awesome. He is greatly missed.

:crying:

Here's a copy of the actual ad:

Heyy! Thanks for putting that picture up! If ever there was an image that said "rebel!", *this* is one of em! The man was awesome.
