Johnny Cash

I can't say that I ever loved Johnny Cash, even after I briefly worked with him on a commercial in the late 70s. He had everything I loved --a great story, a real voice, good songs, he independently went his own American way-- so maybe it's just my northeastern prejudice against "country" music. And I've been finding more and more tracks I really like over the years, spurred on by the Rick Rubin American series.

But I have to say I love this track. (Strangely enough I discovered it on an NRBQ's Yankee Stadium, a wonderful LP with a great cover of "Get Rhythm" sung by Al Anderson.) It rocks, it rolls, it swings. Who needs more?
