Johnny
Cash, born J. R. Cash, (26 February 1932 - 12 September
2003), also known as "The Man in Black,"
was a multiple Grammy Award-winning American country
singer-songwriter. Cash is widely considered to be
one of the most influential American musicians of
the 20th century.
Cash
was known for his deep, distinctive voice, his trademark
dark clothing which earned him his nickname, the boom-chick-a-boom
or "freight train" sound of his Tennessee
Three backing band, and his demeanor. He traditionally
started his concerts with the introduction "Hello,
I'm Johnny Cash."
Much
of Cash's music, especially that of his later career,
echoed themes of sorrow, moral tribulation, and redemption.
His signature songs include "I Walk the Line",
"Folsom Prison Blues", "Ring of Fire",
"That Old Wheel" (a duet with Hank Williams
Jr.), "Cocaine Blues", and "Man in
Black". He also recorded several humorous songs,
such as "One Piece at a Time", "The
One on the Right Is on the Left", "Dirty
Old Egg-Sucking Dog" a duet with June Carter,
Jackson, and "A Boy Named Sue"; rock-and-roll
numbers such as "Get Rhythm"; and various
railroad songs, such as "Rock Island Line"
and "Orange Blossom Special".
He
sold over 90 million albums in his nearly fifty-year
career and came to occupy a "commanding position
in music history". (Credit:
