American V:  A Hundred Highways
4th of July, 2006
 
In the months leading up to his passing on September 12, 2003, JOHNNY CASH had been recording new material with producer Rick Rubin. On July 4, 2006, American V: A Hundred Highways, the all-new Johnny Cash album taken from those sessions, will be released on the American Recordings label through Lost Highway. It will include the last song Cash ever wrote, "Like the 309".


Help Me
God’s Gonna Cut You Down
Like the 309 (the last song written by Johnny Cash)
If You Could Read My Mind
Further On Up the Road
The Evening Train
I Came to Believe
Love\'s Been Good To Me
A Legend In My Time
Rose of My Heart
Four Strong Winds
I’m Free From the Chain Gang Now
"These songs are Johnny\'s final statement. They are the truest reflection of the music that was central to his life at the time. This is the music that Johnny wanted us to hear."
- Rick Rubin

JOHNNY CASH\'S "AMERICAN V: A HUNDRED HIGHWAYS" ENTERS THE CHARTS AT #1

This Marks the Man In Black\'s First-Ever Number One Debut

 

Nashville, TN - July 12, 2006 -- Johnny Cash\'s "American V: A Hundred Highways" (American Recordings/Lost Highway) debuts at Number One on both the Billboard Top 200 Albums and Top Country Albums charts. The album, which was released on the Fourth of July, takes the top spot with sales in excess of 88,000 copies, according to Neilsen/Soundscan.

Since 1958, while seven of Cash\'s albums have reached Number One on Billboard\'s Country Album charts, only one other album of his has reached the Number One position on Billboard\'s Top Albums charts - 1969\'s "Johnny Cash at San Quentin." "American V" is Cash\'s first-ever release to debut at Number One.

"It meant so much for Johnny to be accepted by a new audience," said Rick Rubin, who produced "American V" and heads up Cash\'s label, American Recordings. "Nothing would make him more proud than this overwhelming vote of acceptance. Thank you."

"American V: A Hundred Highways," is the fifth installment of Cash\'s critically-acclaimed American Recordings series, and was recorded in the months leading up to his passing on September 12, 2003. The 12 songs on the CD address love, life, trains, mortality and faith, and the result is an album that is sparse, honest, and inherently beautiful. "American V" has also received tremendous media praise "...remarkable"/Rolling Stone; "...a powerful, final statement...4-stars"/People; "...arresting"/Washington Post; "...sad and gorgeous"/Village Voice; and Entertainment Weekly\'s, "Johnny Cash\'s latest shows he still has the power."

Quote
"...remarkable...the performances are brave and mesmerizing..." -- Rolling Stone

"The new original Like the 309 is magnificent. Some selections are heart-wrenching... " Blender

brutal, unflinching honesty about the world and himself. -- Los Angeles Times

"...sad and gorgeous." -- Village Voice

"...some of the country legend\'s finest material." Denver Post

I guarantee that "God’s Gonna Cut You Down" is going to be in 3 movies in the next year, much like "The Man Comes Around" was a few years ago.

Timbaland probably produced much of it.  I hear that Rick Rubin produced something off of it as well.  Rubin has also produced some of Cash\'s stuff, so that may be the link there.

Post by: Me! on November 08, 2006, 06:25:48 pm
Rubin produced the last five Johnny Cash albums (not counting the box set of unreleased stuff, and the bonus disc from the box set of all hymns) which IMHO are some of the best shit of his entire career.

I saw the video on youtube... it\'s really vivid & there are so many awesome shots!  Personally, I don\'t really like the song, though -- he\'s got so many better tunes/lyrics than this one.  Kinda weak, imho.

Newest Johnny Cash collection arrives in stores March 6th on Columbia/Legacy!


“I am thrilled that recordings of some of Johnny’s favorite Gospel songs have been put together in a new CD.  Johnny and June both loved to sing those old songs, which expressed so well the deep personal faith which was very important in their lives, and which has been so often overlooked in stories about them.”

—BILLY GRAHAM


He was a first generation Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee, and the
youngest living artist ever inducted into the Country Music Association Hall Of Fame – yet no music ever meant more to Johnny Cash for his entire life and recording career than the gospel upon which he was raised.


For the first time in the digital era, a single CD – containing 24 tracks (three of which are previously unreleased) and over 67 minutes of music – is devoted entirely to the music that was nearest and dearest to

Johnny Cash’s heart, the sanctified hymns and traditional folk spirituals, contemporary church ballads, and evangelical evergreens that were the cornerstone of every show he ever performed, and nearly every album he ever recorded.  Johnny Cash Ultimate Gospel contains over 67 minutes of music, spanning from 1957 to 1981 with 8 tracks with the Carter Family!  This is the most in-depth single CD collection of Johnny\'s Hymns, Spirituals, & Traditional Songs. Cash – Ultimate Gospel will arrive in stores March 6th on Columbia/Legacy.


Some of the featured titles are: “Daddy Sang Bass,” “The Preacher Said ‘Jesus Said’” with Rev. Billy Graham, “Far Side Banks Of Jordan” with June Carter Cash, “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,” “The Great Speckle Bird,” “How Great Thou Art,” “Were You There (When They Crucified My Lord),” “(There’ll Be) Peace In The Valley,” “When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder,” “In The Sweet By And By,” “Amazing Grace,”“Children Go Where I Send Thee,” and more!

People who agree on little else can agree on Johnny Cash. He carried a unique ability to reach all people at once. He was admired by prisoners and presidents, by preachers and punks. Cash was a man of God who spoke for the condemned. Johnny Cash\'s America looks at the unifying vision he carried with him through 50 years in music.

From the filmmakers behind "Respect Yourself: The Stax Records Story," this acclaimed documentary (and accompanying soundtrack) looks at The Man in Black in a whole new light. How did Cash navigate the issues of his day, and what can we learn from his example? Here are gathered a broad spectrum of Americans--politicians, musicians, writers, family--to reflect on the power and meaning of Cash\'s extraordinary life.

This documentary features many never before seen performances capturing Cash across the years and in all circumstances. Intimate, revealing, and provocative, Johnny Cash\'s America shines a new light on a musician, an entertainer, an American.

DVD:
Full-length documentary includes interviews with:
Al Gore
Bob Dylan
Snoop Dogg
Sheryl Crow
John Mellencamp
Lamar Alexander
Rosanne Cash
Tim Robbins
and many others.
Narrated by Academy Award Winner® Chris Cooper.
