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.
