Johnny Cash - Rest in Peace


Goodbye to the man in black. We all knew that this day was coming after years of ill health, but that doesn't make it any better.

For me, John was one of those dudes who was always there in your consciousness from childhood (even though I didn't grow up with his music), like an iconic image - the perfect archetype. Dependable, uncorrupted. Personally, I don't own much of his output beyond the Sun years, but maybe it's time I started to. He was beyond cool - he just *was*. And they don't make 'em like that anymore.
I don't think I've ever read a quote of Dylan's quite so plain-spoken, so 'out of persona'. Of course it's entirely appropos - he's also simply a fan, just like any of us. Chris, where did this originate?
