DYESS HOME OF J CASH HAS NEW BIRTH
Restored Johnny Cash home stirs memories says this article, but I'm thinking there were some very hard times in this house as JR was growing up. Nonetheless, this young man grew to be an iconic figure that still changes people with his life, legacy and songs. J Cash lives! READ MORE.
J Cash LIves via Young Thai band that plays Johnny Cash classics.
I was at a friend's house; he's from Thailand. So, he like Thai music and I like Johnny Cash music. I found this video and we were both happy! Check it out. Great to see young people diggin' the Man in Black. Also, the second lead sounds a bit more like Brian Setzer's stuff, but all in all, real fun. Check it out and let me know what you think in the comments below!
Wok (?) the LIne? Staten Island Rockin'?
Yeah, you heard right. Wok the Line. Wish I had sound or a video.
This article makes me remember an episode from the Johnny Cash show (I tried to find info about it but could not find any; if any reader can help, let me know). Anyway there was a man who was from Japan and was a Johnny Cash impersonator (of sorts) who sang Johnny Cash songs in Japan.
I think he was singing Folsom Prison or I Walk the Line and toward the end of the song he acted as if his guitar was not working. Quickly someone off camera came running up and checked all of the connections and then the guy turned the guitar over and said, "Oh here's the problem; Made in America!".
It was funny at the time because things "Made in Japan" had a bad reputation. Things have surely made a turn around today with Japan's innovation and workmanship have surpassed ours in many ways, but I digress.
Here's the article that had Staten Island Chinese Restaurant rocking.

Johnny Cash's "coolest" songs per Rolling Stone
I've mentioned it before in this blog when the car was for sale to the owners of Pawn Stars; it was a fun show episode but they didn't buy it because the owner wanted too much for it. It's now up for grabs again...
In the period he hosted his own TV music variety show on ABC, the Television Network ordered and purchased the 1970 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow long wheelbase Saloon in question they gifted Cash with.
