JOHNNY
CASH
–
American
V
Sad,
bittersweet
posthumous
conclusion
to Johnny
Cash
and
producer
Rick
Rubin’s
collaborative
series.
This
12-track
finale
contains
two
cash
originals
(Like
The
309
and
I
Came
To Believe),
the
rest
of the
music
including
that
of Bruce
Springsteen
(Further
On Up
The
Road),
Hank
Williams
(On
The
Evening
Train),
Gordon
Lightfoot
(If
You
Could
Read
My Mind),
Rod
McKuen
(Love’s
Been
Good
To Me),
Hugh
Moffatt
(Rose
Of My
Heart)
and
the
traditional
arrangement
of God’s
Gonna
Cut
You
Down.
It’s
quite
an emotional
journey.
The
album
closes
with
Herscher
&
Klein’s
I’m
Free
From
The
Chain
Gang
Now,
the
familiar
image
from
Cash’s
career
of a
man
who
faltered,
ending
up in
jail,
finding
some
sort
of redemption
- closing
a chapter
on a
true
legend.
