My parents played all his records constantly, which was good because when it wasn't Johnny Cash it was classical music, which at the time I hated. I LOVE it now. I use to love 'A Boy Named Sue' and the rest of his hits. 'Hurt' became my favorite Cash song when it came out. Rick Ruben is a genius producer.

Ironically, today if Johnny auditioned for American Idol (and was under 30), Simon would say he has no future in music because he doesn't sing like Usher or Justin Timberlake. IMHO, Johnny's voice is better than those over-tuned teeny-boppers who are here today and gone tomorrow.
