(9-12-12 pt 2) WORLD IN BLACK...On Sept. 12, 2003 we lost the great
JOHNNY CASH. I can't think of another Pop, Rock, or Country performer who ended
his/her career with the dignity and the artistry of Johnny. He made his best
work just before he died...for most recording artists it's the other way around.
It should be the gold standard for how singers and songwriters create in their
'golden years' ; a model for people like IGGY, BOWIE, and The STONES. But
sadly I don't see anyone following JC into that promised land.

CONNECT: While being interviewed for the "Lust For Life" documentary IGGY stated
that Johnny's "I Walk The Line" was the structural model for The STOOGES' "No
Fun".
