Johnny Cash & Friends

Johnny Cash worked as a teenager on his parents’ small cotton farm. Life was hard and music a relief. Religion was also important, and both this and his early family life continued to influence his writing. Original songs such as ‘Five Feet High And Rising’ and ‘In Them Old Cottonfields Back Home’ commemorate his early years. A very popular character both on and off the stage, Cash built up many friendships with other artists during his long career. Featured here are some of the very best recordings by some of those friends, as well as by Cash himself.
