John R. "Johnny" Cash (February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003), born J. R. Cash, was an American singer-songwriter, actor, and author, who has been called one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Although he is primarily remembered as a country music artist, his songs and sound spanned many other genres including rockabilly and rock and roll—especially early in his career—as well as blues, folk, and gospel. Late in his career, Cash covered songs by several rock artists, among them the industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails and the synthpop band Depeche Mode.
Johnny Cash was known for his deep, distinctive bass-baritone voice; for the "boom-chicka-boom" freight train sound of his Tennessee Three backing band; for his rebelliousness, coupled with an increasingly somber and humble demeanor; for providing free concerts inside prison walls; and for his dark performance clothing, which earned him the nickname "The Man in Black". He traditionally started his concerts by saying, "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash." and usually following it up with his standard "Folsom Prison Blues".

Favorite Pictures from Lists I Have Submitted (15 person items)"
Johnny looks so suave and sophiscated with the cigarette and the tuxedo. He looks like he should be in a James Bond movie sitting at a roullette wheel in a casino and introducing himself as "Cash...Johnny Cash".
Here is the famous shot of Cash giving the finger. He rented an entire page of a trade paper and had this posted as an expression of his feelings toward Nashville after they deserted him and he achieved commercial and critical success independently with the success of the American"

Top 10 Classic Country Music Stars (10 person items)"
Johnny Cash was a Country Music Superstar, but he was not defined by Country Music. That is too restrictive a classification for an artist like Cash.
After initially writing some songs in the service, Cash came to Sun records in Memphis. His early Rockabilly style with his band, The Tennesse Two, had their pantented 'Boom-Chicka-Boom' sound. Johnny modestly said in a later interview, this was due more to their limitations as musicians rather than any pre-conceived style. Still, they were a "

Worst Films of Grammy Stars (15 person items)"“Door-to-Door Maniac,” a.k.a. “Five Minutes to Live”
He’s going to murder you… but first, psychopathic Johnny Cash is going to sing to you! There may be no better example of casting against type for a figure who would go on to be beloved by tens of millions of Americans, unless it’s Ronald Reagan as a mobster in “The Killers.” Cash would write in his memoirs about how hopped up he was on pills in those days, and you can believe it in his wired performance as a merciless sociop"

Hi I'm a Famous Alcoholic (37 person items)"The man in black fueled his outlaw image not only with alcohol, amphetamines and barbiturates, but with actions far beyond the ordinary. In 1965, Cash's car started a forest fire that consumed several hundred acres of land and killed several dozen endangered condors. He became the only person at the time to be sued by the federal government for starting a forest fire. Several years later, the country singer attempted suicide after growing tired of the pain his various addictions inflicted upon h"
