Johnny Cash (1932-2003) was an American singer-songwriter whose deep bass-baritone and uncompromising honesty made him one of the best-selling recording artists of all time. Rooted in country and rockabilly, he crossed freely into folk, gospel, and rock, earning induction into both the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. His landmark 1968 live album at Folsom Prison revived his career and cemented his image as a champion of the forgotten, while his late-career American Recordings series with producer Rick Rubin won him a new generation of listeners.
