Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Interesting facts
Very interesting. I have just became a fan after seeing the movie walk the line.
Rating: - The Odyssey of "God's Superstar"
Five Stars -- not because this is a literary masterpiece. By his own claim, Cash wrote this himself in longhand, with a little help fixing his "50's high school grammar".

I wish he'd delved into his courtship of June, but that's just me being nosy. All in all a nice read and another wonderful memento for his ... Read More
Rating:  - From One Extreme to The Other, Demons to God.
He looked just like an average person when he was young. Later he became a personna to beat all. He fulfilled his destiny to sing God's praises to the convicts in prison and to try to live up to the twelve steps of Alcoholics Anonymous.
The Man in Black was asked if he was "going to a funeral" when because he started to wear black outfits when he performed, going back to 1954, was called a troubadour, an English balladeer, like Waylon Jennings. His theme song was 'I Walk The Line,' and ... Read More
