'Man in Black' Johnny Cash dead at 71.
One post that I never thought I would put here for awhile was a farewell to Johnny Cash. He seemed to carry on despite all the hardships and health problems and was still making great music to the end with last year's American IV: The Man Comes Around. An American musical and songwriting legend, he never backed down and was to me one the of the greatest country singers ever. His vision was always uncompromising, original and true. The world had lost a great one today and that is a fact. He was and always will be the one true American Idol.
