Johnny Cash: A Law Unto Himself
Barney Hoskyns, MOJO, December 1996
WE'RE PASSING through Andover, Kansas, scene of one of the worst tornadoes in American history: a monstrous twister that levelled the little town and took thirty lives just a few years ago. Every building in sight looks like it was put up in the last ten minutes. Human history has been eradicated here.
