Johnny Cash Walks The Line...
Danny Goldberg, Circus, March 1970
JOHNNY CASH the Misfit: Drug induced and being busted for possession of benzedrine at the Mexican border happened long after he had made a name for himself for 'I Walk The Line', 'Ring of Fire', and of course 'Folsom Prison Blues'. He considers 'I Walk The Line' his best song still. He's made a career out of being enigmatic, degenerate and well meaning. And talented. Because behind all of the myth there is that irresistible Cash voice that lets him get away with it all.
