Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley and Company.

Here are some links to articles, that I felt were interesting! Enjoy!

Singer, Songwriter, Guitarist Jerry Reed Dies at 71.

R.I.P. Jerry

I did not realize just how many artist that he had collaborated with! I had always assumed that he wrote Tom Jones' "Green, Green, Grass of Home", but I was mistaken. Apparently Tom Jones did however collaborate with many of the same artist that Jerry Reed had, when Jones had decided to cross over into the "Country Market".

A Really Nice Web-Page Devoted to Elvis Presley's Gospel Music!

From Heaven's Gate.Com

This is really nice & professionally put together Johnny Cash fan-site, including a gospel page! Although Elvis is known for being the "King of Rock "N" Roll" and Johnny Cash was "The Man in Black", It is my opinion, that they are the best gospel singers of all-time as well! Elvis also had gospel backing from the Jordana-ires, while Cash had gospel backing from the Statler Brothers!

I know Johnny Cash did a version of this Bruce Springsteen tune but can't find it.

This guy was Johnny Cash's son in law, and was successful as a songwriter(Johnny Cash, Elvis Costello, Dave Edmunds) and record producer(The Damned, Elvis Costello, Graham Parker, Carlene Carter, Paul Carrack), but this was his only hit for himself.

I found this recording of Johnny Cash singing the old "Traditional Folk Standard" "Sloop John B" by accident. Most people are familiar with the Beach Boys' version. "Sloop John B" is one of my favorites, by the group, but this version is really cool, as well and different.

Enjoy!

Great tune no matter who sang it and made it big.
