I loved listening to Johnny Cash as a child; we had a battered old 8-track tape of his greatest hits and I listened to it and sang along constantly. Especially "A Boy Named Sue."
yesterday I was in Starbucks and on the counter they had displayed a CD of "Johnny Cash's favorite music" which included songs by Gillian Welch and others. I did not make the connection; I wonder if it was a coincidence, since the news did not announce this until this morning?
