With the posthumous release of American VI: Ain’t No Grave, the legendary Johnny Cash wraps up a career that remains largely unparalleled to this day.
The 10 songs included here were recorded in the time after the unfortunate passing of his wife June Carter Cash and prove to be a hauntingly uplifting end to his career. Although Cash’s voice here is a frail shadow of its past self, there is a certain comfort to hearing his voice one more time on previously unreleased material such as Sheryl Crow’s Redemption Day, Kris Kristofferson’s For The Good Times and the eerily prophetic I Don’t Hurt Anymore and Can’t Help Wonder Where I’m Bound.
