One final new album from the Man In Black

A previously unreleased collection of Johnny Cash songs will soon be available. "American VI: Ain't No Grave" the final collaberation between Johnny Cash and Rick Rubin, hits the stores on February 26. It would have been Johnny's 78th birthday.

"...The implied agency of this Reuters headline is amusing: Johnny Cash releasing another posthumous album. Someone’s releasing the album, but I’m pretty sure it’s not Johnny... “Ain’t No Grave” is heavy on acoustic covers, including Sheryl Crow’s Redemption Day and Kristofferson’s For The Good Times, as well as A Satisfied Mind, the opening track on Dylan’s unloved 1980 album Saved. Cash also covered Tom Paxton’s Can’t Help But Wonder Where I’m Bound, Bob Nolan’s Cool Water, and dusted off Ed McCurdy’s anti-war Last Night I had the Strangest Dream, which also appears on his 1969 concert recording At Madison Square Garden..."
