Johnny Cash is my favorite country singer. All of the others are tied.

This was made right before he passed away. The look on his wife's face says it all.

Trent Reznor reportedly threw a huge fit when it was announced Johnny planned to cover his song above. When Trent saw the music video, he was blown away and praised the whole project.

Johnny worked on a couple of box sets shortly before his death. That was some of his best work, IMO.

I've read bits and pieces of info about them in different places, but I have nothing saved on my phone, tablet, or computer...or, if I do, I can't find it. :-[

The "American" series may be the most popular, and was produced by Rick Rubin, featuring songs like "God's Gonna Cut You Down," "Ain't No Grave," and "Hurt." You can purchase the CD's separately, or in a set.

I believe that "Unchained" and "Unearthed" were both individual albums, but released about the same time. "Rusty Cage" and "One" are two of my favorites from these albums.

I also like some of his classics like "Ring of Fire" and "Walk the Line," but I feel that Mr. Cash's voice improved with age, and I much preferred his later performances of those songs.

I wish I had more details about the albums, but I honestly have never purchased one. I instead have individual songs from various albums downloaded onto my phone. However, a quick Google search of the above titles should answer any questions you may have.

Yep!

He also performed a couple of live concerts in his later years, but I've only seen parts of them. There's also a YouTube clip of him playing a guitar and singing in someone's house, which may have been about his last known performance.

my voicemail has JC saying 'Hello, I'm Johnny Cash',  then I cut in and say, "actually its just rik, leave a message'. 

I can sing every word of at least his top twenty, and people say I nail it.

The Hurt video for me, is the single most powerful music video ever made.

Yeah, that scene with the picture of his wife kind of sealed the deal for me.
