Forever Words

Recommended Posts

the Cash family published a book of Johnnies poems 'Forever Words' a couple years ago.  last year they came out with a cd/dvd album with some of the poems set to music by notable artists-and some of his old buddies.  excellent stuff.

'you tell me that i must perish

like the flowers that i cherish

nothing remaining of my name

nothing remembered of my fame

but the trees that i planted

still are young

the songs i sang

will still be sung'

If you put Shaq’s feet on any artist today, those shoes would still be mostly empty.

the 1960's-the most recent past major turning point for the country-had johnny cash, chuck daniels, joan baez and bob dylan all singing the same songs.  the media now finds its best ratings in division and that's about all we will get.
