Rick Rubin, producer/legend, has announced that 2 more Johnny Cash “American” recordings are in the works. Perhaps you remember American IV: The Man Comes Around, the album that fueled Cash’s reemergence into pop culture with the Nine Inch Nails cover, “Hurt.” Well, shortly thereafter June Carter Cash passed away and Johnny told Rick, “I need to have something to do every day. Otherwise, there’s no reason for me to be here.” The pair then recorded 60 songs and just a week after finishing the recordings Cash passed away. The first album, American V: A Hundred Highways, will be released on July 4th. Says Rubin, it “may be the strongest album we’ve made together. It’s not leftover scraps. It’s the real deal. And it’s incredible for his legacy.”
