Johnny Cash was born on February 26, 1932 in Kingsland, Arkansas.  His deep bass-baritone voice and mysterious nature made him one of the most memorable and unique artists of all time. Happy birthday, Johnny!   In his honor, I put together a video playlist of some of my favorite performances:

 

“I Walk the Line” on The Tex Ritter Show in 1955:
“Folsom Prison Blues”:

“Ring of Fire” in 1968 at The Ryman Auditorium:

“Orange Blossom Special” on February 24, 1969 at San Quentin State Prison:

“Get Rhythm”:

“A Boy Named Sue”:

“The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” cover from his last album (American IV: The Man Comes Around) in 2002:
