(born J. R. Cash; February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003)
Johnny Cash is one of the best-selling music artists of all time,
having sold more than 90 million records worldwide. His genre-
spanning music embraced country, rock and roll, rockabilly,
blues, folk, and gospel sounds. This crossover appeal earned
him the rare honor of being inducted into the Country Music,
Rock and Roll, and Gospel Music Halls of Fame. His music
career was dramatized in the 2005 biopic Walk the Line. A
trademark all-black stage wardrobe earned him the nickname
“The Man in Black”.Â
