The man in black
Apparently Johnny Cash has a new album out.
The last 3 American recordings (with Rick Rubin) have been fantastic so I suppose this one will be more of the same.
Review.

I can never decide between Diana Ross & The Supremes or Smokey Robinson & The Miracles? I tend to lean towards Diana Ross though.

Classic Country
Marty Robbins' Gunfighter Ballads is one of the finest C&W albums of all time. You'd probably recognize El Paso - "Out in the West Texas Town of El Paso..." If you don't have it pick it up. It's part of a pretty good Columbia/Legacy Records series called American Milestones. Others in the series include Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson.
