Signed Copy of The Rambler (1977) |
Besides being the most important American Storyteller since Mark Twain, Johnny Cash was also an ingenious artist. His conceptual album, The Rambler, contains no well-known hits. The quality and one-of-a-kind sound that he always brings to the table remain at its core. The music is the heart. This 20th century fable of a wanderer in search of lost love, and the characters he meets along his journey, is a unique one in the colossal Johnny Cash catalog. The songs all begin with part of this narrative, as the Rambler heads aimlessly west in search of a love he knows is already gone. Talk about a boogie woogie rythm and blues masterpiece, The Rambler is it. Next time you have an hour or so, treat yourself to this much-overlooked, musical adventure. (
