Cover Notes: Cash recorded an album's worth of unreleased, self-penned songs in 1993 ahead of him signing with American Records. In early 1993, the legendary Johnny Cash found himself between contracts in his then nearly 40-year career and recorded an album's worth of songwriting demos at LSI Studios in Nashville of songs he'd written over many years. Some thirty years later, John Carter Cash, the son of Johnny and June Carter Cash, rediscovered the songs and stripped them back to just Johnny's powerful, pristine vocals and acoustic guitar. Along with co-producer David 'Fergie' Ferguson, the two invited a handpicked group of musicians that played with Johnny, including guitarist Marty Stuart and the late bassist Dave Roe, along with drummer Pete Abbott and several others, to the Cash Cabin, a hallowed space in Hendersonville, Tenn. where Johnny would write, record and relax, to breathe new life into the tracks, taking the sound back to the roots and heart of the songs.
