Johnny Cash: The Life by Robert Hilburn


Format: mobi/epub
Length: 688 pages
Genre: Non-Fiction/Biography
Date: 29 October 2013


The definitive biography of an American legend.

In Johnny Cash: The Life, Robert Hilburn conveys the unvarnished truth about a musical icon whose colorful career stretched from his days at Sun Records with Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis to the remarkable creative last hurrah, at age sixty-nine, that resulted in the brave, moving "Hurt" video.

As music critic for the Los Angeles Times, Hilburn knew Cash well throughout his life: he was the only music journalist at the legendary Folsom Prison concert in 1968, and he interviewed Cash and his wife June Carter for the final time just months before their deaths in 2003. Hilburn's rich reporting shows the remarkable highs and deep lows that followed and haunted Cash in equal measure. A man of great faith and humbling addiction, Cash aimed for more than another hit on the jukebox; he wanted to use his music to lift people's spirits and help promote what he felt was the best of the American spirit.

Drawing upon his personal experience with Cash and a trove of never-before-seen material from the singer's inner circle, Hilburn creates an utterly compelling, deeply human portrait of one of the most iconic figures in modern popular culture - not only a towering figure in country music, but also a seminal influence in rock, whose personal life was far more troubled, and whose musical and lyrical artistry much more profound, than even his most devoted fans ever realized.


Author:

I was pop music critic and pop music editor of the Los Angeles Times from 1970 through 2005, and am now writing books. A memoir, "Corn Flakes with John Lennon and Other Tales from a Rock 'n' Roll Life," was published in the fall of 2009. My new book, "Johnny Cash: The Life," will be the definitive look at one of the most complex and influential artists ever in popular culture. It will be published this fall.
