The Man in Black shows hints of gray on American III: Solitary
Man his first studio album since being interrupted by a series
of serious illnesses in 1997. While the inevitability of aging
has been the downfall of many of his contemporaries Johnny
Cash’s dark convictions and powerful presence have gone from
rough hardwood to solid stone. The stark beauty of his 1994
release American Recordings and the warm friendly collaborations
on 1996s Unchained combine to create two distinct moods: one of
living-room jam sessions with invited friends and another of
stark solo (and near-solo) songs highlighting Cash’s years and
stories. Partnering once again with Tom Petty the two join
together on Petty’s own I Won’t Back Down and the Neil
Diamond-penned title track. Cash also lays his lonesome hands on
U2s One and reunites with fellow outlaw Merle Haggard on the
stubborn I’m Leavin’ Now. These duets and well-known covers
show an inviting side of Johnny Cash. But the real highlights of
the album are those reminiscent of his American Recordings songs;
they feature just the man and his guitar with nothing else to
clutter the story. The creaks and despair of the vaudeville song
Nobody tell of a man who has become hardened by his solitude
while the Palace hymn I See a Darkness soars with the passion
of a thousand gospel choirs even though there are only two men
singing. Although at times it is difficult to hear past Tom
Petty’s growl or Sheryl Crow’s young harmonies in the more
popular songs Cash covers these obscure prison songs and country
ballads sound as honest and heartfelt as his own compositions. At
age 68 his warm baritone may waver but his passion never does
