Album Review
June Carter Cash has lived a charmed life: late-night duets with Elvis Presley, a movie appearance with Robert Duvall, a rose from James Dean, and a Grammy Award-winning songwriting career with her husband Johnny Cash. But, to hear her sing such moving hymns as "Diamonds in the Rough" is to enjoy the holy, country hospitality of a simple countrywoman of a pure and spiritual heart. Also on Press On are such gems as a touching, acoustic version of "Ring of Fire," which June co-wrote. The Man in Black himself delicately duets with June on "The Far Side Banks of the Jordan." This is a beautiful acknowledgment of mortality and hope for an afterlife. Throughout this album, June plays the Autoharp. This type of strummed dulcimer lends a light, bouncy feel to these pieces that often contain no traditional rhythm section. She displays a worldly sensibility on such folk-rock numbers as the bitter "Losin' You" and humor mixed with wisdom in "Tiffany Anastasia Lowe." In this piece, the hip grandmother comments on the movies of Quentin Tarantino. June concludes this warm and personal disc as she began it, with a moving spiritual, "Will the Circle Be Unbroken." Her musical forebear A.P. Carter of the Carter Family wrote the piece.
Customer Reviews
JUNE CARTER CASH .. "Press On" real country
June CARTER Cash, a real gem in the world of home grown country artists.. Although a backwoods country singer as her iconic Family, Junes voice and phrasing is a reminder of how close early American blues and early American country most likely are related, at least 1st cousin's if not brother and sister. If real nitty gritty country is what You seek You won't be disappointed with this collection.. especially a version of RING OF FIRE which she wrote, done in an organic genuine way... sparse. Junes voice, harpsichord, Johnny's acoustic and a fiddlin violin here and there, I admit to a little bias in that I always had a crush on her but crush or not, she is a product of the "First Family" of country, THE CARTER FAMILY, but in true CARTER form, was the continuation of an artform that is slowly drifting towards rock and roll.
June Carter Cash A Real Gem
Simply put this is one of the finest country CD's out there today. Everyone owes a great deal to the Carter Family for there infulence in and on country music. It should be a must for any true fan of country music...also check out her other cd's...Hope you enjoy this CD as much as I have. Take Care and Enjoy!
Press On
She is great,never really heard her on her own as in this CD.No wonder Johnny Cash loved her and missed her so.The world is a better place with what she did and what she left us.
