I suspect we all have musicians and recording artists of whom we periodically think, "Why do I only own one CD of theirs?" Johnny Cash was one of mine. My favorite songs of his were "Ring of Fire", "Tennessee Flat Top Box", and "The Long Gray Veil". But I've heard so very few of his songs.
A few years ago, I toured the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland (with this guy and his uncommonly-tolerant wife) and saw some of Cash's artifacts on display there. Until that time I had pretty much thought of Cash as only a country music artist, when in fact he was much more than that.
(Aaron also laments Cash's passing today, and provides some links.)
