Starting and ending with ‘I Walk The Line’ made famous by Johnny Cash, we made a playlist powered by Hittin’Around. It has Neil Young, Jody Miller, Ray Charles, Jerry Lee Lewis and many more.
IMDb: (Let’s not get confused : In “I Walk the Line” (the movie 1970) Tawes is the sheriff in a godforsaken little hole somewhere in Tennessee. A man of strong moral fibre he is always quick to judge others and follows the law zealously. Then he meets Alma, a young beautiful girl who turns his world upside down.
IMDb : (But the movie about Cash in 2005) – a chronicle of country music legend Johnny Cash‘s life, from his early days on an Arkansas cotton farm to his rise to fame with Sun Records in Memphis, where he recorded alongside Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins – is named “Wal the Line”
NNDB : (But “Walk the Line, the song ) is the title track of a Mary (ex Supremes) Wilson album released in 1992 by the doomed CEO label.
Rolling Stone : (Let’s get to the point) Cash began work on this track while he was in Germany with the Air Force, years before he would ever enter a studio.
Jerry Lee Lewis Official MySpace page : Mr. Lewis, a charter member of the Rock and Roll Hall Fame, a legend…an icon. At 70 years of age, Mr. Lewis continues to perform for live audiences and has been called a “national treasure” by the Smithsonian Institute.
Hank Snow Music Centre : In 1926, Hank went to sea as a 12-year-old cabin boy on fishing schooners based out of Lunenburg to escape his abusive step-father and never returned to school. With his first earned income he bought his first guitar, a T. Eaton Special for $5.95.
Amazon : The New Jersey sisters, Bea, Geri and Marge, (a.k.a. The Fontane Sisters) who backed the late great Perry Como on many of his late 1940s/early 1950s RCA Victor hits, came up with their first solo hit in 1951 when their version of The Tennessee Waltz reached # 20 in January. Although no threat to Patti Page, it did well enough to encourage RCA to try again with Let Me In
dynoVoice : Variety: “The Toys are a pleasant group. Their harmonies are good and they have the feel of the youthful dances. The kids are individually good singers. They prove this by alternating the lead amongst themselves. However, their forte is still as an act, rather than a dance group.”
