he made a bunch of idiot hipsters start paying attention to something their grandparents used to care about.
as for the other 3 questions, i wonder how much actual knowledge about music you really have. maybe i need to emphasize an preceding adjective. 1 - his style of music conceived many other styles on the rise? what? are you trying to say he was a trendsetter? that's not quite the case, influential yes, innovative, not so much. 2 - the man in black angle? so you're going to attempt to explain that a man's wardrobe is what solidified his cultural significance as a writer and performer over the actual words and performances he's done? .... yeah... 3 - his climb back to power, through drugs? screw it i'm bolding it. Cash's climb back to the top had very little to do with drugs and very lots to do with Rick Rubin. hell, Rubin had to get Soundgarden to record a countri-fied version of 'Rusty Cage' before Cash would agree to cover it, you really think he would have covered NIN a few years later if this hadn't proven successful? |

Guys - obviously, this thread was made by someone young whose knowledge of music and music history is limited - which in turn explains why he or she is asking for our help. The original post was respectful and friendly. Still, I see most here have taken the opportunity to get an excercise in hostility and to stroke your own egos. Is this really the kind of forum you guys want? An elitist one where any sign of weakness like missing knowledge about a band or artist or being a newcomer means you get to act like a dick?
And to cadgod, if you'd read this following bit of information, you would have known we're not keen on this sort of threads : Quote:
Instead, I suggest you ask your questions in this thread : http://www.musicbanter.com/country-f...hnny-cash.html Locked.
