Cash squinted across the cotton fields that defined the horizons of his boyhood in Dyess, Arkansas. It was his third trip home in ten years. A cotton stalk with a ragged boll that the picking machine had missed snapped under his soft black boot. 'I can remember my mother out chopping cotton in that field when she didn't feel like it. I could pick two hundred pounds of cotton right now, not that I want to. It's something you don't forget.' As a teen-ager twenty years ago ---- they called him J. R. then ---- he picked 350 pounds a day, dragging a nine-foot-long sack down the tangled rows. Today, at thirty-eitht, Johnny Cash is a superstar firmly embedded in the firmament of country music." ---- The Restless Ballad of Johnny Cash (Introduction by Christopher S. Wren)..
