Johnny Cash tuvo un sueño en el que escuchó "Love's Ring of Fire" de Merle Kilgore y June Carter - con versión original de Anita Carter en su LP "Folk Songs Old and New" (Mercury, 1962) y lanzada en single- acompañada de "trompetas mexicanas". Probablemente le influyó "The Lonely Bull", el primer éxito de Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass.

Cash le dijo a Anita: "Te daré unos cinco o seis meses más, y si no logras convertirla en éxito, la grabaré tal y como la siento".

Como el original de Anita jamás alcanzó el éxito, Cash la grabó "a la suya", añadiendo los vientos estilo mariachi de su sueño y retitulándola simplemente "Ring Of Fire". La editó el 19 de abril de 1963. Ese mismo sonido lo utilizó también en su versión de "It Ain't Me Babe" de Bob Dylan contenida en su LP "Orange Blossom Special" de 1965 (ese mismo año con ese mismo tema The Turtles consiguieron un 'hit' en clave pop). Tanto Mother Maybelle como las hermanas Carter aparecieron de manera destacada en la grabación de "Ring Of Fire" de Cash haciendo coros. Johnny no sólo modificó el arreglo de la canción, sino algunas de las frases iniciales del original de Anita Carter.

La hija de Cash, Rosanne, dijo más tarde sobre este "Anillo de Fuego": "La canción trata sobre el poder transformador del amor, y eso es lo que siempre ha significado para mí y eso es lo que siempre significará para los hijos de Cash".

SUNDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO “Ring of Fire” live in Oregon--https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZJGxy-65NU "Ring of Fire" is song about the transformative power of love. It was written by June Carter and Merle Kilgore. The lyrics were inspired by a book of Elizabethan poems kept by her uncle, the legendary A.P. Carter. June's sister Anita Carter recorded a version of it, which didn’t ignite the charts) before Johnny Cash took a casual interest in it. Then he had a compelling dream about going to Heaven and hearing “Mexican horns” at St. Peter’s Gate, and the “Ring of Fire” song was playing. So he daringly recorded it with mariachi horns and it was a big hit. His children are protective of their father’s legacy as, in 2004, they declined an offer to license the song to Preparation H for advertising (no joke). This video (taken by Uma Robin Mackey) was an off-the-cuff busking event in Bandon, Oregon (9/3/22). At the very end you'll see some bonus footage by an enthusiastic special guest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZJGxy-65NU

♫ Ring Of Fire ♫

Being a little on the tired side tonight, I went in search of something that I haven’t played often or recently, and almost immediately came across this one by the “man in black”, Johnny Cash.  Now, I am not a fan of country music, though I can tolerate some John Denver, Willy Nelson, Kenny Rogers, and some of the ‘softer’ country artists.  However, when I think ‘country music’, there are a few…

After they returned from exploring the surroundings it was already late and they got hungry. And since Sai and Vlad are afraid of fire (thanks to Jack, the Pyromaniac)... Jack: "I can do this!" Sai: "I doubt it, but we have no choice."

Jack to himself: "I can do this!"

We all know what follows...

*Sigh*

'I fell into a burning ring of fire. I went down down down The flames they went higher and it burns burns burns that ring of fire that ring of fire that ring of fire'

“Claude King made his best known recording in the spring of 1962. "Wolverton Mountain," written with Nashville veteran Merle Kilgore, was based on a real character, Clifton Clowers, who lived on Woolverton Mountain in Arkansas. Clowers was Kilgore's uncle. King and Kilgore agree that the original (Kilgore) composition of the song was not very polished, and that King eventually shaped the song into what it became. According to long-time King guitarist, Robin Vosbury, Kilgore came to numerous shows and asked everybody to call him "Uncle Clifton." The song became an immediate hit, staying at number one for nine weeks during its 26-week run on the Billboard country chart. It was also a Top 10 in the Billboard Hot 100. It sold over one million copies, and was awarded gold disc status.”

🎶 Remembering a Legend: Johnny Cash

In 2003, country music lost an icon, a true musical pioneer - Johnny Cash, "The Man in Black." With his deep, distinctive voice, he captivated hearts across generations. 👢🎸

Johnny's journey began in the cotton fields of Arkansas, where he developed a love for music and an enduring passion for storytelling. He turned his life's hardships into poetic lyrics, becoming a symbol of resilience.

His career skyrocketed as he signed with Sun Records in the '50s, and his hit "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash" became an iconic introduction that sent shivers down spines worldwide. His raw, authentic sound and outlaw image made him a legend.

Let's talk about "Ring of Fire" 🔥 This song isn't just a chart-topper; it's a declaration of love's burning intensity. Written by June Carter Cash and Merle Kilgore, it explores the fiery passion of their budding romance. Johnny's rendition, with its iconic mariachi horns, turns it into an unforgettable classic.

"Ring of Fire" was featured on his album "Ring of Fire: The Best of Johnny Cash," solidifying his status as a genre-defying artist.

Did you know Johnny Cash's first prison performance was at San Quentin in 1958, marking the start of a special connection with inmates?

Let's celebrate Johnny Cash's enduring legacy and the emotions he stirred in all of us.

No matter where I went as a kid, the “boom-chicka-boom” of Johnny Cash and The Tennessee Three were playing in the background, with emphasis on the Sun sessions and the prison albums. Cash was one of the unifying sound-streams amongst family and friends who’d, otherwise, never agree on what to listen to. With his own brand of rebellious humility, he sang about the temporal and the eternal, intertwining the world view of a hardscrabble working man with that of a mystic. Throughout my life, in consistent and sometimes surprising patterns, Cash spoke to me about spiritual matters, even if I didn’t get it on the first pass. Musically he proved that stark and simple could be amazingly effective. HB JC and thank you for being a role model. Please enjoy my cover of “Ring of Fire”…

Country Joe McDonald opening his solo set on the second day of the Woodstock festival.

McDonald had arrived at the festival on Thursday, the day before it was to start. He wanted to see the whole three days of music performances. In a recent interview, he said, “I always like to hear the other bands playing as I learn new things from them. I saw lots of the acts at Monterey and Woodstock and enjoyed myself very much.” On Saturday, he was sitting on the side of the stage when festival producer John Morris asked if he would fill in some time with an acoustic set while Santana’s equipment was being set up. He reluctantly agreed, and someone found him a guitar and a rope to use as a strap. Chip Monck introduced his “very fond friend, Mr. Joe McDonald,” and McDonald walked out to the microphone wearing a green Army shirt with sergeant stripes and a name strip that read “EVERETT.” A scarf was tied around his left arm and another around his head above his dark sunglasses.

After greeting the audience and asking them if they were “having a good time,” he began his nine-song set with “Janis,” a song he had written two years earlier at the request of his former girlfriend Janis Joplin. The song, which appeared on the second Country Joe & the Fish album, I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-To-Die, was an odd choice for the first of the set; its slow pace and slightly atonal chord changes make the melody difficult for some listeners to appreciate. The audience gave him polite applause. He followed with “Donovan’s Reef” from the band’s fourth album, Here We Are Again, and three country standards: “Heartaches by the Number” (by Ray Price and Vince Gill), “Ring of Fire” (by June Carter and Merle Kilgore), and “Tennessee Stud” (by Jimmie Driftwood), all of which would appear on his second solo album, Tonight I’m Singing Just For You, the following year.

After the three country songs, McDonald played “Rockin’ Round the World” from the yet-to-be-released final Country Joe & the Fish album, CJ Fish, and “Flying High” from their first album. He closed his set with “I Seen a Rocket,” which was later released as a single. By this time in the set, McDonald appeared more into his performance, and the upbeat, fun songs should have elicited more reaction from the audience than they did.

McDonald was disheartened by the poor audience response to his acoustic set, so he walked off stage and asked his tour manager if it would be alright to play “I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-to-Die Rag” as an encore, since it was already planned that he would perform the song with Country Joe & the Fish on day three of the festival. As Joe tells the story, the road manager replied, “Nobody’s listening to you, so what difference does it make?” He returned to the microphone and started his famous (infamous) cheerleader call-and-response: “Gimme an F! Gimme a U! Gimme a C! Gimme a K! What’s that spell? What’s that spell? What’s that spell? What’s that spell?” to which the audience rose to their feet and told the pro-war world to get screwed. McDonald’s anti-war satire, “Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin-To-Die-Rag,” which followed the “FISH Cheer” had the audience singing and clapping along. At that moment, especially after the release of the Woodstock movie and soundtrack, Country Joe McDonald had “a solo career and a solo identity,” and young people around the world, including the troops in Vietnam, had an anti-war anthem. Filmmaker Michael Wadleigh captured the sing-along moment in the Woodstock movie by adding the lyrics as subtitles, complete with the follow-along “bouncing ball.”
