Rusty cage. Johnny Cash cover.
I ve always loved and respected The Man in Black but was quite surprised when he covered that grunge song ( originally by Soundgarden) and made it sound great in his own badass Cash style.
I covered the cover trying to add more to the heavy blues part ( second half of the song ). It s a tribute to both Cash and original songwriter Cornell. Let me know if you like it. Rock on!
This is a jam @shemzee! Thanks for being so persistent, keep’em coming! 👍🏿
Like everyone else, I’m pretty sick of saying goodbye to the really talented people I choose to listen to—RIP Chris Cornell.
That one got me in the guts! Chris Cornell was my first rockstar crush. I even (unfortunately) cut my hair short when he did because I was so smitten. It looked much better on him. That voice, though. I'm so glad I took the opportunity to see him a few times when he toured through Atlanta, by himself, with Soundgarden, and when he was with Audioslave.
Thank you. The world really lost some of my musical heroes in the last few years... Cornell, Bowie, Prince...etc. But their music lives on. I m gonna post a few more covers in the near future paying homage to some of them. Thank you again for your kind words and stay blessed
Prince has been my favorite artist for as long as I can remember. That was a sad day.

STOPHad to come back around to check this one out, too! Loved Chris Cornell, and I remember thinking Johnny Cash was a total bada$$ when I first heard this cover. Very cool.
Thank you. I adored both Cornell and Cash. Cornell was a great composer, entertainer and singer, one of the best voices of the mighty 90s. Cash was a legend. He had the ability to " own" a cover after singing it without changing a single word of the lyrics. So sad both of them are in heaven. But their music lives on.
