A one of a kind Johnny Cash dubplate has been revealed and the audio is available to the public for the first time today. Near the end of his time abroad with the US Air Force in Germany in 1954, a 22 year old Johnny Cash recorded a 78 rpm record for his first wife, Vivian. One side was etched with the grooves of “Darlin’ Am I The One?” while the other side was etched with a “tender spoken-word declaration of his love” for his faraway lover. In a strange coincidence, the song was originall performed by Carl Smith who was married, at the time, to June Carter. Apparently, Smith was not the One for June.

You can listen to the audio again on Spinner, where you can also peruse Johnny Cash’s letters (an excerpt from the book “I Walked The Line”) and photos.

In the grand pattern of things you get an A+ just for effort and hard work. Exactly where you actually misplaced me ended up being in the details. You know, they say, details make or break the argument.. And it couldn’t be much more correct right here. Having said that, permit me reveal to you just what exactly did give good results. The article (parts of it) is certainly highly engaging and that is possibly the reason why I am taking the effort to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, even though I can easily see the jumps in logic you come up with, I am not really convinced of how you appear to connect the details which produce your final result. For right now I shall subscribe to your position but wish in the near future you link your facts better.

With everything that appears to be developing inside this specific area, many of your perspectives are quite radical. However, I beg your pardon, because I do not subscribe to your entire suggestion, all be it exhilarating none the less. It seems to everyone that your opinions are not entirely validated and in actuality you are yourself not wholly convinced of your assertion. In any case I did enjoy reading through it.
