Al gave me the JC American recordings recently, and I've been listening to them whenever I get into the car. While I like some of them more than others, there's something about Johnny's voice as an old man that goes straight to my gut in all of them. Even when he can't buy a note, JC's voice is so real, so raw, so full of nerve and sad wisdom and a wondering faith that I just have to shake my head and go wow. What an artist.
I'm giving these to the Coach for Christmas. He doesn't read my blog so I can say that.

Its a great set. He made "Hurt" his own, and the lead singer for Nine Inch Nails agreed.
