When Johnny Cash began his American Recordings with Rick Rubin in 1993, he was told that it would be a project in which he could record his songs simply--just his voice and his guitar. This is something he always wanted to do. In the early 70's, he had recorded some of the songs he knew as a boy, stories, etc. at his home in Hendersonville, TN. His son, John Carter Cash, seems to think that he shopped these to his label at the time, Columbia, to be produced, but Columbia wasn't interested. Apparently, these recordings are now set to be produced and sold beginning May 2006. The recordings will be called Personal File. If you're interested in more you can read about it here.
