Rosanne Cash Slows Down a Sassy Classic

Posted: September 25th, 2009 at 4:51 pm | By: Whitney Self

I'm looking forward to hearing Rosanne Cash's new album, The List, that drops early next month. It's been three years since Black Cadillac, and this time she's recording all covers. The List is comprised of 12 of the 100 songs that her father, Johhny Cash, gave her when she was just 18 years old. Wanting his daughter to familiarize herself with country music, his list included songs like Hank Williams' "Take These Chains From My Heart," Jimmie Rodgers' "Miss the Mississippi and You" and this one, Hank Snow's smash hit, "I'm Movin' On." You'll probably find yourself snapping along as she successfully slows down this sassy number. And if this song and video is any indication of her upcoming work, I'll be checking The List twice.

Does anyone know who the guitar player is in this video? I checked out the clips of all the songs, and she definately put her own twist on them…for good or bad. Some songs I wasn’t really pleased with the arraingement, however several were very cool. I agree she is a legend, and she is highly respected in Americana music. I have a feeling her dad is very proud of her..

Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic however I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa? My blog goes over a lot of the same subjects as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other. If you’re interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way!
