Release Notes:
--------
Throughout his career, Johnny Cash sang about the downtrodden, giving a voice to
the voiceless. But his 1964 concept album, Bitter Tears: Ballads of the American
Indian, started a new conversation about social awareness.
The collection of songs, written by Cash and Peter La Farge, provided strong
commentary about the United States governmentÆs mistreatment of Native
Americans. Now, Kris Kristofferson, Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, The Milk Carton
Kids and others transform CashÆs political statement into a rootsy collection in
the new album, Look Again to the Wind: Johnny CashÆs Bitter Tears Revisited.
Kristofferson handles the original albumÆs biggest track, The Ballad of Ira
Hayes, with help from Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. Other standout
performances include Harris taking on Apache Tears, a heartfelt version of The
Talking Leaves with Nancy Blake supported by Harris, Welch and Rawlings, and
Rhiannon GiddensÆ haunting cover of The Vanishing Race. The cover album also
includes three additional tracks: reprises of As Long as the Grass Shall Grow
and Apache Tears, and a track left off the original called Look Again to the
Wind.
