Yes, the movie was great - highly recommend it. However this is a link to a song (I think it was one of the last he sang) which is a cover of a Nine Inch Nails song. I had heard his version but I had never seen the video, after watching the movie the video is a heap more powerful.
Cheers

Well SWMBO and I have free tickets to the movies (don't ask) so you have helped make up our minds about seeing Johnny Cash. Thanks.

And how many song writers are there from Warricks Mobile? Small world - I just hired The Proposition to watch tonight whilst SWMBO is up country.

Great movie is the Proposition. Its also worthy of getting one of his older movies, Ghosts of the Civil Dead. Thats a fantastic movie, very powerfull.

I missed seeing Nick Cave when he was last in Melbourne, would have been the first time I saw him live.
I was foolishly "economising" and instead listened to the concert on RRR. I remember I had a few unkind words to say to myself. :( :mad: :(

Yeah that was it, and if you went then make me feel good and tell me it wasn't any good.

And the world is getting smaller, just about to throw The Proposition on and a drink driving ad comes on with the tune "Better Get a Lawyer son"

Wish I hadn't left all my cd's back home now. :(
I've had to replace most of my Nick Cave and J. Cash cd's, people forget to return them when lent out. :mad:
It was raining the night N. Cave played in Melb. Fitting I thought.

Hi reeves
I am assuming you either play or like listening to banjo music
go to amazon.com (usa) and type in Roscoe Holcomb or Basco Lamar Lunsford
you can also get Pete Seegers Rainbow Quest DVDs containg the above and including Johnny Cash with June Carter Doc Watson, the Stanley Brothers, Sonny Terry and Brownie Mcgee. Have just ordered the Sonny Terry but have the others. Good to see them as well as listen, however you may not like Roscoe Holcombs method of singing (high country) however his banjo playing and guitar is another thing
Do you have a good SAFE site for downloading free music tried a few but got hit with spy/viruses/ and other nasties, never tried since

Goota get the latest Cash album,
It is usually the heavier bands doing remixes of lighter songs, to hear JC's version of this great Nine Inch Nails ballad was very cool and from the ad for the album, the other covers seem quite good as well.
