The Lure of the Grand Canyon

(Mono) 'Originally released on Columbia Records, Johnny Cash’s 11th album, The Lure of the Grand Canyon, was unlike anything he had ever done before. Most significantly, it was not even an album of Cash’s music, rather a concept album consisting primarily of American composer Ferde Grofé’s Grand Canyon Suite. Cash gives his tribute to Grofé in the conclusive track, an 11-minute spoken word piece about a day at the Canyon.'[discogs]
