Johnny Cash - If You Could Read My Mind

Canadian singer/songwriter Gordon Lightfoot's songs have been recorded by an incredible amount of class acts, among them Elvis Presley, Marty Robbins, Harry Belafonte, Scott Walker and Johnny Cash. The latter recorded Lightfoot's most well-known song, "If You Could Read My Mind" with producer Rick Rubin, and it appeared posthumously on American V: A Hundred Highways, released in 2006. It's a stark naked and very beautiful version of what is essentially a very, very beautiful song.
