If it's done as well as Tony Joe White's "Smoke on the chimney" from a couple of years back (done by Auerbach) this could be a cool release.

All Summer Long:
I haven't listened to this, but I am excited.  It's too bad that W.S. Holland didn't live a few years longer (at least) to have been able to contribute to the overdubs.  (Off-topic, but I've never understood why he and Bob Wootton never appeared on any of the American Recordings series songs).

Ian:
I heard that it is ok but illustrates the rut he was in before Rubin kind of revived his enthusiasm for recording. Cash has a distinctive style but some of his 1970s and 80s material was ponderous.  A singer needs good material and sympathetic musicians and producers

I listened to it the other day, just once so far.  My favorite track is the version of Drive On, but that’s a song where we already had a finished version released earlier.
