Re: [RC] For June Carter Cash Fans - Truman PrevattThis is a sad passing indeed. The Carter Family was almost single handily responsible for the development of the truly American folk music, based on the transformation of the tunes of our Scotch Irish ancestors. June's mother Maybelle famous "Carter Lick" was the first focus of the guitar as a lead instrument. It is no accident that the Carters were the first inductees into the Country Music Hall of Fame. Some credit June Carter for saving Johnny Cash from his wicked, wild ways. It's ironic that he survives her.This is the passing of a legend - a pioneer of establishing an identity in this country when it was sorely needed. Of course it brings forth the question, "Will the Circle be unbroken........." Truman Typef wrote:
