Legendary Drum Set Goes On Display At Johnny Cash Museum
. "Johnny Cash began his musical career at Sun Records," said museum founder Bill Miller in a press release. "Sun was the launch pad for several young men whose music would forever impact the world. Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison and Johnny came from similar backgrounds and humble beginnings. Once they walked through the door at the Memphis Recording Service, their lives would never be the same." On display will be the famous drum set used by W.S. "Fluke" Holland, who was Cash's drummer for 40 years. The drum set was used on numerous Sun Records recordings including Cash's "I Walk the Line," "Folsom Prison Blues" and "Ring of Fire" as well as Presley's "Blue Suede Shoes." Holland's drum set is legendary in the country music community as it was the first full drum set to appear on the Grand Ole Opry stage. more on this story Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
