Johnny Cash’s estate to release lost album

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — There’s new never-before-heard music coming from Johnny Cash.

Cash’s estate is releasing “Out Among the Stars,” an album he recorded with Billy Sherrill in the early 1980s that was never released by Columbia Records, then disappeared when the company dropped Cash in 1986. Turns out Cash and his wife, June Carter Cash, stashed the tapes — along with just about everything else that came into their possession.

“They never threw anything away,” said their son, John Carter Cash. “They kept everything.”
