Johnny Cash, Fool's Hall Of Fame (chords & Leads) Tabs
Artist/Band: Cash Johnny Tabs
Song: Fool's Hall Of Fame (chords & Leads) Tab
Fools Hall of Fame
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Johnny Cash recorded this song twice (that I know of) during his career. He
recorded it for Sun Records in the mid 50's with a 12-bar-blues-like rhythm and
then he re-recorded it for Columbia in 1958 with an extra verse & more up-beat
4/4 timing but it was not released until 2002 as a "bonus track" on "The
Fabulous Johnny Cash" CD. I will post both versions, the Sun recording first,
then the Columbia recording.
