A Week with Cash

NASHVILLE (W.) Feb. 21, 2007 -- Watching the Academy Award-winning movie "Walk the Line" about her brother Johnny Cash was stinging to Joanne Cash, at points.

Joanne was young at the time of the accident, but she remembers that as a 9-year-old, "I walked the aisle at church and shook hands with the preacher in hopes of being able to go to heaven and see Jack.

Joanne sings about these experiences in her new album "Gospel," which was just released.
