    Yall remember The 5th Dimension don't you? They were an American vocal group. Its music encompasses sunshine pop, pop soul, and psychedelic soul. The band was an important crossover music act of the 1960s and 1970s, although both praised and derided for their particular musical approach and mass appeal.

    Why? In a word...they were "too white" to be Black and "too Black" to be white. Talk about a conundrum???

    Today's Podcast digs deep into their storied and controversial career.

    So kick back and dig this message for your mind...by way of your ear!

    In this Podcast I'm gonna share with you that tidbit and so much more. So kick back and let me tell yall all about The Man in Black! So dig this message for your mind...by way of your ears!

    Johnny Cash was an American singer-songwriter. Most of his music contains themes of sorrow, moral tribulation, and redemption, especially songs from the later stages of his career. He was known for his deep, calm, bass-baritone voice, the distinctive sound of his backing band, the Tennessee Three, that was characterized by its train-like chugging guitar rhythms, a rebelliousness coupled with an increasingly somber and humble demeanor, and his free prison concerts. Cash wore a trademark all-black stage wardrobe, which earned him the nickname "Man in Black".
