Guide Review - Wildwood Flower - June Carter Cash

When we lost June Carter Cash earlier this year, we lost a true icon in country music. The Carter Family is one of the most recognized and respected names in the field. With the union of Johnny Cash and June Carter, country music would never be the same again. The two were soul mates, and their love shined through with their music.

'Wildwood Flower' is June Carter Cash's last album. She chose several of her favorite songs to include, and her album wouldn't be complete without a song to showcase her humor. John Carter Cash produced the album, and the finished product is more like a family gathering to share their music than a cold studio album. They leave in bits of conversation that they had before the songs, and there is some narration to give a small amount of background for some of the songs.

June had an uncanny ability to make strangers feel like family, and that is exactly the feeling that comes across with this album. You feel like you are included in their family while you are listening. To add to the magic, the CD is enhanced. If you play it on your computer, you are able to watch the filming of four songs.
