How many CDs did Johnny Cash put out?

Since Johnny Cash began his music career before CD's came out, most of the music he made was put on records. Only when he became middle-aged did he put his music on CD's. His last song, "Hurt", for example, was on a CD. The good thing is, you don't have to buy his old music on record anymore. The company transferred the record's content onto a CD. I don't know how many records he made, though.

Why Did Johnny cash sing walk the line?

Johnny Cash wrote "Walk the Line". The unique chord progression for the song was inspired by an accidental backwards playback on Cash's tape recorder while he was in the Air Force. Later, he wrote the lyrics in a backstage dressing room in Gladewater, Texas in 1955, after a discussion with fellow performer Carl Perkins encouraged him to adopt "I Walk the Line" as the song title. Cash originally intended the song as a slow ballad, but producer Sam Phillips preferred a faster arrangement, which Cash grew to like as the uptempo recording met with success.

The song was originially recorded at the Sun studio on April 2, 1956, and was released on May 1. It spent six weeks at the top spot on the U.S. country charts that summer, and also reached number 19 on the pop music charts. In 2003, Rolling Stone ranked the song at #30 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. He wrote it for his first wife, Vivian Liberto.
