I've been a fan of Cash's for years now, but I've only recently gotten into Elvis. I know they aren't similar at all, but they're two major icons of the music industry. Sure Elvis died on the toilet and his death was really what brought him back, but he's still a major part of his time.

So, anyone else a fan of either of these two?

I like a few of Cash's songs, not a big fan of Elvis (unless of course you mean Josh Homme the "Ginger Elvis" ;) )

Elvis was a racist son of a *****. He was cool with me until I figured out he hated black people. Too bad he didn't live long enough to see his daughter marry a black man....

Johnny Cash, absolutely. Been a fan for many years. Elvis, not so much. Some of his stuff is OK, but his body of work doesn't seem to have nearly the depth of Cash's.

I like The Ring of Fire, but haven't really heard any other songs by Cash. As for Presley, I like a fair few of his songs, but not a big fan.

I love Johnny Cash, but Elvis is just some douche that was right place at the right time. Elvis was the white guy that played black music when most radio stations and record stores would not play/sell black music. King of Rock and Roll my arse.
