"Father and Daughter (Father and Son)" Released: August 1974
The Junkie and the Juicehead Minus Me is the 48th album by
country singer
Johnny Cash, released in 1974 on
Columbia Records. Although credited to Cash alone, the album includes solo performances by his daughter
Rosanne Cash, and stepdaughters
Rosie Nix Adams and
Carlene Carter (credited as Carlene Routh), predating the launch of their own solo careers. Two songs on the album were written by
Kris Kristofferson, while "
Don't Take Your Guns to Town" is a re-recording of a highly successful Cash single, his first smash hit for Columbia from back in 1958. "Father and Daughter (
Father and Son)" is a
cover version of a well-known
Cat Stevens song and a duet with Cash's stepdaughter,
Rosie Nix Adams, with slight changes in lyrics; a version of the same song would be released in 2003 on Unearthed, as a duet with
Fiona Apple.
June Carter Cash also performs a solo track without her husband, one of only a couple of occasions where she did this on a Johnny Cash album outside of concert recordings.
