Man in Black may be the 38th album by country singer Johnny Cash, but it is definitely one of the most memorable albums in his discography. Man in Black is perhaps one of Cash’s most political albums. The title refers to Cash’s tendency to wear only black during his live shows. This was to reflect the turbulent times during the Vietnam War. This message is also reflected in the album’s lyrics. The singles “Man in Black” and “Singin’ in Viet Nam Talkin’ Blues” can be seen as his most important protest songs. Both singles were successful on the Billboard Country charts.
