Ragged Old Flag is the 47th album by American country music
singer Johnny Cash, released on Columbia Records in 1974. The
album addresses several political as well as ethical issues, like
many of Cash’s other releases. The title track, and the only single
from the album, is a spoken word tribute to patriotism amid the
Watergate scandal. “Don’t Go Near the Water” addresses another
hot political issue of the time, the environment. All of the songs on
the album were composed by Cash, save “I’m a Worried Man” by
himself and June Carter Cash.

The United States Postal Service, John Carter Cash and other members of the Cash family celebrate the legacy of “The Man in Black” with the release of a limited-edition Johnny Cash Forever stamp June 5 at the Ryman Auditorium (116 Fifth Ave., Nashville, Tenn.), at 10:30 a.m. CDT. Doors open for stamp sales at 9 a.m. The event is free and open to the public.
Artists set to appear, perform or speak at the first-day-of-issuance ceremony include John Carter Cash, Carlene Carter, Larry Gatlin, Jamey Johnson, The Oak Ridge Boys, The Roys, Marty Stuart and Randy Travis among others. 650AM WSM personality Bill Cody will serve as emcee of the event.
“It is an amazing blessing that my father Johnny Cash be honored with the issue of this stamp. Dad was a hard-working man; a man of dignity. As much as anything else, he was a proud American, always supporting his family, fans and country. I can think of no better way to pay due respect to his legacy than through the release of this stamp,” John Carter Cash said.
“My family is thrilled that my father will grace a United States Forever stamp – a great honor for any American, and an honor that would have particularly delighted him. It is a joy to know that generations will use this stamp, and my father will forever be where he loved to be: traveling the world,” Rosanne Cash added.
Designed by art director Greg Breeding, the Johnny Cash stamp features a photograph captured by Frank Bez during the photo session for “Ring of Fire: The Best of Johnny Cash” (1963). The stamp is part of the U.S. Postal Service’s “Music Icon” series, which also includes stamps honoring Lydia Mendoza (available now) and Ray Charles (to be released in September).
