Rick Rubin, American record producer and guru, persuaded Johnny Cash to sit at home and record a selection of his music and other songs like “Nine Inch Nails,” U2, while Rubin quietly mixed the tracks. They wanted an iconic album cover. Cash is walking down the road with his guitar. Film-maker Martyn Atkins asked whether I minded flying from the UK to Australia while he’ll arrive from LA to shoot Johnny Cash, who was touring in Melbourne. We found a deserted Goldmine nearby and persuaded Johnny to leave his Hotel. My first impression of the ‘Man in black’ was that he looked like a preacher, so the field of wheat and stormy clouds captured this mood. Johnny coaxed the two dogs to stand on either side of him for two frames, and I got our photograph.
On ‘Later with Jools Holland’, Jools asked, ’Johnny, what was the meaning of the Dogs?’ He answered, ‘This one is Hell, the other Redemption’.
