Johnny & June is acompilation album and 60th overall album byAmericancountry singerJohnny Cash, released onBear Family Records in 1978 (see1978 in music). LikeThe Unissued Johnny Cash it consists of material that was either unreleased or not widely available. Most of the songs were recorded from 1964 to 1965, with the exception of "Smiling Bill McCall" from 1960. The songs, "Cotton Picking Hands" and "Wer Kennt Den Weg" and "In Virginia" (both in German) had been previously released on singles. "Thunderball" was recorded for theJames Bond film, but was ultimately turned down in favor ofTom Jones (see also theThunderballfilm andsoundtrack articles).
"One Too Many Mornings" is aBob Dylan song fromThe Times They Are a-Changin'. Cash and Dylan would later record a duet version of the song forNashville Skyline, and Cash would record the song again forHeroes withWaylon Jennings. This version featuresMaybelle Carter playing autoharp. TheCarters feature on several songs on the album;June Carter sings lead vocal on three songs and duets on another, andAnita Carter sings on "That's What It's Like to Be Lonesome."
