THE Johnny Cash Roadshow comes to West Fife in June.

Clive John has been taking the Cash sound around the country and he will be at Dunfermline’s Alhambra Theatre on 21st June. Looking very much like the famous American entertainer Clive also sounds just like him.

He said, “At first friends and family couldn’t understand what I was doing and said I was foolish sacrificing my own ‘Clive John’ career pretending to be Johnny Cash (a tribute).

“It’s taken a long time and many hurdles have been crossed but I’m very proud to call this show my own and I think most people now understand. However, I haven’t lost track of my own song writing career and this is why I insist on keeping one of my own songs in the show. Currently it is ‘The Spirit’ which has had tremendous success in the Hot Disc Country Chart spending eight weeks at no.1 in the Irish/UK Chart and four weeks throughout rest of the world (except US). However I have put ‘Clive John’ as a singer/songwriter in a box for now while I am focusing on getting the Johnny Cash Roadshow as good as it can be”.

He added, “I had been warned by a man called John David (producer of my last three albums) that my song writing would suffer as the show became more successful.

“He was right as it’s turned out, but to be honest that’s fine with me as I have a pretty extensive back catalogue anyway. I also have a few new songs penned and will start adding to the list when I get some time to be creative!”
