In February 1993, U2 lead singer Bono learned that his hero, Johnny Cash, would be performing in Dublin, Ireland. Bono quickly wrote "The Wanderlust" in hopes that he could get Cash to record the song with U2. Bono reached Johnny the day before the Dublin concert and convinced him to do the song. The song was recorded on the afternoon of February 8, 1993, and U2 joined Cash on stage at his concert later that evening. These are the sheets used by Johnny during the recording with his handwritten changes. At the end of the session, each member of U2 signed the first page of lyrics and presented the sheets to Cash. The song title was changed to "The Wanderer," and the tune was a solo cut for U2's album, Zooropa. Along with the three pages of lyrics, also included in this handsome framed display is an original photograph taken on the evening of the show and signed by Kris Kristofferson, U2, and Johnny Cash. 33 by 35 inches, framed Categories: Johnny Cash
