Heres the story from AOL:
COUNTRY and western legend Johnny Cash has died in a hospital in Nashville, Tennessee, at the age of 71.
Hospital officials said he died from complications linked to diabetes.
The star, known as The Man in Black, had worldwide hits with songs including Ring Of Fire, I Walk The Line and Boy Named Sue.
He had enjoyed a recent return to critical acclaim with a trilogy of new albums.
"Johnny died due to complications from diabetes, which resulted in respiratory failure,'' said Cash's manager, Lou Robin.
Cash died at Nashville's Baptist Hospital, where he had spent two weeks being treated for an unspecified stomach ailment.
The late 1960s and 1970s were Cash's peak commercial years, but his career spanned generations, with each finding something of value in his simple records, many of which used his trademark "boom-chicka-boom'' rhythm.
He won 11 Grammys and numerous Country Music Association awards. He was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1980 and inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992.
Cash launched his career in Memphis, performing on radio station KWEM. He auditioned with Sun Records, ultimately recording the single Hey Porter, which became a hit.
Twice-married Cash had a son and four daughters. He lived in Hendersonville, Tennessee, just outside Nashville, and also had a home in Jamaica."
There is no link to that, by the way, thats why I didn't post one.
