DO YOU HEAR THE TRAIN A-COMING: Harold Ford transforms into Johnny Cash this Friday at the Rochester Opera House. (Courtesy photo)
Country fans don't miss The Spirit of Johnny Cash, which is more of a back to life experience than a tribute band, a truly must-see performance that has graced the Rochester Opera House stage for many years.
Ford is "Spot on!!" as Cash according to ROH Executive Director Anthony Ejarque. 
Tommy Cash (Johnny's brother) was quoted, after seeing the Spirit of Johnny Cash "I don't know how you do it, but you have my brother's musical fingerprint" after seeing Ford live at The Tennessee Performing Arts Center in downtown Nashville, Tenn.
