Look at Them Beans
Look at Them Beans is the 52nd album by country singer Johnny Cash, released in 1975 on Columbia Records. Following an unsuccessful attempt with the previous album, John R. Cash to update Cash's sound with a new set of session musicians, Look at Them Beans reinstated The Tennessee Three as Cash's core session group.
The cover depicts him with his son, John [Carter Cash], while the back cover features a dedication to Johnny Cash by his wife, June Carter Cash.
The album reached #38 on the Country Album Chart, while the title track, as the only released single, peaked at #17.
