“Claims Johnny Cash released his 47th studio album, Ragged Old Flag, on April 5, 1974, as a response to Watergate.”

• The album was released in 1974 and was explicitly written to reaffirm faith in America during the post-Watergate political climate.
• However, major discographies and label records list the release as May 1974 rather than April 5, and it is typically cataloged as his 44th studio album, not the 47th.
