Johnny Cash's estate is officially releasing never-before-heard music recorded in the early 1980s.

According to the Associated Press, "Out Among the Stars" was recorded with Billy Sherrill, a producer and Country Music Hall of Fame member who was then the president of CBS Records Nashville, paired together by Columbia Records. 

However, the album went missing in 1986 when the label dropped Cash, which his estate later found was stashed amongst his belongings. 

"[My parents] never threw anything away," the couple's son John Carter Cash told AP. "They kept everything in their lives. They had an archive that had everything in it from the original audio tapes from 'The Johnny Cash Show' to random things like a camel saddle, a gift from the prince of Saudi Arabia."

"Out Among the Stars" will be released on March 25, 2014.  Cash's music was recorded during a time where the country genre was shifting in a direction the artist wasn't found of.  Cash died Sept. 12, 2003, almost four months after his wife June Carter Cash passed away.

"Dad was always uniquely himself," John Carter explained to AP. "And later on the world would come back around. He never modified himself. But Nashville at the time was in a completely different place. It was the 'Urban Cowboy' phase. It was pop country, and dad was not that. I think him working with Billy was sort of an effort by the record company to put him more in the circle of Music Row and see what could happen at the heart of that machine."
