Took a group of men under his care to see Johnny Cash in concert and Johnny invited them all back stage after the show.

I remember when he did his prison shows in the '60's. The press and others criticized him greatly. But those of us who grew up listening to him, who weren't rich, and were just regular folks totally got it and appreciated it so much. That's when I became a fan. He was very unique and a quality human being. If you ever get a chance to go to his museum in Nashville, do it.

The heart of a punk, yes. But he's missing the standard issue punk rock clothing and haircut, the standard issue nasally faux-British-accented singing, and the typical nose-in-the-air finger-pointing lyrics. But other than that, a punk at his core. However without all those other critical elements many would deny him his entry into the hallowed halls of punkrockdom. So Johnny will just have to strum his guitar and sing his songs for the people outside on the streets, like a lowly commoner.

This song has so many meanings. It's always been one of my favorites. I was raised in Hendersonville. When we first moved there it was still a small country town. It wasn't long until we saw him in the front pew of the First Baptist Church. It wasn't much longwr til they couldn't come anymore. But he and June Carter on occasion would still stop by the HG Hills grocery store. The only store in town. Then that had to go by the wayside too. Then Hendersonville wasn't a country town anymore.

Possibly the sweetest song of his is the 1961 song “Tennessee Flat Top Box”; a flat top box is a slang term for an acoustic guitar. I’ve suggested this tune a few times, the best video being the one from The Johnny Cash Show with Jim Soley featured on the guitar; believe it was in 1973.❤❤❤❤❤❤
