Johnny was advised strongly against recording a live album in a prison but John did it anyhow and it turned out to be one of his best selling albums. You can tell by looking at the inmates faces how much it meant to them that John came there and preformed for them. Truly a legend. Still listening to the man in black music in 2024 🎵🎶

None of his prison shows were about saying all these guys shouldn't be there. Prisoners like at 34 minutes probably had their key threw away. Confined to a cell and the punishment fits the crime. But does that mean a fellow human being shouldn't have at least 1 thing to look forward and 1 good memory in the place that has their life before they die? Probably a divisive question but that's the sort of thing Cash thought about when thinking of these prisoners. 1 of the reasons he played at Folsom and San Quentin

I'm 50 now. 1st celebrity I met as a boy. Didn't even know his music that young. Met him waiting for an invoice from a store I was delivering to. 2 days ago I made the trip to Henderson to see the ruins of his house. Sober now. I felt comfortable and complete in my life for once. I meet celebrities for a living 30 years now. None will ever compare to that man. Thank you Mr. Cash...

Johnny Cash never thought he was such a big star that he couldn’t relate to the common man and he was a big star there’s no doubt. He always thought of the incarcerated and didn’t think he was above other people. They thought he was crazy for wanting to go to a prison and put on a show but his mind was set on it. Can you imagine any artist doing this today? I can’t believe he was able to do it then. He gave people hope and performed for free at the prisons and jails.

I'm quickly approaching 60 my husband will be 74 in January. This was one of my favorite live appearances of Johnny Cash. He was so talented and he was so much in love with June Carter. She died before him and he spoke so often of how her being in heaven gave him inspiration to perform. I don't know what I will do if my husband dies before me. He is my inspiration for everything and has been for so long. Just like Johnny and June, we are soulmates.

I find this video haunting. Both heartwarming and heartbreaking. The men in the audience look beautiful. They are shining and happy and grateful. Imagine walking away from that uplifting show to a cell and the culture in which they must live. And the haunting part: all of them are long gone. RIP to all of them. RIP to JC. Johnny Cash was the Real Deal. He truly cared. His empathy was genuine. He was much more than his tremendous talent.

Johnny served in Folsom. He left and came back to sing. This man knew prison. He walked that line. It changed him in a soulful way. The only time he went back was to play. An he and his wife June Carter Cash had their last living togetherness playing on for prisoners. These two individuals be are priceless. Humble is beneath what they've done for others. June saved his life and he knew it.

My dad bought this record shortly after it came out, and we listened to it many times over the years, my mom, dad, brother and myself. It never got old. I had the record 'til a few short years ago when we moved. My dad, my dear younger brother are gone now and my sweet aged mother is in a home now as I couldn't care for her properly anymore due to her illness. Today I learned what true heartbreak was when I took her to this place, as we'd been inseperable since my brother's suicide 12 1/2 years ago. The people there showed kindness and this assured me that she would be cared for well and given the attention only other women can give that I could not. When I got home a short while ago this video turned up as by some greater will. I'm gonna let my ma get settled in and go visit her in 3-4 days. It's gonna be different being alone now, but this journey's not over yet. Maybe some good things will happen too.
