This Japanese remastered pressing drops the San Quentin portion of the original CD reissue, instead adding 3 cuts to complete the full and uncensored Folsom show, and includes a photo booklet. Want to hear part of the reason why Johnny Cash is an icon, a singer respected and influential in country, folk, and rock & roll? This is it! In 1968, one of the most tumultuous years in American history since the Depression years, Cash recorded an album live in front of a (literally) captive audience, in Folsom Prison, in front of a wildly appreciative audience. With two guitars, bass, drums, and a small vocal group (including Cash's wife June Carter Cash and the Statler Brothers), Cash sings his hits and lesser-known songs ('Send A Picture of Mother') and some haunting country standards ('Dark As A Dungeon') and songs about real outlaws ('Cocaine Blues') to a rapt audience that hangs onto every word. With its unique setting, this is as harrowing an album as any ever recorded. CBS. 2006.
