Full review

The first cd in this double collection is Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison.
It was recorded in 1968 (well before i was born). This was the time of Presidential Abdication, The Vietnam War and the continuing Civil Rights struggle. It was also the same year Mr. Johnny Cash married Miss June Carter, his saviour. This cd really opened my eyes to what life was like "back in the day". With 19 great songs including "Folsom Prison Blues", "Cocaine Blues" and the fantastic "Jackson" a duet with June. There had never been a recording session quite like this one which produced this album. The songs on the cd's:-

1 Folsom prison blues
2 Busted
3 Dark as the dungeon
4 I still miss someone
5 Cocaine Blues
6 25 minutes to go
7 Orange Blossom Blues
8 The long Black Veil
9 Send a picture of Mother
10 The wall
11 Dirty old egg-suckin' dog
12 Flushed from the bathroon of your heart
13 Joe bean
14 Jackson
15 Give my love to rose
16 I got stripes
17 The legend of John Henry's hammer
18 Greeen, Green grass of home
19 Greyston chapel
The Second is at San Quentin, it was recorded a year after At Folsom, it too has some wonderfull songs including "Big River" "Starkville City Jail" which Johnny tells a story about the song before he sings it ,and of course the world famous "Ring Of Fire" and "Walk The Line. The Songs on this cd are:-

1 Big River
2 I still miss someone
3 Wreck of the old 97
4 I walk the line
5 Darlin' companion
6 I don't know where I'm bound
7 Starkville city jail
8 San Quentin
9 San Quentin
10 Wanted man
11 A boy name Sue
12 (There'll be) Peace in the Valley
13 Folsom Prison Blues
14 Ring of fire
15 He turned the water into wine
16 Daddy sang bass
17 The old account was settled long ago
18 Closing medley: Folsom prison blues/I walk the line/Ring of fire/The rebel-Johnny Yuma


The album cost me £9.99 but the shop I got it from has now closed due to administration,but I'm sure you could but it from HMV and on-line. I bought it because I had heard some of the songs before and I knew that when I listened to it I was lisetning to history in the making. My favourite songs from both cds are "Cocaine blues", "Jackson" "I got stripes" " I walk the line" "Ring of fire".

I can honestly say I can not find any disadvantages to this 2 disc album.

This double Cd Album changed my attitude about country music and life. RIP Johnny Cash your music will live on.

Additional notes

Album Notes: 2 LPs on 1 CD: AT FOLSOM PRISON (1968)/AT SAN QUENTIN (1969).
Combined here on one disc are both of Cash's famous live "prison albums" of the '60s. Cash has always been a champion of the underdog, as well as cultivating a bit of a badass image (a veneer not harmed by some well-publicized troubles with the law), so these live performances for the prisoners of the Folsom and San Quentin penitentiaries seem more like a preacher delivering a sermon to a faithful parish than a do-gooder slumming in the prison system.
Each concert includes a song tailor-made for the event. "San Quentin" is sung from the point of view of a long-time inmate who bears the psychic scars of incarceration. "Folsom Prison Blues," one of Cash's signature songs, is Cash's most cold-eyed examination of the sociopathic criminal mind, containing the famous line "I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die." Tunes like these naturally endear Cash to his captive audience, but the prisoners are equally enthused by the humorous, Shel Silverstein-penned "A Boy Named Sue," the sad, romantic "I Still Miss Someone" and the uproarious, Best Country Song Title of All Time-award winner "Flushed From the Bathroom of Your Heart."

Album Reviews: Uncut (p.118) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "At Folsom, he found his most captive audience. He reached perilously deep inside, playing off the taut atmosphere in the prison hall to deliver one of his most electrifying and empathetic performances."
