| On February 24, 1969, 2 days before he turned 37, the legendary Johnny Cash led his traveling troupe behind the foreboding walls of the California State Penitentiary at San Quentin. This 2 CD/DVD set includes 31 audio selections, 13 of which were previously unissued, plus a DVD called Johnny Cash In San Quentin, a 1969 documentary made by England's Granada TV for British television. Included are concert excerpts plus interviews with prisoners and guards. The Tennessee Three backs up Cash, with additional performances by Carl Perkins, The Statler Brothers, and the Carter Family featuring Mother Maybelle Carter and June Carter Cash. |

| One of country music's unequivocal stars, Johnny Cash retained respect for the travails of the audience elevating him to that position. Recorded live at one of America's most notorious prisons, this album displays an empathy bereft of condescension and captures a performer combining charisma with natural ease. The material is balanced between established favorites and new material including "Wanted Man" (an unrecorded Bob Dylan song), and the lighthearted hit "A Boy Named Sue." It was not the first time Cash had recorded in a penal institution, but this appearance, at a time when American values were vociferously questioned, suggested the artist's rebelliousness had not dimmed. | |
