On this day back in the ancient days of 1968, the legendary Johnny Cash performed a concert at Folsom Prison. The recording wasn't released until May of 1968, but on this day in 1968 he performed a concert for the inmates at Folsom Prison. The concert resulted in not one but two live concert albums from Folsom Prison.
"At Folsom Prison" is still mentioned as one of the greatest albums of
all time by Rolling Stone and it sealed Cash's legacy as one of the
most influential artists of the 20th century.
As a side note, "Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison" was the first cassette tape that I ever had. Nuff said.
