He sang this song AT Folsom Prison at a concert for the prisoners and they GO NUTS.
that whole album is tremendous! That was what sold me on the Man in Black.
The better version in my humble opinion.
I was hoping it was that version.
I thought that concert was in San Quentin?
That is some great footage :)
Interesting fact; When Johnny Cash played a concert in San Quinten. Merle Haggard was an inmate. After seeing Johnny, Merle said "This is what I want to do", and he turned his life around. Merle then went on to become a country music legend and icon! 🤠
Merle was in San Quentin
@@becmer oops. I knew it was one of them. I made the correction. Thanks. 😃
And went on to write one of the most iconic country songs out there (that is pseudo-autobiographical): “Mama Tried.”
No worries Johnny played San Quentin a few times. Not sure if Merle was at the one when they made the album. I love Johnny. I wish I could have met him.
Merle and Cash talked about the concert years later and Johnny got confused because he didn't remember Merle being on the show.
He did this live at Folsom Prison during concert for inmates. That recording is worth a listen. Inmates very excited.
Indeed - and Merle Haggard attributes a performance by Johnny Cash at San Quentin on New Year's Day 1959 as his main inspiration to join that prison's country music band.
As with most songs you choose, live performances give you so much more to react to. Folsom prison performance is a glowing example.
Tempo was a lot faster too. more R&B
Listen to the live recording he did at Folsom Prison, the album is absolutely amazing. One of the best live recordings to this day, no auto tune no bullshit and it was said that he was as high as a kite.
His old roommates Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Waylon Jennings. They are pretty damn good story tellers too. Oh and Pattsy Cline would drop by the apartment every now and then too!! Can you imagine the jam sessions in that living room 🤠
Mine is Gordon Lightfoot is The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
@@lohearth3160 Oh gods that breaks my heart every time..."Fellas, it's been good to know ya"...oh man...
Patsy died in 1963 - the female artist who dropped by was Dottie West - Kris met Johnny in '69/70 - Willie was never a roommate - They were all BANDMATES but never roommates! The jam sessions that Johnny & Waylon where when they lived on 18th St in a place that became know as Susan's Floor - which was the apt. above me - a great time & great music back in the day!!! Ironically that apt building was across the alley from the studio that Waylon used the most & the scene of the 'drug bust' that caused Waylon to write "Don't Ya'll Think That Outlaw Business Done Got Outta Hand?" I lived there then it it was a mess!!!! Everyone was high & altered!!! Great times even then i 1979!!!
In the movie Walk The Line- when Johnny was pretty down and out and sharing an apartment with Waylon Jennings in Nashville- that’s Waylon’s son, Shooter Jennings playing his father in the movie.
The Man In Black. No matter who EVER comes or goes, he will remain in a class by himself. Always and in all ways.
Johnny Cash - Man In Black
The quintessential song. When I heard this as a kid, it stuck with me and guided my formative years.
"I Still Miss Someone" is one of the most beautiful songs ever.
loved his music from the start! I walk the line great song!
Johnny's cover of "Hurt" is also very powerful. I think it was the last song he recorded.
Hard to watch that one with dry eyes.
Did that one YT took it down.
@@rickmiller4202 Sux.
Awesome rendition...right in the feels
It wasn’t god is gonna cut you down was his last song
"I Walked the Line" shows off johnny's vocal range and was a #1 country hit.
Johnny was married over 30 years to June Carter, a performer in her own right, they also performed together. They did a super fun duo called Jackson, look for the live version so you can see their chemistry. So sweet!
There is a pivotal scene in the movie Walk The Line that features this song.
Johnny Cash was in a super group with Waylon Jennings Kris Kristofferson, and Willie Nelson called The Highwaymen. The next time you're looking for a C & W group to review give them a try. My recommendation would be the song The Highwaymen
I second the nomination for “The Highwaymen” by The Highwaymen.
You need to listen to the live version recorded at Folsom Prison...it is absolutely surreal when the crowd goes nuts at the "Shot a man in Reno just to watch him die" line.
Johnny Cash was gangster before gangster rap, hehe.
Why the live version was not recommended is beyond me...
Absolutely should have been the live version from Folsom. Sacrilege! Lol Not your fault but SOMEONE should have told you. Cocaine Blues live is also a must
Live version is EPIC. 1million times better than this good version.
That crowd nosie was added in later but the live version is definitely worth a watch.
RIP LEGEND
"One piece at a time" is one of my favorites from Johnny Cash, but the one song that still brings tears to my eyes is "Hurt".
Hurt is great 😭
Check out his powerful, autobiographical "Man in Black," preferably the live performance video before a college audience.
You can't fully understand Johnny Cash if you have not heard that live performance. ua-cam.com/video/oDd32K-mOVw/v-deo.html
He did an entire album, Live from Folsom Prison, where he played a concert for the prisoners. The version of this song from that album is FIRE. He plays it about 10 bpm faster, and the crowd goes WILD.
They NEED to now react to that!! ❤
He's really intense in that performance.
Cocaine Blues from that record is awesome too.
He asked the guards if they were still listening to him, if he could have a glass of water.
His record label tried to order him to not do that show, because they were afraid it would make the church crowd that liked his gospel albums stop buying. His response was 'then they're not real Christians, are they?', and he not only did the show, but had it recorded.
Cash was legendary even when young.
I like what she said about recognizing his sound in the beginning. Very few have pulled that off, like Cash, Waylon, Brad Paisley.
Johnny cash was a legend he was a fantastic singer.
On Memorial Day you should have done his cover of "The Ballad of Ira Hayes", remember that for next year.
Awe. I wish you did the live version filmed at San Quentin Prison. It was a big deal at the time he did it.
I was hoping for the live version from Folsom Prison, too
I had no idea he did a show at San Quentin! Wow. Love little trivia facts like this! 🤙🏼💜💫
Oh yeah the San Quentin live gig (and album) is something else. He did jail time himself, I think maybe in San Quentin? And playing to the inmates He plays a song about San Quentin with the immortal line “San Quentin may you rot and burn in hell”. The inmates go nuts. The guards get very edgy. So johnny Cash sends one of the guards to get him a glass of water haha. Then plays the same darned song a second time. It’s literally jaw-dropping to see the actual real-life footage. Masterpiece.
@@stuartmorgan1770 WOW! I had no idea! I’m gonna definitely go check out that performance!! Thank you again for the amazing fun fact and info! ✌🏼💫✌🏼
@@dawndance1 You’re welcome! My dad and his best mate from school had an EP of it way back in 69/70 with Boy Named Sue etc on it and used to play it a lot. (Playing records as a family was quite a thing back then!) So, I was fascinated when they reissued the unedited concert on CD a few years back - it’s fantastic! And then here in the UK around the same time for some reason they re-showed this ancient documentary film that was made by the Manchester TV station at the time. Quite extraordinary.
This mans goes back a way he was before my time and I am 64 his name is Red Sovine he is one of the best that I can remember he tells stories like Teddy Bear , Little Rosa , Giddy Up Go Etc. he is worth the Listen The man will make you cry!!
As a kid I loved listening to Johnny Cash’s “I’ve Been Everywhere” while on family summer road trips. Never could manage to sing along to it though lol.
He performed this in prisons. He recorded a live album in san Quentin prison i believe
Ballad of ira Hayes, true story! My wife grew up listening to Johnny cash, Willie nelson, Waylon Jennings but Johnny Cash has always been her all-time favorite she can tell you anything and everything about him and name every single one of his songs he's ever put out which is many many!
Yeah.. he's the man.. and often emulated... you sould watch Merle Haggard sing like Johnny Cash.. its greatness..
I have a Johnny cash t shirt "man in black" I will never get rid of it. The forefather of music in general, God bless you my friend. We miss you
Johnny Horton. Marty Robbins. Tom T. Hall, I love his under rated, That's How I Got To Memphis. If you want to know about Johnny Cash's life, must watch the Academy Award winning movie about his life, Walk The Line.
Tom T. Hall was the truth, rest in peace. If you want to bawl your eyes out, listen to "Old Dogs, Children, And Watermelon Wine."
"Cocaine Blues"
"Jackson"
"Ring of Fire"
The man in black is an unforgettable legend. There are 3 great songs. As they all are...
Walk the Li e is a movie about him.
Maybe in your movie channel.
Also the song called The Man in Black! STARTLING
You got it Steve. I can't believe all the people recommending One Piece at a Time. A novelty song. Johnny's got all of these classic song and people are recommending "hee hee hee" songs.
I agree love 'Cocaine Blues' top fav.. 'Jackson' ...all the hits but also a big fav of mine...
" 25 minutes to go" someone made a cartoon video of it its awesome. Oh and almost forgot and I've loved it for so long & young people could learn a history lesson here ' The Ballad of Boot Hill' ✌
@@87ventus 25 Minutes To Go is on the funny side but it is also a pretty sick song. I like it! I don't know the Ballad of Boot Hill.
Marty Robbins is a great storyteller too. Man in a continental suit, strawberry roan, Big iron, Mr Shorty and of course " El Paso, Faleena and El Paso City"
My husband's grandmother went to school with Johnny Cash in Dyess, Arkansas. We have their yearbook, signature page and several photos of him throughout. ❤
The guy who played guitar on this and this period of Cash was Luther Perkins. He shouldn't be underestimated. Very minimalist, deceptively simple style that sounded country but wasn't really like anything anybody else was doing. Pretty influential on rock guitar.
Luther was a master. He's such a great pocket player.
Luther Perkins said one of my favorite things I've ever heard any musician say. An interviewer said to him once how his solo lines were so beautiful and sparse, great little melodies with not many notes in them. Luther replied, "Well, a lot of pickers play a whole lotta notes searching for the right ones, and I guess I just found the right ones." What a master.
@@jasonremy1627 And if you check out "Luther Played the Boogie Woogie" you can hear Luther "play the boogie in the strangest kind of way."
I hear echoes of his style in classic rock music - the Beatles, Buddy Holly, even the Byrds, etc. It seems like major artists were paying attention to him.
@@jennifermartin7791 Is this the Jennifer I know from school?
Johnny Cash was a unique writer and singer. He wrote songs about what he had lived. And he inspired others to find a music career.
He lived this?
@@MS-ro9dm He was in prison, I don't know if he shot anyone.
I have seen Johnny twice and one time with in about ten feet!!
Love him and his wife June Carter!!
“Understand Your Man” or “Don’t take you’re guns to town” or “Cry, Cry, Cry” or “Big River” all Hard Core Cash that are must listen’s for Cash connoisseur’s!
My favourite Johnny Cash song. What a voice!!! Right from his boots. 👢👢
Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦
If you want another great story telling song by Johnny Cash, check out "One Piece at a Time". You'll love it!
One of his funniest songs
@@keithneale6223 Another funny one is "The One On The Right Was On The Left"
Perfect!!👏
That's a favorite! It's funny 😁
Another great storyteller was Hank Williams Sr. He was called the hillbilly poet, and although his recording career only lasted a few years before he died in the backseat of his Cadillac at only 29 years old on New Years Day of 1953 (Yes, nearly 70 years ago), his songs are country STANDARDS. Hank was the OG, even Johnny Cash did an album of Hank Williams songs early in his career.
Love Johnny singing "Ring of Fire" it's a banger guys.
Johnny Cash definitely had his own sound! He grew up in Eastern Arkansas and his family was poor farmers. Life was hard for his family.
Just a few miles from where my mother was raised.
@@michaelnordan8603 Johnny was raised in Dyess. What town was your mother raised in? I'm from Arkansas and there are a lot of little towns here.
@@Judy0910 Mom grew up on a farm near Piggott, about fifty miles from Dyess, if I remember correctly.
@@michaelnordan8603 yeah. It's closer to 70 miles. That is mostly farm country on that side of the state. The most beautiful cotton field that I have ever seen was in that area.
Good Johnny Cash quality is that you can understand what he is saying without having to read the lyrics.
OHHHH MR JOHNNY CASH!!! What a talent he was
Hurt is one of my favorite songs, and the movie walk the line is a biopic about johnny cash.
Man in Black. He had just written it right before the performance. Amazing song imo.
Johnny Cash is the only artist that is in the Rock and World Hall of Fame, the Country Hall of Fame and the Songwriter Hall of Fame!!!!!!!!! No one else is like him
There's another cool legend who stands alone in his feat. Eric Clapton is the only person in history to have been put in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame with three different bands. And he was in a fourth so he could potentially be in four times one day.
@@Great-Documentaries you are talking about a guy who in their day had to travel to all of these places and perform!!!!!!!, If there was all of the stuff today about getting singers out there!!!!! He is the best artist that ever performed!!!! You have no ideas who and what you are talking about
@@Great-Documentaries what artist out there today is in the Rock and Roll hall of Fame, the country music hall of Fame AND the Songwriters hall of Fame??????? Noone because there is noone like him!!!!!?!!!
@@michaellynch5254 but is he in the Rock and Roll hall of Fame, the Country music hall of Fame AND the Songwriters hall of Fame
Not to mention the Gospel Music Hall of Fame.
I grew up listening to my Dad play this on his guitar, so very special...
I just looked up when this song was recorded - 1955 - he was 23! And his voice sounded like that! :0
Another country storyteller is Marty Robbins ~ El Paso, Devil Woman, Big Iron, Ballad of Alamo and more. You should check him out.
His version of "I've Been Everywhere" is a dizzying classic.
Boy Named Sue was written by Shel Silverstein, who also wrote the children's book The Giving Tree. He was a friend of Cash.
Johnny was one of the original rockers along with Elvis, Jerry Lee, and Carl Perkins they all knew each other.
"Hey Porter", "Ballad of a Teenage Queen", "I Still Miss Someone", "Jackson" (With June Carter), "Sunday Morning coming Down", "Cry Cry Cry" So many great Johnny Cash songs to hear yet.
I recommended Don't Take Your Guns to Town for a similar song to Folsom Prison.
Thanks for doing Johnny Cash! He was a true storyteller and he really supported the downtrodden. There will never be another Man in Black!
The unique boom-chicka-boom and tick-a-tat sounds of him and his original Band, The Tennessee Two!
He has a TON of great story songs. Some are light hearted like Boy Named Sue and One Piece at a Time. Some are serious like Long Black Veil. Some in between like Cocaine Blues. All of them are great songs.
You should have did Live from Folsum Prison, Folsom Prisom Blues. The prisonners loved it.
Johnny Cash was indeed multi talented and could fit into many genres. He has many gospel songs and featured in many shows/concerts/churches.
Another artist who is an amazing story teller, but you've only reacted to them once, is the great Garth Brooks. He has sold more albums than any other solo artist in history, and performed live in front of a million plus people in Central Park. Please give us some more Garth!
Storyteller: Pete Seeger. One of the legends in American folk music.
There is a movie about J. Cash called “Walk the Line” you might want to check out. Also, I want to recommend another great story song called El Paso by Marty Robbins that I think you’d enjoy. 👍
One of the saddest songs ever was sung by Johnny called "I Still Miss Someone". Ya gotta give that a listen. Thank you for the reaction!
And his cover of Hurt.
I know a contemporary rockabilly band that does this song and I've seen them do it live. Depending on what town they are performing in, the line often changes "Reno" to the name of a nearby town. Always gets a laugh.
He was a troubled soul, but he wrote and sang his ass off. Peace, Love!!
You guys should watch the live concert he did from Folsom prison.... It gives it a whole different feel!
If you want to know a little more about his life you need to watch "I Walk the Line" on your movie channel. It was a great movie. Check it out.
Awesome flick!!! Joaquin Phoenix literally channels Cash!
Johnny Cash
American Legend
Period
As June Carter-Cash once said, He's steady like a locomotive but sharp as a razor.
"Sunday morning coming down" is another great story song sung by Johnny Cash
Four Johnny Cash songs I would like to hear you react to are "Oney" "Blistered" "Orange Blossom Special" and "Tennessee Flat Top Box"
You can add "Ring of Fire" to that list.
“I shot a man in Reno” is a canonical lyric from folk music. There’s no way of knowing who even wrote it, it’s in hundreds of mostly unknown songs.
Johnny Cash. A man for every generation.
Johnny cash is a greatest country icon he was in hee haw back in the day he was so awesome will you please react to batdance by prince
Another great storyteller you'll like is Harry Chapin. Check out "Cats in the Cradle" and "Taxi".
Those songs are great, but my favorite is "Dance Band on the Titanic" is my favorite. I love the line "Chaplai calls out 'Womn and children and chaplains first!'"
Can't agree more with you. All of Harry's songs tell a story like W.O.L.D AND HIS sequel to Taxi and Circle and of course 20,000 pounds of Bananas. He was a great humanitarian doing over 300 concerts a year many for charity causes.
Your right on, no one better at telling the story and being raw like Johnny, Man in Black is another great story if you haven't heard it yet
I love to play my harmonica to this song, love when it comes up at a jam session.
Love me some Johnny Cash. He's a great story teller. Other great ones - Harry Chapin, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and John Denver.
Jim Croce is a pretty good story teller also, Bad Bad Leroy Brown, You don't mess around with Jim, among others
Yes! Add Billy Joel to the list with Goodnight Saigon,Allentown,and Downeaster Alexa!
Gordon Lightfoot,
IMO, Tom T. Hall, is a great story teller, old dogs, children watermelon wine, Ballad of forty dollars, Harper Valley PTA, Homecoming, just to name a few,
You guys really need to do a movie review/reaction to the movie "Walk The Line". It's all about JohnnyCash
"don't take your guns to town" is a great western Johnny Cash song.
Best "Story Teller" is actually a fellow named Tom T Hall. He was known for his story telling ..... Ode to a Switchblade knife, Homecoming, .... well, any of his songs, really. "Old dogs, children, and Watermelon wine" is a great start to Tom T Hall.
If you want storytelling that you can truly picture, check out “Uneasy Rider” and “Legend of Wooley Swamp”, both by Charlie Daniels
I second this!
Wooley swamp's a great one. Haven't heard that in years. Now I gotta pull out the CD
"Long Haired Country Boy"!
Uneasy Rider is my absolute favorite CDB song!
You like his storytelling give a listen to I've been everywhere. That song is wow. The way he goes through the names of the places is so different. That song I've been everywhere to me is more different than the other songs. ♥️♥️ Big respects to the Man in Black. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
"I've Been Everywhere"... is that the same song I keep hearing in a certain ad on UA-cam? I never heard that one before but what little I've heard sounds great.
@@gregorymoore2877 oh yes it is great. It's on UA-cam and it has the lyrics because it is the most hardest song to sing along with. Have a great week ✌️
That guitar work was courtesy of the late Luther Perkins, he invented that sound for his first group, Johnny Cash and the Tennessee two
Merle Haggard, then a 20-year-old San Quentin inmate saw Johnny Cash play at an 1958 show and changed his ways to become a very famous musician.
If you really appreciate storytelling, memorable tune and brilliant singing:
Try El Paso by Marty Robbins. You won’t regret it!🤔👌✌️
You should watch the live version, which Johnny Cash sang at a concert performed in Folsom Prison. It had the most impact. ...Btw: It was at that concert, where Johnny Cash debuted "A Boy Named Sue".
"He's a bad man" damn straight girl. Luvuguys
Big River is one of my favorites. There's a black and white video of it recorded at the Grand Ol Oprey in '62. He's very youthful in that video and his voice is like gold. Please do a reaction on it. I don't think anyone else has yet.
You just hit lucky #7 with Cash reactions, and it's one of his best. I hope you do "Man in Black" next. Or perhaps "One Piece at a Time", or "Wanted Man".
"I Will Never Marry" a duet with Johnny and Linda Ronstadt is worth a listen. Willie Nelson is a pretty good story teller. Johnny is SO believable, authentic as you say, Amber. Thanks guys. Love the reaction.
Live on Johnny's TV show.
The duet with Linda that is
ua-cam.com/video/oh6Re-fA0HQ/v-deo.html
Johnny Cash loved trains and has done so many great train songs ! Check out some of them like , “ Orange Blossom Special “, “Hey Porter” , Rock Island Line”, “ Wreck of Old ‘97, “ Train of Love”, Wabash Cannonball “ … and many more !
When asked why so many of his songs (especially early ones) had that "Chugga chugga" sound. Johnny said, " Cause' that's all we know how to play". Very simple, basic and classic songs.
I saw his show at the fillmore in San Francisco Nov 9, 1996 . It was the best concert I'd ever been to and I mainly listen to metal. The electricity in the air that night was so intense, it was the only show he ever really talked about after that, said something like " that San Francisco crowd got me fired up ". My friend and I will never forget how wild the crowd went when he sang " I shot a man in reno just to watch him die!" The whole place went crazy! God I miss the 90s. Try next 'long black veil '
About that line about "I shot a man in Reno", I definitely think Johnny Cash wanted to make the character unforgivable and unsympathetic so that you're glad he's still stuck in prison by the end. From Wikipedia: "Cash recounted how he came up with the line "But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die": "I sat with my pen in my hand, trying to think up the worst reason a person could have for killing another person, and that's what came to mind.""
I think it is one of the best lines of lyrics ever written, just because it tells you exactly who this person is.
@@kathyastrom1315 Agreed. It also makes this person a character rather than potentially a real person, I guess. Like yes, those kinds of evil-minded people exist, but how many people in prison are actually cold-blooded murderers, you know? Most people have a little bit of nuance and reasoning behind their actions. There was less chance that he would offend someone with this line by creating this almost guaranteed to be fictional character.
I love this song too but I think my favorite Johnny Cash song is "Ring of Fire". I remember of it from when I was a child and I was fascinated by the album cover (this was back in the 60's).
Good one. "Big River" is my favorite.
Me too!! Those horns! I'm all white but i swear I'm half Mexican, haha. Do that song just hits the spot
Johnny did a series of prison concerts at Folsom, San Quentin and others. At one of the shows he did at San Quentin, a young Merle Haggard sat in the audience. It was that performance that Haggard would later credit with helping him turn his life around, which up to that point, had been a hot mess. When he sings the line in "Mama Tried" about turning 21 in prison, that was something he knew from experience.
A GREAT movie for you to react to is Walk The Line. It's about his life, done in a flash back style. Reese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix do a great job and even released their version of Jackson.
Johnny is a great story teller. But Tom T Hall is known as "The Story Teller" and he was the best.
100% Agree. Love Johnny but Tom T was the best Bobby Bare was up there too.
Your comment raises the eternal question: Who's Gonna Feed Them Hogs?
Another great story song from the man is "Big River." Probably my favorite.
Finally a reaction video that actually talks about the song/ artist. Having some of the history thrown into the critique really makes for great content!
This is my second favorite song from the man in black. My #1 is "The ballad of Ira Hayes" which is a true story about a soldier from WW2. Amber get yer tissues handy you will tear up.
Not just any soldier. He is one of the men who raised the flag at Iwo Jima.
@Robbin Mills you and i both knew that , but J and Amber did not. I was hoping to keep that secret until they reacted to the song. But I'm not going to dog ya on it my friend. Ira Hayes was a great soldier , and a great man. His story needs to be told.
@@jimrupe9991 Sorry I spoiled it 😞. I just felt like his story deserved to be told.
@Robbin Mills it's all good brother. The only thing that matters is giving the men and women of our armed forces the respect and honor that they deserve , because they earned it.
