Johnny Cash Is Still Number One !!!
Just an hour before he was to sing Folsom
Prison Blues at his own tribute concert last week, Johnny Cash wasnt sure he could
do it. "Its been 19 months" says the 67year old singer, who hadnt
preformed publicly since being diagnosed with a nervous disorder that has weakened him,
destabilized his blood pressure and nearly taken his life. " Even walking down the
stairs to go to the stage when I was going on, I had my doubts about myself, if I could
pull it off ," Cash says "because folsom Prison Blues takes a lot of energy or
not. "As it turned out, I did. I had more than enough. If they had scheduled more
songs for me, I probably wouldve sung them. Though he appeared grayer and frailer
than he did at his last concert, in in October 1997, when he nearly fell over while
reaching for his pick, the Man In Blacks commanding baritone still resonated through
New York Citys Hammerstein Ballroom. He sang Folsom Prison Blues, then led an
all-star chorus that included Sheryl Crow, Dave Matthews, The fugees, Wyclef Jean and
Cashs wife, June Carter Cash, through I Walk The Line

Johnny
Cash Tribute #2

I really loved watching the TNT Johnny
Cash Tribute, (Truly a great show)!. I thought the highlight of the show, for me was when
Johnny Cash sang Folsom Prison Blues, and in the end of the song throwing his guitar on
his back stepping up in that same tuff Johnny Cash style, an bowing to his audience, in
which Ive seen him do for many many years. To all the artist that participated in
show they all did a great Job in doing a wonderful Tribute to Johnny Cash. Also Thanks to
TNT Cable Network for making the show possible. Steven Menke

Rosie
Flores - "When I was in my old punk band, the Screamin' Sirens, we would
listen to Johnny Cash on an old 8 track we had. When " Big
River
"
came on, we would crank it. I finally met him '96 at the Austin
airport. What a great man indeed."
Rev. Horton Heat - "One day I was hangin' out with my cousin who had just
gotten back from Vietnam
. He
stuck the in the 8 track tape of "Live at Folsum Prison". I still
get chills when I think about the impact that had on me. It became the
template for everything I try to do now, both musically and lyrically."
