Thanks so much for posting this. THIS is the best recording of this great tune. Even though Cash apparently liked it less than his later work, it's superb. The raw energy, the simplicity, the great guitar and background, and, duh, Cash's gritty voice. It all works. Thanks for allowing us to play it!
Doesn't get any better than this-- simple, with lots of raw energy and feeling. Not over-produced. Everything about this works. That's why it's still great after 55 years, and why it will be just as great in another 55 years!
Dunno if someone told you this already but, you did the first original session recording rendition of that song on Utube. At least, the fisrt original that shows when you search for folsom prison blues johnny cash original.
Thanks for posting this! Just watching it sends chills down my spine. Cash related to the average guy, cause he was one of us. Thanks, also, Ron for posting it on your page.
i got an ad... burst out laughing at the irony and vowed never to use that company

This is not blues. This is Country/Rockabilly. It is awesome.
