I dont think this version of the band had a edge to it they never sounded great. the simple guitar-bass-and drum was what he should have had.the piano took away instead of adding to
this movies was actually in the early eighties. You can tell by the band, which is not the Tennessee Three, but the Great Eighties Eight, and Johnny is Thinnner than in the early seventies becuase he was back on drugs.
it was the tennesse three,Because bob wooton is in ther and marshal grant and ws holland,The only two people that are not in it is jack clement and the paino player earl poole ball
This is NOT the Tennessee Three. Marshall grant is not playing bass. The band consits of Bob Wootton, WS Hollnad, Jimmy Tittle-bass, Earl Poole Ball--piano, Jacke Hale Jr. and Bob Lewin-trumpets. the band is caled the Great Eighties Eight. This clip is from about 1983, seeing as Johnny is skinny from his second drug bings, and he looks like he does in the cover of JOhnny 99!
Well, I think Marshall had already been fired, hadn't he? You know, when Cash was back on drugs (sadly) and before he realized he had to fight against them before his career would end, he made Marshall Grant leave the band, in his drug-baffled head. Later he was real sorry about that and Grant and him became friends again.
Part 2: ... Yeah I don't like the overdressed sound, indeed. The 80s were a bad time for him, I suppose. The 90s, when he sang with the Highwaymen were much better. His music lost a lot of dear elements in the 80s, I think. Luckily he went back to the roots later!
Real interesting video. Was this from around 1982-83? His hair is cut like it was on the cover of "Johnny 99". What kind of concert was this? Not often I've seen Jack Clement playing, he's usually the producer.
year?

This band kicks ass. the piano player is smoking! Anyone know who he is? Also, this one is in E, better for guitar jam, along

Earl Poole Ball is the man behind the piano. He played for Johnny for over 20years.

This band lacks that "Chunk" that robs the suspense out of this great number unlike earlier renditions of this,circa 1959-60, I feel.

I don't know, I think the piano was an alright addition, but in the early seventies when Larry Butler and Larry McCoy played in the band.
