johnny cash + the carter family = awesome

Does anyone know if Jan Howard recorded with the Carter family? She really comes through in this perfomance, and makes a great addition to the wonderful harmonies!
-
Country music today lost its folk element, which is what is so present here and in Johnny Cash's music as well.
-
This is what country music is supposed to sound like; it reflects the true spirit and history of American country life. Johnny Cash and The Carter Family are legends that will live forever!

Thanks, (3years after this comment was made) Ive been watching all the Prauge videos and wondered as well.
-
anyone who doesn't like this and doesn't think they can sing don't understand how music was then....all we have now is techno crap where the singers are covered with synthetic voice changers.....

Where did the C&W musicians meet? Crossing paths at festivals, on the Opry stage, on the Louisiana Hayride, at State Fairs, Truck Stops or at Guitar Pulls in the Nashville area on Sunday afternoons, or hiring into a show. Dusty Rhodes' Band in Memphis often played state fairs with a dozen or more of the Sun boys (Elvis, Cash, Twitty, Orbison, Rich, the Perkins Brothers, The Killer, et al). for $1,000 split between the Sun acts, $2 each per show, who slept on the motel floors and got meals.

The Carter family supplimented the voice of Johnny's so well, especially June's. Together thier voices blend into a angelic symphony unmatched by any duet! Johnny and June are as musically intertwined to perfection.

Jan Howard was one of June's closest friends from her Grand Ole Opry days. (Jan was Bill Anderson's duet partner.) Jan left the Cash touring show in July 1979.(Marshall Grant's book has some interesting comments.)

-
For how long did she stay with them. I'd never seen her before. Where did she and June meet?

Gorgeous!!! Thanks! Still curious as to the fourth Carter though... does anyone know who it is?
-
Terrific performance. I love this song. It's one of the best Carter songs.
If you do not like Johnny Cash or The Carter Family than go to other singers' videos. Keep off these videos if you hate them so much. As for me, I love this music, so I will stay here and listen to great music.
