Chris Isaak - Ring of Fire

Chris Isaak singing "Ring of Fire" from his forthcoming American roots album. Video taken from the front row at the Centre for the Arts, State University of New York at Buffalo on December 8, 2010.

I've never heard Chris sing this. It features the incomprable Scott Plunkett as the mariachi horn section from the original as recorded by Johnny Cash. ;)

Agreed, justcurious!

[wentgaga]

are they playing i want you to want me this time around?

@wentgaga -- I haven't seen them since December but they weren't playing it then. I also haven't seen it in any setlists posted.

I sure hope Great Balls of Fire is on the new album. One of my faves.

I love the fact that guys like Chris are keeping the music of Johnny Cash and others alive. There is a new generation that has not heard these classics. Most of today's music is trash. Cash is a difficult cover but Chris does this song justice.

Wow! Hadn't heard Chris sing this before.... great version!

@greta6120 -- Well, I think Chris' performance is great considering they were jamming.......it's not in their official setlist yet and sometimes it's just fun to go for it.
