  • San Quentin, I Hate Every Inch of You.” Johnny Cash on February 24, 1969, Johnny Cash Performed at San Quentin for the Fourth Time
    “San Quentin, I hate every inch of you.” Johnny Cash On February 24, 1969, Johnny Cash performed at San Quentin for the fourth time. He wrote a song for the occasion entitled, “San Quentin.” Before performing, he tells the men that he tried to capture what he thought were some of their feelings about San Quentin. The response to the song was subdued until he sang the line quoted above. The men broke out in wild cheers. The performance was recorded and “Johnny Cash Live at San Quentin,” went on to become the second largest selling live album of all time- topped only by, “Johnny Cash Live at Folsom Prison.” Johnny Cash, the Man in Black, was giving voice to them. The cheers were not so much about the lyrics, but that he devoted attention to their circumstances and their situation. Those inside the walls are forgotten people. When they are seen and heard, it is something to cheer about. Last weekend, a group of us from across the country met at San Quentin to discuss prison ministry. We were able to attend Mass inside the unit Sunday morning and visit with inmates beforehand. I spoke with Brandon, a 21-year-old, who is four years into a 15-year sentence. He has a wife and a two-year-old son. We talked about his training and his plans for the future, but mostly we talked about his wife and son. I asked their names and promised to pray for them, which made him very happy. Then, I asked Brandon for a favor.

  • “At Folsom Prison”—Johnny Cash (1968) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “At Folsom Prison”—Johnny Cash (1968) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Cary O’Dell Original album cover Original label Glen Sherley Johnny Cash first sang about Folsom Prison in 1955 in his self-penned song “Folsom Prison Blues.” Originally inspired by an American fictional film on the prison he had seen while in the army in Germany, “Blues” became one of Cash’s signature songs and a staple of his repertoire. On February 10, 1968, the song had a homecoming of sorts when Cash and his talented sidemen staged—and recorded--a historic concert at California’s Folsom State Prison, then a maximum security facility housing well over 1,000 inmates. The resulting album, “At Folsom Prison,” is a seminal work of American country music and, arguably, the defining achievement of Johnny Cash’s long and remarkable career. The February ’68 concert was not the first time Cash had performed at Folsom, or at a prison. Since the release of the original “Folsom Prison” single in ’55, Cash had been receiving numerous invitations to perform at penitentiaries from inmates who sensed a kinship with the Man in Black. A devout Christian, Cash saw such performances as part of his ministry and he played his first penitentiary, Huntsville State Prison in Texas, in 1957. He followed that performance up with a show at San Quentin where, in the audience, among the inmates, sat a young Merle Haggard. It was Cash’s friend, pastor and prisoner counselor Reverend Floyd Gressett, who first brought Cash to Folsom. His inaugural show behind that prison’s legendary Gothic walls was in 1966 and proved an artistic, if undocumented, success.
