Johnny Cash - He Turned the Water into Wine - Live at San Quentin (Good sound quality) video free download
Whilst I have a rather different world view from the late great Johnny Cash, I'm nevertheless a big fan. He's the reason I first picked up a guitar in 2003.
I always wanted to see live concert footage, but with good clear sound, so decided to synchronise the sound from my CD with TV footage available on Youtube. Easier said than done though... The TV footage is faster and about a whole tone higher in pitch, so I had to slow the video down to match it with the audio.
I know I'm blatantly flaunting copyright guidlines, but I reckon a few people might like this so much that they go out and buy the CD... like I did when I first heard the Man in Black on the radio!

I agree. If i could be invisible, walk through walls and have the ability to time travel, i'd first go to Folsom to see his first concert, then after the show i'd go to 1969 to see this concert! Just you wait!!! One day we will have that technology! See ya there!12 years ago

@r95rdstr Cool, I'll need to check both of those out. I've read 3 biographies of the man in black, but some of the details aren't so fresh in my memory.12 years ago

@mppsproductions Agreed, if I had a time machine and could go back in time one, of my first 'destinations' would be one of the Johnny Cash prison concerts!12 years ago

@r95rdstr True, they were very well suited to each other. I presume you've heard the background to the song Ring of Fire?12 years ago

@TheEmpiricalTruth It's true that some of the greatest art has emerged from terrible situations and it'd interesting to speculate whether such fine music could ever arise from a more peaceful harmonious situation... I think though, that historically, concerts such as this will always stir peoples emotions.12 years ago

@sonvolt48 Agreed. He is a very complex man. I may not like or agree with the religiousity but I love his music and will continue to do so.12 years ago

@nett103 Nor was I. I have done a little research on Cash's religion and it does seem that he and June were born-again, Zionist types. After June's death....hard to say. But, as one writer said "he was an enigma...a paradox of the sacred and the profane." I think I will just continue to admire him as that...a very complex man.12 years ago

@sonvolt48 "just a hunch based on some of his final songs (eg. Hurt). Great man, great artist." From your previous comment, you made it seem like Cash wrote HURT since you called it his song. I was just saying that he didnt write it so it may not completely and accurately reflect his faith. I wasnt trying to start an argument.12 years ago

@finlarg Agreed. He has done some amazing covers through the course of his career. "Hurt" is probably my favorite cover Cash did.12 years ago

@finlarg very nice,, thanks,,12 years ago

@nett103 Cash covered a multitude of songs, some of them not religious at all. He was attracted to the music, the emotion and the stories, yet he always made them his own...12 years ago
finlarg
@itsasin1969 Not at all! But some of his music stirs me in a way that some people might describe as religious, but I know it's not. Even some of his highly religious songs, like this one and Where you there when they crucified my Lord? are like great stories to me... like Lord of the Rings or similar works of fiction.12 years ago

@nett103 And do you think that he didn't make the decision to cover that NIN song?12 years ago
finlarg
@sonvolt48 Mine was Folsom Prison Blues, but there are so many 'wrong' versions floating around that it took me a while to figure out the correct chords. nett103 is right, Hurt was written by Trent Reznor. Cash was a very strong believer and I doubt his faith was shaken, even with the death of June, shortly before his own.12 years ago
