Man. Rodriguez had such a great voice. So underrated. Talented as all hell. I wish he’d recorded 100 more albums.

[@RobertLeeLewisThe2nd]

I see three thumbs down. I guess there are a few folks upset to see Johnny Cash show compassion toward aliens. Nowadays, its hard to find someone on television show the courage of Johnnny Cash.

[@CashPresley32]

People should immigrate yes, but legally.

[@guypaul]

+CashPresley32 You do know the song is about migrant workers, don't you? Not immigration. Also, "should" doesn't always factor into situations where people are trying to save the lives of their families. Even really, really white people don't watch their kids starve to death while they wait for the right paperwork.

[@CashPresley32]

guypaul And I am not really, really white. I am 3/4 white and 1/4 Native American.

[@PhilipSpencer74]

Why do you think they were deported? They were temporary workers deported when their contracts ran out. Most of them probably would have preferred to stay in the U.S, but immigration law did not allow them to stay and look for other jobs. A number of proposals to "improve" current immigration laws involve bringing back a similar "bracero" law.

I've been listening to one version or another for 40 years running, and it's as wrenching as ever. Beautiful version here -- Johnny Rodriguez matches Johnny Cash note for note, word for word.

[@PaulGoodeK]

What is the name of his song? I don't think of it as a matter of winners.

[@michaelkoebnick4226]

+Paul Goode The name of the song is Deportee (Plane Wreck At Los Gatos)

[@jaredclawson1813]

Cash shoulda shut up and let Rodriguez sing it alone. No, wonderful song. Like the version the Highwaymen did with Rodriguez as well. At the start and the end of the day were all still just a number of a "Deportee" to the Man because we're all replaceable, can never forget that .

A classic

[@edwardschindler5934]

when I first heard this song it was done by the Highway Men. It caught my attention because I am Native Armericn and this place was stolen by people who came from other lands, but it is not mentioned in American history how the lands were shared with those new people. what conflicts broke out was because of the disrespect shown to the indigenous people and to the Creation that gave us life. Then this song is heard and it left me wondering why this country had to be so selfish. I think that is something that should be realized and understood by all of us. daneh ho neyo' de:ong neh sa'nigo:in

"Deportee" always hits me in the feels, but this version had me weeping. It is sung with such tenderness by these men, who took the trouble to honor its bilingual nature. Does anyone know what program this was presented on, who introduced the song, and when it was aired? My guess is the late 60s/early 70s. I'd never heard of Johnny Rodriguez before, but he did a damned fine job here. I live in San Jose, and whenever I'm up on Hwy 17 pass to Santa Cruz, I always take a look back at Los Gatos, which we gringos tragically pronounce as "Las GAT-us." I don't know the exact location of the crash, but the telephone wires across the arroyo have those orange balloon-like plane warnings hanging from them. Where they installed as a precaution? I don't know, but I thought I'd share these details with my like-minded friends.

[@vgarza1972]

Rodriguez has the craziest guitar strumming lol!!

This live recording is far superior to the album version with Willie Nelson. The blend of these two very different voices, the vision of how the song obviously touches both men and being able to hear Rodriguez's narration at the end are all great.
