Never get tired to see this man perform.Its a pity we have to die.RIP Johnny

[@vicentepineda1860]

Thanks for posting this memorable show with one of the giants of music. Mr. Cash, in his music and lyrics, perhaps made some enemies, but so many others just loved him. Thanks again.

[@vicentepineda1860]

Thanks. Glad you are among those who continue to enjoy his music.

[@fredjuergen2439]

Ich bereue es Johnny nicht live erleben zu haben. Ich weiß nicht genau, aber wir haben beide eine sehr tiefe Stimme., deswegen liebe ich ihn, diese sonore tiefe Stimme

[@vicentepineda1860]

@@fredjuergen2439 Thank you. Can't read your language, but if you enjoy Mr, Cash's music, good for you.

[@80sSteve-fd5em]

You're so right. Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn, just to mention a few are all gone.

[@marrianner.1682]

This was a wonderful concert, with Johnny singing his patriotic songs. Then, he went into some classic Cash hits. He had guests including an entertaining performance with June Carter. This was 1982 and you have to look hard to see Vince Gill, who at the time was merely a member of Rodney Crowell's band. 💗Vince was not yet the mega superstar and, of course, with that, he was not mentioned as a guest. Marty Stuart was a member of Johnny Cash's band, he was talented at such a young age. The show was an entertaining event.

[@kulmainer]

Him and June Carter are Legends and pure Love!

[@ruthwidlund6429]

Johnny Cash was one in a million. There will never be another like him.

[@senoiamcgreggor7291]

There will never be another Johnny CASH,! He is missed so much! Loved this show! ❤😊!

What an absolute treasure..Johnny Cash/ June Carter Cash . They belonged to the Lord and gave Him credit for their lives/ talent…Grateful America is honoring him in 2024 .. Placing his statue in Capitol Rotunda…… 🇺🇸🎶🎶✝️

[@AchtZeh]

What a lineup!!! Vince Gill, Rodney Crowell, Marty Stuart, Steve Goodman, John Prine, all up there with Johnny.

[@marrianner.1682]

Vince was not near the superstar he became. He was a member of Rodney Crowell's band. You have to look hard to see him.

[@johnblack1030]

I've been singing Johnny Cash songs ever since my voice changed in Junior High School. And I'm proud to sing any song the Man in Black has ever written or sang. It's now 2024 and I'm 72 years young, and these songs are still as good as they've ever been. And even when he sings another's song, like Sunday Morning Coming Down, it's special. Thank You Johnny for all the memories.

[@19freddie58]

would like to listen to your version of the songs

[@catherinecattiaux4877]

Même Kris n'arrivait pas à descendre aussi bas que Johnny une belle voix chaude

[@allanmiell7726]

Makes me feel like picking up my guitar again and doing all of those songs I used to play and sing. Makes for many tears in my eyes. I am 82 and sang along and played from it now seems like I was still in nappies. Yes He was my music hero, good on ya John I will pass on with great memories. Thanks for a great ride, I just might go and get my guitar and do some great music.

I’ve followed this man and family after hearing the studio release of: Jackson of 1967. Seeing this performance was a true blessing for me. After my ruptured brain aneurysm and stroke, as part of my rehab, I was sponsored to learn something new I chose to play a drum kit. W.S. Holland (Fluke) is my mentor. Drum Daddy, if you will! Even going down the road, I’m playing my Snare on the upper leg of my pants. My bass drum in my foot, slap on the floor board. Song after song, Now I’ve even got my wife joining in!😂

All the hell in my life Johnny Cash at the dining room table for the time I was 16 and so I was married and took the hell away like a real man just like Johnny Cash

[@marEng-ef7ep]

🎉 1:19:45 you taught me about Johnny my father was a marine from the Vietnam war raised off of 16th avenue in Nashville Tennessee in a reform school as an orphan he taught me about Johnny Cash

[@marEng-ef7ep]

Sitting at my father's dining room Table listening to music and bonding with only one man could have song Johnny Cash

[@marEng-ef7ep]

Together they showed me a whole different world then the hell I came from

[@tami-ih8os]

I think that Johnny was a human angel and so was jun3 and her whole Carter family's outlook was what they could contribute to the world instead of taking from it sincerely Tami Marie

[@roccorusso7764]

This video is worth watching just to see Steve Goodman's performance. He was such a talent that died too young.

[@user-on4fg7cr7c]

A true artist😊

[@glennstenbergkvist5971]

This could be the most magnificent recorded showcase for JRC available. Wonderful pacing and performances by all. Nearly every number by each performer is perfectly rendered. It is interesting to conjecture how many in the audience on this auspicious night were there with even basic familiarity with JRC's work (I would guess 60%). This show is a wonderful document. Thank you!

[@hisaw100]

AMEN! Flat out --PERFECT---

[@marilynjones6111]

3 of Johnny Cash’s sons in laws on the show. Rodney Crowell (Rosanne), Jimmy Tittle (Cathy) and Marty Stuart (Cindy).

A sat in with Bob Wooten when his band plated at the Birchmount Tavern 11 years ago which I sang Ring Of Fire which I sang it in G which was my vocal range but did it and everyone liked it.

[@johnsigh5996]

I had the pleasure of meeting Johnny Cash at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Ft. Lauderdale at least four times over the years, where he came to preform in Concert..was a wonderful singer and Gentleman .. I do remember shaking his hand, it was warm and firm…Something I will always remember.. Regards Johnny Cash, you’re One of the Best! Skip Sigh

Incredible show thanks for sharing

[@larsnicklasson9961]

Super Super (from Sweden)

[@michaelw366]

This is a real treasure of a show. It got me thinking though of a show I would love to see… Rodney Crowell, Vince Gill, and Marty Stuart doing a tour, strictly acoustic instruments and just the 3 of them, no band, singing old songs that are not necessarily their own, but of their heroes. Mixed with some stories of their time spent with the original stars of country/bluegrass music

[@frankietiles]

Něco úžasného. Škoda, že jsem nebyl na jeho vystoupení ve Sportovní hale v Praze v roce 1978.

[@JohnnyCashFanatic]

Although not as well known as his 25th anniversary special, the 1982 HBO concert was a highlight for his career. Snippets of “Ragged Old Flag” and “Remember the Alamo” was shown on the original and re-broadcast of his final interview with Larry King in 2002.
