He escaped 17 times before he was transferred to San Quentin Prison, where he saw Johnny Cash perform. The performance inspired him to clean up his act and become a country singer.

My dad bought this record shortly after it came out, and we listened to it many times over the years, my mom, dad, brother and myself. It never got old. I had the record 'til a few short years ago when we moved. My dad, my dear younger brother are gone now and my sweet aged mother is in a home now as I couldn't care for her properly anymore due to her illness. Today I learned what true heartbreak was when I took her to this place, as we'd been inseperable since my brother's suicide 12 1/2 years ago. The people there showed kindness and this assured me that she would be cared for well and given the attention only other women can give that I could not. When I got home a short while ago this video turned up as by some greater will. I'm gonna let my ma get settled in and go visit her in 3-4 days. It's gonna be different being alone now, but this journey's not over yet. Maybe some good things will happen too.

None of his prison shows were about saying all these guys shouldn't be there. Prisoners like at 34 minutes probably had their key threw away. Confined to a cell and the punishment fits the crime. But does that mean a fellow human being shouldn't have at least 1 thing to look forward and 1 good memory in the place that has their life before they die?

Johnny Cash, what an amazing performer, what a kind, loving human. The world needs Johnny Cash Heart.

[@veronicagrijalva-palmisano7465]

Johnny and June Carter Cash were so unbelievably awesome and oh so generous! ❤❤❤🎉🎉❤❤

[@slowhypno]

If only for his longevity he was the greatest male country singer ever. Six decades of touching hearts. I forgot he brought the Carter family with him to San Quentin. There was a story that Merle Haggard was in the audience.

June Carter Cash - legend for a reason and she wrote THAT song: Ring Of Fire!

[@MegaBeatles1966]

Jimmie Rodgers, Woodie Guthrie, Bob Dylan AND Bruce Springsteen are superb, thanks for upload this footage! Greetings from Argentina

[@WilkinsonX]

His mesh of styles was so awesome. It’s like the bones are country, the narrative is the blues, it has the energy of rock, and throw in comedy record.

[@FRED-sr4me]

My dad liked Johnny Cash. I just bought just bought Johnny Cash Folsom prison blues CD yesterday. I should have bought this one two. He was a great musician.

[@robs6372]

When you hear the guard talking about inmates and what they do as a means for survival you can really hear the empathy in his voice, he truly is sympathizing with the inmates at that point. Even when he talks about inmates giving the staff a hard time, he knows that it’s a means for survival for some 23:44

[@charleslarson6961]

Having once worked in a Prison, I can relate to what this incredible man meant to those fellows when he appeared. Great, great man!

[@cpjuanrail3966]

Doubt it

[@carlmorgan8452]

How can anyone

[@tomservo5347]

Johnny definitely had a talent for connecting with people no matter how different. It's like he walked a mile in everyone else's shoes like a typical Pisces and knew how to empathize.

The recorded concerts that served as the basis for Live at Folsom Prison (1968) and Live at San Quentin (1969) weren't the only prison performances by Cash. In all, he did at least 30 prison concerts throughout the United States. 12:34 Source: California State Library

I first saw Jonny Cash in a film at the local cinema when i was 14 years old "Folsom Prison Blues" From the first song i was hooked with the music, words, and Johnny. i am now sixty six years old and listening to this, it takes me back!!! thank you mister.

[@geoffreybuist3950]

@Johnny Cash Records yes i did see him on stage at the Wembley Arena along with the rest of the highway men !!! fantastic night, fantastic memories. So many years ago "1992ish but seems like yesterday.

I love Johnny for who he was. He was for the forgotten man and woman. He despised racism and hatred. He's not my favorite singer,although he's up there, but definitely by far hes my favorite entertainer.

[@velvetpaws999]

Watching this movie and listening to all the inmates talking about their lives, their time in prison, what they've done.... it makes me choke up and feel the anguish. Johnny is a true force of nature. He means every word he says and sings. The tremendous wave of energy he propels across the entire room can be felt even on this video. I can feel his spiritual power. The men were watching as if it were a religious sermon, and it was, in a way. I regret that I never got to attend a show with Johnny Cash. By the time I grew up, he was already too old and did no longer perform. How I wish I could turn back time!

[@artinohanian7655]

There's (was) only one Johnny Cash. He's giving concerts in heaven now, along with Elvis, Buddy, Roy and other icons.

[@irisessex90]

Johnny Cash never thought he was such a big star that he couldn’t relate to the common man and he was a big star there’s no doubt. He always thought of the incarcerated and didn’t think he was above other people. They thought he was crazy for wanting to go to a prison and put on a show but his mind was set on it. Can you imagine any artist doing this today? I can’t believe he was able to do it then. He gave people hope and performed for free at the prisons and jails.

[@strikem1241]

As I grow older I enjoy Johnny Cash even more I miss him that is for sure.

[@meredithmacinnis1237]

A masterpiece ... watch it on the biggest screen you have, and may God bless your hearts.

[@danabrownprivaledge]

This is one of the best videos i've ever seen hands down

[@SharonMartinez]

I find this video haunting. Both heartwarming and heartbreaking. The men in the audience look beautiful. They are shining and happy and grateful. Imagine walking away from that uplifting show to a cell and the culture in which they must live. And the haunting part: all of them are long gone. RIP to all of them. RIP to JC. Johnny Cash was the Real Deal. He truly cared. His empathy was genuine. He was much more than his tremendous talent.

[@terryglovier5803]

These are my exact thoughts as I watched. I do a prison ministry in a maximum security prison and sometimes it feels like a dungeon in an old black and white movie. Hats off to people like Johnny Cash who bring a little color.

[@jessewolf6806]

My empathy is more for the prisoners’ victims. Rape, murder, etc...And quite a few of these men could certainly still be alive.

[@glovierstreeservice3271]

@@jessewolf6806 thats true but there are also people locked up that were wrongfully convicted and they certainly need some light in a very dark place. Its a mixed bag as it is on the outside

This concert was in 1969...if someone was 19 at this time they would now be 72 this year.

Cash was an incredible human being. Guy was as gangster as they come. That’s why he never had a problem plying at a prison.

Johnny Cash is an American Legend. He had a very tough growing up and had so much strength to overcome his pain. I would recommend reading his incredible and touching life story. A rare and unique human being.

[@lorihunt-garbee8260]

He died when I was 12 years old. Heard about it on the news and asked my mother what songs he sang; only heard the name, never the music really. My mom felt like she had failed me as a parent and bought me a CD the next day. Been a fanatic ever since and I can only imagine what it was like back then when it was still fresh.

[@Beth-yq9uj]

Johnny Cash is the best. Even as a little girl I loved watching his show at my grandparents . Man in black.
