More Johnny Cash Material On The Way

Submitted by B_Werner

Edited by erin_broadley



In case you didn't have enough Johnny Cash discs in your collection, you can expect some more previously unreleased material to come down the pipe soon. One of Cash's 1990 performances is making its way into stores next month.

The Great Lost Performance finds Cash belting out many of his classic tunes. Recorded at the Paramount Theater in Asbury Park, New Jersey, it's a nice document of what Cash sounded like ina live setting as he was nearing the end of his days. Plues, you'll have reason to feel all wrm and fuzzy as the set features a duet with the late man's lady, June Carter Cash.

Whoa. It was probably the night I saw him there. I've kicked myself repeatedly since then for not taping it (it was one of the handful of the 50 or so shows I saw that year that I didn't tape). He was awesome. This makes me smile.

I could see releasing this if it was a special event, like if springsteen joined him on stage, but just to release what sounds like a rather ordinary show is kind of lame. I'm sure the Cash archives are full of great unreleased songs, or better live concerts. The only Cash cd I have is him and Dylan in the studio singing traditional country songs. Why not release stuff like that more?

It's like I love Neil young but every 2 yrs he releases a live cd with Crazy Horse doing the same set. How many fucking times canyou hear Cortez the Killer???

I've been wanting the Cash/Dylan/Carl Perkins sessions to be officially released for decades. The boots I have are fairly low generation and pretty high quality, but I'd love to hear them officially. I'd also like to see some Highwaymen stuff released.

How many fucking times canyou hear Cortez the Killer???

Great song, and most of the times I've seen him (when he plays it - it's not an 'every show' song) it had quite different feels to it.

while i somewhat agree that it seems like they are "cashing in" on his death, everything released thus far has been nothing short of amazing, and i feel this will probably be the same....along with the next American recordings album too...

Ouch.

. . . the next American recordings album too

I wondered when I saw the thread title if this was that. Great so far.

I can't wait. I have hardly anything from that period in his career. Certainly not much that was recorded live. This will be a great addition.

it's always a toss-up when the works of the dead are issued. I guess it gets down to the quality of said works. Wasn't it Matisse who in his will wanted all of his painting destroyed? And then they weren't, it was pretty cool?
