Hit: 5 Stars
I own as much recordings of Johnny Cash as I've been able to get my hands on through the years. I've always thought that his LIVE performances were his best; Folsom, San Quentin, London Palladium (The "Strawberry Cake" album), Madison Square Garden, Austin,TX., Louisiana Heyride, Osteraker, etc. and seeing him perform live a dozen or more times are my favorite memories. This live performance in Asbury Park, N.J. is indeed a rare performance and a must have for ALL Johnny Cash fans and for those who are not. This concert includes performances of many songs that John rarely sang in concert. This is a real treat to hear him sing "Tennessee Flat Top Box","Life's Railway To Heaven" and more. For those of you who enjoyed his "Ride This Train" segment on the TV show, he performs one here. All in all John always poured his heart into his shows, like he once said at a concert in Shreveport, LA. when the audience was small due to poor weather, he'll give you his best rather they're in front of 50,000 fans or 500, he'll give you the same quality performance. In conclusion, if you like even one Johnny Cash song, you'll love this CD.Free Music Review: Excellent Cash
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a great live performance from the legendary Johnny Cash. This is right before he made an amazing comeback with the american recordings series; but he still sounds great. The song selection is very good with the band sounding real tight, this is during a time when Cash's regular lead guitarist, bob wooton wasn't with him, but his replacement kerry marx sounds pretty good. I don't like the solo on hey porter much, they shoulda kept it like it was. The in between song banter is awsome with Cash being humorous and interesting. Overall this is a good choice for the casuall fan or the diehard like me.Free Music Review: Cash's Performance Highlights His Gospel Side
Hit: 5 Stars
Unlike so many "live" CDs where Johnny Cash is heard doing the same set of songs from show to show, this CD gives a full rendering of Cash's gospel side...and features singers from his tour (and TV show) that you rarely hear on the other "live" discs.
Its a definate "Must Have" for those who enjoy hearing Johnny Cash step beyond the standard 8 or 10 songs we've all heard a thousand times!

Hit: 5 Stars
Songs written years before [Johnny is 58 at this performance]some of them from the 50's and original Sun recordings are richly realized here and thrilling to listen to. The Sun recordings [also available from Amazon] are a must to really appreciate Cash, but this recording adds another dimension to enjoying his work. A few songs were new to me, maybe the first time on CD. And the patter adds fun.Free Music Review: The Great Lost Performance

In 1959, I purchased my first Johnny Cash record. If anyone ever watched his weekly show, bought his music, they need this to complete their collection. Every selection took me down memory lane of the past 40 years. Buy it!!! you won't regret it!
