Product Description
From the summer of 1969 to the final show in March of 1971 (58 episodes in all) The Johnny Cash TV Show not only exposed an American audience to an eclectic array of musical talent but also helped establish Johnny Cash as a true artist humanitarian and larger-than-life legend. The 66 performances contained on this new Best-Of DVD showcase the spectrum of incredible performers that Johnny hand-picked to be on his show many for their first network appearance. So "come along and ride this train" - the train that Cash envisioned or us all - every week on The Johnny Cash TV Show and now for generations to come.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MUSIC DVD/CONCERTS UPC: 886971539196

During the late 1960s and early '70s, Johnny Cash introduced country fans and viewers of his weekly variety show to hand-picked artists-- some contemporary country's best—whom they may not have otherwise had exposure to. This "best of" anthology is a little more random than its title suggests, omitting the duet with Bob Dylan from the program's debut (perhaps the best remembered highlight from the series) in favor of a duet with the then-emerging Joni Mitchell on "Girl From the North Country," and including a hokey arrangement of "I've Been Everywhere" with Lynn Anderson. Yet Ray Charles' soulful recasting of "Ring of Fire" is a revelation, and a roster ranging from Eric Clapton's Derek and the Dominoes to Roy Orbison to George Jones and (separately) Tammy Wynette made for some memorable television. --Don McLeese

 Classic Johnny! March 2, 2009

Awesome, just awesome! It was so nice to see him young and strong and as confident as he has always been. It took me right back to sitting on the living-room floor with a soda pop, popcorn, and the rest of the family (all 10 of us!). Johnny Cash is, and always will be, a national treasure!
...........and the others on the DVD were great too. Back in the day when teeth weren't straightened or whitened, there was no lazer eye corrections, and the future *stars* looked like they were playing at the local fair. That's AMERICA right there!
Awesome! February 9, 2009

I bought this for my little brother for Christmas, and immediately wanted to steal it from him! A must-have for Cash fans!

A cute DVD of Johnny cash music and artists that he supported. A bit cheesy, but it was in accordance with the time.

Can't beat this. I wish there was more from certain performers, but if your a big fan of any of 'em it's not a bad deal. And it is a must have for Johnny Cash fans. Too bad they don't make them like they used to. But at least we have them on DVD.

Johnny Cash's best work October 16, 2008
John B. Holdway (MD USA)
This series is Johnny Cash's best work. A bit dark, maybe because he knew these were his last cd's. BUY THEM ALL.
