Something about the inmates? reactions and Johnny?s interactions with them makes this SO authentic, the atmosphere is just perfect. The music is, of course, as cool as it comes, but even when it drops minutely in quality you can still tell the impact it?s having on the prisoners. Amazing live album.

Badass makes a badass album. For real, the band and johnny do so well here, and perform his best songs, making it a classic.

Johnny Cash was for Country music what Elvis was for Rock & Roll. He was simply the coolest guy who ever set foot on the Grand Ol' Opry stage. It wasn't just his booming bass-baritone voice his swaggering cocksure confidence that earned him this compliment. He was also a very spiritual & compassionate man who showed great empathy for his fellow man. His compassion is on display here on this recording made at Folsom State Prison in Represa, California on January 13, 1968. Given the conditions that these prisoners lived in, Johnny offers them a little hope, inspiration & lots of entertainment. Although he had performed at several other prisons, his performance at Folsom State Prison in California offers a prime example of why people loved Johnny Cash so much. His warmth and honesty permeates every minute of this album. He also chose a wonderful selection of songs that the prisoners would be able to relate to. You don't have to be a Country music fan to recognize the magic this album captured on this album. JOHNNY CASH AT FOLSOM PRISON set the bar high for anyone brave enough to follow Johnny's large footsteps. One of the finest Country albums ever made. Highlights: "Folsom Prison Blues", "25 Minutes To Go", "Cocaine Blues", "The Wall", "Jackson", & "I Got Stripes".

10; Best live album ever, best country album ever, and the prison setting is amazing. This is one of the very few classic country albums to exist.

Cash's best collection of simple, catchy melodies and simple, compelling, wonderful stories. And yes - it is most badass.
