Johnny Cash | At Folsom Prison (Expanded 2LP) | Vinyl

Produced by Bob Johnston and recorded live during two January 1968 performances at Folsom State Prison, the album captures Cash and his band — joined by June Carter, the Statler Brothers, and Carl Perkins — delivering raw, unvarnished performances for an audience of inmates who responded viscerally to songs about crime, punishment, and redemption. The title track “Folsom Prison Blues,” originally released in 1955, became a top-40 pop hit in this live version, and the album shot to #1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart while crossing into the pop top 15. At Folsom Prison is credited with resurrecting Cash’s commercial career after a rocky mid-1960s stretch and remains one of the most acclaimed live albums in American music, later inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame and the National Recording Registry. This expanded edition adds further performances and Hugh Cherry’s stage announcements from the concert across 2LP.
