	Folsom Prison Blues - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"Folsom Prison Blues" is an American country music song written by Johnny Cash in the early 1950s and originally recorded with his trio in 1956 for the Sun Records label.
		In the lyrics, the jailed protagonist listens to the whistle of the train outside his cell and recounts his deeds (this song's most famous line is undoubtedly "I shot a man in Reno/just to watch him die"); imagines the free people inside the train; and dreams of what he would do if he were free.
		Cash included the song in his repertoire for decades; the definitive live performance is considered to be the opening song of a concert recorded at Folsom Prison itself on January 13, 1968.

	Soapbox: Keb' No!
		For what is probably Johnny's most famous song, "Folsom Prison Blues", the huge honor of doing that song was given to blues artist Keb' Mo'.
		Keb' Mo' does acoustic-based bluesy stuff, plays acoustic Delta slide guitar, is one of the few "new" fl blues artists to come out in a while, and from what I have heard of his stuff is a pretty talented guy.
		At the time "Cocaine Blues" was written (by T.J. Arnall, first released in 1947 by Roy Hogshead), cocaine was thought of as relatively benign (though illegal), even having positive uses in medicine.

		The interaction of a volatile prison population starved for entertainment and a desperately on-form Johnny Cash was electrifying.
		The impact of Johnny Cash's proto bad-boy on country, blues, and rock is inestimable, which doesn't even speak to the fact that the man is a great entertainer.
		It is ironic that even though this concert was given at a prison and most of the songs are about being destitute, this recording is fun to listen to.

		I continued to visit him at Folsom and he became the 'Voice of Folsom Prison' on their radio station that was beamed into the cells.”
		On the flight to Sacramento, John, wearing a blue blazer with a white turtle-necked sweater, wrote song lyrics in a blue spiral notebook.
		The prisoners roared—whistling, screaming, and stomping their feet in the glory of the moment, while the guards on the catwalks clutched their rifles.

		It is, by turns, exhilerating and harrowing; among the tunes is a full rendition of "A Boy Named Sue," the rollicking, rowdy smash that in 1969 topped the C & W singles charts for five weeks, while also reaching number two on the Pop side.
		There are also interviews, some searingly candid, with the prisoners and guards who were present when the Johnny Cash Show packed the big house.
		Backed by his scythe-sharp band, the Tennessee Three, Cash's quavering bass-baritone renders hits, hymns, history (personal and American), humor and, of course, the singular "boom-chicka-boom" railroad rhythm that is one of Country music's most ineffable, instantly identifiable sounds.
