Efrim speaks....


#12 Johnny Cash, At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash may or may not have made my original top 25 but a significant event happened that skyrocketed him to a top 12 artist. It occurred at Thanksgiving this year when my year and a half-year old nephew Efrim left the Thanksgiving table asking for "Johnny Cash." Sometimes it takes a toddler to remind you what good music really sounds like. His favorite song seemed to be "Walk the Line", which isn't on this album, but this is when I started getting back into Johnny. I really like the story of this concert that is included in this album. My favorite songs are Folsom Prison Blues, I Still Miss Someone, and Jackson.
