Country boy from the south right here from North Carolina myself born Luther Perkins has been my main gitar influence ever since I was a little kid started playing guitar I'm 20 now and Luther Perkins is still my number 1 guitar hero I even use flatwound strings and a good ol' tube amp
Luther's great. And I love it that he looks nervous as hell on TV--he's human! Sam Phillips said that Luther would get all nervous and flustered in the studio because Cash would get impatient with him, so the key to the trio's success was "to take it off Luther", meaning doing everything to put Luther at ease so he could hit his licks.
Luther Perkins is a musical genius with that electric guitar, I love how mid way thru he makes you think the song is over then picks it back up again bet that fooled a lot of people back in 1958 lol
Brother Mack There wasn't a need for one in 1950s folk music. They eventually did recruit a drummer when they gained popularity and had to change from a folk style to a more traditional country.
i was 11 years old when this was a hit with me, I still play my guitar and sing this song 60 years later and I think that this is one of his favorites as well.
Honestly, now listening to the rhythm, johnny cash would have never gotten to be a star without Luther Perkins. That man had talent. Johnny had the voice. But without Luthers fill ins and rhythm, there's just a country artist strumming a guitar.
If you listen to a studio outake of the recording of this Luther does indeed miss a note during the opening and you can hear him say 'I gotta hit all of the strings'
Just around the corner there's heartache Down the street that losers use If you can wade in through the teardrops You'll find me at the Home of the Blues I walk and cry while my heartbeat Keeps time with the drag of my shoes The sun never shines through this window of mine It's dark at the Home of the Blues Oh, but the place is filled with the sweetest mem'ries Memories so sweet that I cry Dreams that I've had left me feeling so bad I just want to give up and lay down and die So if you've just lost your sweetheart And it seems there's no good way to choose Come along with me, misery loves company You're welcome at the Home of the Blues Just around the corner there's heartache Down the street that losers use If you can wade in through the teardrops You'll find me at the Home of the Blues Yeah, you're gonna find me at the Home of the Blues
Finally someone agrees every time I say this someone's always like will Hendrix was better yes and his style he was but Luther had his own style and Luther's style speaks to me more he's the reason why I've been playing guitar since I was 7 I'm 20 now and I even use flatwound strings and a tube amp with a 12au7 preamp tube I get a really close Luther Perkins tone
I went to Dyess today.....his boyhood home...absolutely amazing. I had goosebumps the entire time....he is a very special man. I normally don't get star struck since I worked in radio for 13 years....I've met Garth, George Strait, Tim Mcgraw, Kenny Chesney.....you name them, I've met them. Nothing compares to what I did today. I was absolutely blown away.....
Cash had, and still has, an amazing effect on people with his larger than life persona! The charisma he had was tangible and still is somehow through his spirit. He was likely the most genuine megastar ever to live in America to date. Likely no one will surpass him in this regard. He was and still is an emblematic and iconic figure. In his person, he held the opposing forces with which all of mankind struggles - good & evil, darkness & light, love & hate, hope & desperation, healing & pain, life & death. It is highly likely that anyone will ever surpass his ability to maintain his sanity, on the ‘world stage’, and be so transparent as a person. Only Cash!
I saw john here in London many years ago he was a giant of a man with a heart as big as his frame & lots of talent within that frame I'm sad he is dead but happy he cant hear todays rubbish.
"Home of the Blues" was a blues record shop that Cash frequented before he became too famous and busy. He always loved Memphis blues. This great song came from that connection.
I'm Saudi, I work so far from home 16 hours away.. I love playing Cash songs along the country, deserts and cities I pass He's my best friend on the road
Theres no doubt about , it was Luther Perkin's backing of Johnny Cash in the early days which gave Johnny a great start in his career........RIP Luther and you too Johnny !
si fose escrever algo eu falar deste cara e vendo este vídeo eu falaria com Deus é bom criando um grande homem com uma Voice bom desta ele era bom cantando simples como cantor bom letrista fazia umas músicas bem cabulosa que Deus atenha em um bom lugar quando partir desta terra quero ver cantando ao vivo para mim viva Jhonny cash
Love this song! I'm a high schooler and most kids don't know of the legend Johnny cash most like the songs with no meaning or emotion all that it is about is drugs, booze and hookers. Well have fun is all I tell them.
I'm so happy that he finally won the heart of the one he truly loved, June Carter! They were meant for each other, and I loved them both! My grandmother, Ella Carter was a cousin to June.
Brother John is so ingrained in what's good in the USA....feels like I can always here his voice around every corner I come to! Proof that TRUE love NEVER dies...#LongBlackCadillac
I'd never heard this one before. I saw the big town with matt dillon and heard this song. Great find. I listened to alot of JC to and this one eluded me
I play this on a Friday night on my way home in my truck along with flat top, fullsom prison, etc etc. Simplicity itself and like Elvis anyone can sing-along. Top video. Thanks. Kev
Just love this song! Always had since I was a kid . I am 57 now. If you haven’t watched it watch Nora Jones sing it at his tribute concert they did on tv years ago. She does a great version.
Luther Perkins. One of the greatest guitar solos ever recorded.

So awkward on stage, but the sound that comes from it is just unmatched. Such a distinct sound
@@alexanders1330 I learned to play to guitar because of Luther! A lot of my earlier work and even modern work mirrors his sound.
Oh Johnny, even your most somber tones have the ability to turn my mood into something much more positive.
That was cursed af
I know right?
Absolutely love this song!! I covered it I'd be honored if you check it out on my channel 😃 ruclips.net/video/C_eNzalWbAU/видео.html
you can talk? well you were pretty quiet back at rhodes

Way better than the crap they call pop music today
Agree!
I cant tell you how glad I am to see other people like me!
Thank god im not alone have you herd hurt
Epicduck3456 and im 9
We all hear you
Broadcasted in 1958 and I'm watching this in 2015... Your music is still going strong Johnny, my children will know your name and songs.
Brettski WE STILL HAVE HOPE IN MUSIC THANKS
Sleduji v roce 2023,jsou skvělí❤
Luther Perkins is a musical genius with that electric guitar, I love how mid way thru he makes you think the song is over then picks it back up again bet that fooled a lot of people back in 1958 lol
+Matthew Smithson Its amazing that just 3 guys can make such good tunes and great sounds. No need for a band.
So, this isn't a band? A trio is still a band, you know.
So shy lol. What a badass
?????? No need for a damn drummer.
Brother Mack There wasn't a need for one in 1950s folk music. They eventually did recruit a drummer when they gained popularity and had to change from a folk style to a more traditional country.

I was only 8 or 9.
I was 15 but I'm 21 right now cash is the best no one will ever come close to him
I hope you guys are still around and doing good
The Beautiful SUN sound. Thanks Mister PHILLIPS we are all together again
The greatest musican
No doubt.
Yes He is :>
Love Johnny but i think Hank Sr might have something to say about that
Johnny CashFan Doug Sahm

Thats how most bands work idk why you say that..its redundant
@@ishthefish9006 It's the Luther sound he is talking about. Dont' be so rude
At the start Luther looking in the air as if "am I going to miss a note here" ? haha.
+Kade Berrier in almost every televised show with Luther in it he does the "look of into space thing" and shows off.. it funny!
When I saw him in person in the late sixties he had that look on stage, great gimmick haha.
+Paul Henry Dallaire lol you didn't see him
If you listen to a studio outake of the recording of this Luther does indeed miss a note during the opening and you can hear him say 'I gotta hit all of the strings'
Nope never.....
This is real country & some rockabilly. The crap today makes anyone sound good. You had to have talent in these good old days
Just around the corner there's heartache
Down the street that losers use
If you can wade in through the teardrops
You'll find me at the Home of the Blues
I walk and cry while my heartbeat
Keeps time with the drag of my shoes
The sun never shines through this window of mine
It's dark at the Home of the Blues
Oh, but the place is filled with the sweetest mem'ries
Memories so sweet that I cry
Dreams that I've had left me feeling so bad
I just want to give up and lay down and die
So if you've just lost your sweetheart
And it seems there's no good way to choose
Come along with me, misery loves company
You're welcome at the Home of the Blues
Just around the corner there's heartache
Down the street that losers use
If you can wade in through the teardrops
You'll find me at the Home of the Blues
Yeah, you're gonna find me at the Home of the Blues
Thanks for the lyrics..I memorized.but still use.thanks
I love Johnny cash😘
Jjjkhuj
Cash at his best
What a tune 👊
He was so handsome
Yes, he was :)
+Josimar medina arceo True
bea1256 thank you
Sure he was!!!
I was 8 when this song came out.I still play and sing it today.what a great song.
Luther Perkins one of the best guitarists ever he makes Johnny sound like Johnny Cash.
Finally someone agrees every time I say this someone's always like will Hendrix was better yes and his style he was but Luther had his own style and Luther's style speaks to me more he's the reason why I've been playing guitar since I was 7 I'm 20 now and I even use flatwound strings and a tube amp with a 12au7 preamp tube I get a really close Luther Perkins tone
He was a star before I was born and it's proof he lives on in his music if someone as young as I can become a fan of the Man In Black. Love it :)
He was the greatest musican ever. Simply the only one. Wrote more than 5000 songs and was THE star in his time.
He king in black
+Johnny CashFan whole heartily agree with you there.
Thanks
He's my idol and reason why I thought.myself guitar
@@michaelbarker1363 * taught !!!
Johnny Cash at his very best I loved it

I saw john here in London many years ago he was a giant of a man with a heart as big as his frame & lots of talent within that frame I'm sad he is dead but happy he cant hear todays rubbish.
Possibly my favourite Cash tune, certainly my all-time favourite intro.
One of my favourite songs. Love Perkins' guitar parts!
even Johnny knew how special Luther was, can tell by the look on his face
"Home of the Blues" was a blues record shop that Cash frequented before he became too famous and busy. He always loved Memphis blues. This great song came from that connection.
I wish I could watch videos like this all day of Johnny listening to him sing is a feeling that will never be matched
I love it that the lyrics are totally over the top. ''If you can wade in through the tear drops. '' :)
For anyone interested in guitar technique this is like a master class from Johnny Cash and Luther Perkins.
2020. And We'll still be listening till the end
I'm Saudi, I work so far from home 16 hours away.. I love playing Cash songs along the country, deserts and cities I pass
He's my best friend on the road
Aint no grave can hold his body down!
Yep
Flo S
except the one he's in right now
Wieder so ein richtiger Alman komentar
This song is what you'd here if you went inside my heart
Theres no doubt about , it was Luther Perkin's backing of Johnny Cash in the early days which gave Johnny a great start in his career........RIP Luther and you too Johnny !
One of his best songs. A masterpiece!
If i ever have kids i will show the what true music is and ill put all Johnny Cash song
