The red Esquire Luther Perkins is playing was purchased O.K. Houck Piano Company in Memphis. Luther fell behind on the payments and had to return the instrument. However, an old friend of his who used to work with him on the railroad happened to work at O.K. Houck. His name was Sid Lapworth. Sid agreed to let Luther to "borrow" the returned instrument for one recording session. Luther returned the guitar bright and early the next morning after using it to record, "I Walk the Line".
Ima be 18 in a couple of days (in 2024) and I will always love old Johnny my dad made me fall in That at a very Young age sorry if im bad at writing im Franch 😝🤙
Excellent film clip of Johnny! "So Doggone Lonesome" was the "B" side of the original SUN release of Folsom Prison Blues... Pick it, Luther! And playing for Lil Jimmy Dickens, Hank Snow, and Flatt and Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys to boot! Classic Country Royalty!
Why don't the music industry take all their potential talent and introduce them to a true professional!!!. He had personal problems , but when the light went red, it was all REAL!!!!!
Man I wish this attire was still in style.. That suit the gentleman on the far right standing up is wearing reminds me of the suits my uncles wore down in Mexico for special events.
Many great pickers in the room here obviously, listening to the new phenom on the red Fender smoking them strings. R. I. P. JCash Luther Perkins 🎸 Marshall Grant
Great song and playing by Johnny, Luther, and Marshall, but the highlight for me is Paul Warren (fiddler with Flatt and Scruggs) dropping his cards at 0:52 It's funny seeing these two great bands together. It would've been great to hear them perform together.
I've always preferred his live performances over studio versions,tempo is faster, vocals stronger,cause on stage they where usually high.Check out bass player chewing the shit outta that Gum lol! Good stuff!
He wasn’t on drugs at all here, he got a certain look to his eyes, this isn’t it, he wasn’t on drugs in 55’ he tried in 56’ got worse in 58’ and got hooked and hit hard in 59’
Great video and performance by JC, Luther and Marshall. But frankly, it would have been even better without the distraction of Flatt and Scruggs taking up most of the foreground in the video. I like Flatt and Scruggs music but don't care much to see them as a distraction playing cards. That said, it is what it s, and It's still a great video!
I wonder if Johnny knew how big he was going to be. My favorite of all time
Certainly he didn't know that at this time. /CD
He WAS the the Greatest!

Wow. Great story!
thank you for sharing this..
Im only 25 and Johnny was a huge inspiration to me playing the guitar, crazy this was almost 100 years ago. Long Live Johnny Cash forever.
now this is how music should be
As a young man, I admittedly get a lot of my masculinity from watching and listening to Johnny Cash. Great man.
I am 16, and on the Same path You went 👍
@@STILLEBEN10 Good luck young man, God be with you
@@JosephusAurelius thanks a lot Buddy, He is With me all the Time👋

Seeing Marshall so excited on double bass fills me with happiness!
I'm sure the amphetamines help.
@@capefearcapt4679actually marshall never did any. he was clean. it was just johnny and luther

Johnny sang with soul and amazing rhythm.
Ahhhh he was so young
Flatt and Scrugs sitting in front of Johnny
Awesome video. Johnny Cash, Luther Perkins, Earl Scruggs, Lester Flatt and others.
Not many people catch that Millicent Robert Bobert is loving this in the background.
Marty Stuart's first 2 Bosses-Lester Flatt and Johnny Cash.

I love Johnny cash💖💖💖💖
My god the cast here.... flatt and Scruggs and such....!
The film is in great shape! You can see the strings on his guitar!!! Haha im glad to see they actually had strings back then
It's weird how generations that came a couple before you always look old at any age.
Matt M Everyone drank & smoked back then.
Well said! Hank Williams died at 29, I’m 47 and he will always be older than me
marshal grant looks so fun and happy playing that bass
Johnny guitar 🎸 has a sound on its own 👍
This is a very good video and song. The real music !!

Marshall was never into drugs man, johnny however
Joel French Luther was too, not as bad but still
He wasn’t on drugs at all here, he got a certain look to his eyes, this isn’t it, he wasn’t on drugs in 55’ he tried in 56’ got worse in 58’ and got hooked and hit hard in 59’
Real poker gamblers would never tolerate the distraction of music.

Is that Earl Scruggs and Lester Flatt

The guy at the beginning seems jealous
They're just kidding around. Most Country & Western singers were like a family and were very supportive of each other.
