JOHNNY CASH At The Carousel Ballroom 2LP

Description: JOHNNY CASH At The Carousel Ballroom hails from 2021 and is a SEALED 2LP. Bear's Sonic Journals: At the Carousel Ballroom, 4/24/1968 is an historic and never-heard live Johnny Cash concert recorded in San Francisco by innovative sound wizard Owsley Stanley. Captured in the heart of Haight-Ashbury, just days before the release of Cash's iconic At Folsom Prison album (and over six months before the arrival of the equally revered At San Quentin), At The Carousel Ballroom serves as a third essential – and wholly unique – live document from the era, a moment of cultural collision, with Cash leaning into songs about society's outcasts, while playing a venue operated by The Jefferson Airplane and Grateful Dead.At The Carousel Ballroom captures Cash at the height of his charismatic powers, in playful and powerful dialogue with his then-new bride June Carter, and backed by his legendary band The Tennessee Three: guitarist Luther Perkins, bassist Marshall Grant and drummer W.S. Holland. His set list that evening diverged from other concerts of the time, as Cash chose to cover two Bob Dylan compositions ("Don't Think Twice It's Alright," and his earliest known recording of "One Too Many Mornings") and perform songs of the overlooked and underserved such as "The Ballad of Ira Hayes."Recorded by Stanley in a verité style, the album startles with its clarity and dimension. Many of the sound reproduction techniques that Stanley pioneered while serving as the in-house engineer at the Carousel are accepted sonic gospel today. When he listened back to the Cash concert, he knew he had captured something special, immediately earmarking it for preservation. This release marks the latest entry in the Owsley Stanley Foundation's Bear's Sonic Journals series, which has previously included Stanley's live recordings of The Allman Brothers Band, Tim Buckley, Doc & Merle Watson and many more.The live album, presented here as a colored vinyl 2LP-set, features new essays by Johnny and June Carter Cash's son John Carter Cash, Owsley Stanley's son Starfinder Stanley, The Grateful Dead's Bob Weir, and Widespread Panic's Dave Schools, as well as new art by Susan Archie, and a reproduction of the original Carousel Ballroom concert poster by Steve Catron. "When you hear this, you feel like you are on the stage with the band," says Starfinder. John Carter Cash agrees, describing At The Carousel Ballroom as "what I believe to be one of the most intimate and connected shows I have ever heard."
