Wayback Wednesday: Johnny Cash
It was on April 17, 1970 that Johnny Cash performed at the White House at the invitation of President Richard Nixon. Now that must have been some scene! He performed a song that he’d just had a huge hit with…”A Boy Named Sue”. The original, written by humor writer Shel Silverstein, was done before a much tougher audience…at San Quentin Prison!
Enjoy this classic from the great Johnny Cash on Wayback Wednesday!
