Johnny Cash - 1972-02-26 - Amsterdam (FM)

In honor of what would have been Johnny Cash’s 80th birthday, and in keeping with our folk rock/country western theme for the month of February, today we post a show from 40 years ago, on February 28, 1972, featuring the Man in Black live in Amsterdam! This FM recording captures Cash on his 40th birthday, playing some of the biggest hits of his career, including I Walk The Line, A Boy Named Sue, Jackson, Sunday Morning Coming Down, and daddy Sang Bass, though Ring Of Fire is conspicuous by its absence. What I can’t figure out, however, is why this legendary singer who was born in the Arkansas and helped put Memphis Tennessee on the map was doing in The Netherlands on his 40th birthday! Whatever the reason, download this one and remember a man who is one of the few performers to be elected to both the Country Music Hall of Fame (in 1980), and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (in 1992).
