This performance was originally planned as a follow-up to the wildly popular 'At Folsom Prison', Johnny Cash was set to create an eponymous album at the San Quentin prison. However, he ended up giving one of his rawest and wildest performances, feeding off the audience and reflecting the dramatic shift in the band following the death of guitarist Luther Perkins. The performance is widely regarded as one of his best.
