How Third Man Records Unearthed a Great Lost Johnny Cash Live Album

“There was no song everyone in the audience didn’t know,” says Blackwell. “It’s like, ‘Wow, shit, man. You almost take it for granted. It’s miraculous.”

Blackwell says Sony, which releases Jack White’s solo albums, approached Third Man about the release. “They were saying, ‘Hey, do you guys ever consider doing outside artists for the Vault?'” say Blackwell. “And it was exactly what we were looking for. It doesn’t get any more marquee than Johnny Cash, and this is something that was unheard.”

The early Seventies were a transformative time for Cash. He’d ended the previous decade as a huge star, with nine hit albums, including, plus a weekly TV show, but things were about to change. “The Seventies saw the implosion of my recording career,” he wrote in his autobiography. While he continued to sell out shows, sales lagged as he turned his attention to religious music. Cash spent much of his time in this era on, an ambitious double album and film.

The album will be released on white vinyl along with a DVD of never-seen backstage footage. The package will also include a seven-inch single, featuring tracks that came out of John Carter Cash’s “Forever Words” project, where he recruited artists to put music to the poetry Cash left behind. Ruston Kelly will interpret Cash’s “Dark and Bloody Ground”; the other side will feature a mystery artist.

Two of the greatest!
