Johnny Cash played "every prison song he knew" when he performed live at Folsom Prison in 1968. Songs like "I Got Stripes," "25 Minutes To Go" and the specially-written "Folsom Prison Blues" are well-known favorites. But have you heard him play "I'm Here To Get My Baby Out of Jail" from the same concert? How about "This Ole House" or "June's Poems"? These are 3 of the 7 songs that weren't included on previous releases of Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison. But a brand new 3... MORE

This follows from Annies post. What brings two people together in an incident such as THIS ? .... what forces converge?... is there meaning in it, or is it a random and unfortunate encounter? How will it affect the people around them? Like ripples from a stone thrown into a pond ... a pond we're all swimming in together. All affecting each other in ways we may or may not comprehend. I won't subject you to Sting... but I have to admit [hangs his head] I like the origi... MORE

Back in November 2005, i did a post on a regular blog entitled They Are Killing My Brothers AgainToday i saw this story on line. It made me cranky.
They called it the "Thousand-yard Stare"Veterans' Affairs doctor tells staff to refrain from PTSD diagnoses
The VA has repudiated the memo, but outraged veterans see a reluctance from the government to support their disability.
From the Washington Post

I got a promo of the Johnny Cash Remixed project. I must admit I was skeptical. However, it is really cool. The Man in Black didn't believe in labels and without fear crossed genres and broke down barriers. Hell, he spent then end of his career working with Rick Rubin. So I think he would approve. Besides his son is an executive producer.
Check out this MP3 of Big River (Count Da Money Remix)
Also watch the making of remixed:

...over 2500 notifications that I have not had time to read over the past 3 months. Damn it feels bad. On one hand there is only so much a person can do and so much music that you can really digest, but I am sure that I missed some fantastic insights. Keep them coming MOG, I will still be around.

...when i did a post called The Thousand-Yard Stare, which stirred up some controversy. However, i think that (setting aside the controversy i touched on in that post) even the MOGger i was arguing with will agree that Viet Nam vets (real combat men, not REMFs like me) got a pretty shabby deal Back In The Day. There's a reason that "Don't mean nothin'" was a Viet Nam mantra... Johnny Cash spent quite a while in Viet Nam a full year, i think - on his own dime, gettin... MORE

...i believe.
I don't believe in God or the Devil.
I don't believe in Heaven or Hell.
I believe that when you die, that's it.But for as long as it takes Johnny Cash to sing Tom Waits' Down There by the Train, i believe. And a tear runs down my cheek.

Further On Up The Road"- Bruce Springsteen's tune "I'll meet farther on up on the road- Got on my dead man's suit and a song to sing. Where the road is dark, one sunny morning and we'll rise I know and we will meet further on up the road"

Who doesn't love this song.American III, American Recordings, and Unchained arrived recently. Nights, mornings I've lain in bed listening. American Recordings and Unchained have yet to have the hearings they deserve. After washing dishes to the accompaniment of American III, I sat in my chair and listened again. This time unfolding the oversized liner notes. Reading these casual reminiscences was a loosening. Turning to the notes for Unchained was my undoing. Veggie burger... MORE

I began this album as the last one, in the cabin, in the middle of a 50-acre compound surrounded by cedar trees, deer, goats, and peacocks. The window unit air conditioner doesn't work anymore. We had buffalo, and every time it came on, they rammed it with their horns. Sometimes we have to stop tape for a thunderstorm. We play back the songs and the mockingbirds sing along with it.
