Johnny Cash The Man His World His Music DVD

Johnny Cash needs little introduction. He was one of the true legends of Country Music from his days in the mid-50s when he was recording for Memphis Sun Records through his classic 60s recordings for Columbia Records onto more recent achievements as "The Man In Black" with Def American Records. In "Johnny Cash! The Man His World His Music" film-maker Bob Elfstrom documented several months in Cash s life alongside guitarist Carl Perkins (legendary rock star of the fifties) bass player Marshall Grant drummer W.S. Holland and the Carter Sisters June Helen and Anita. Children and family members are seen from time to time but this is essentially Johnny Cash taking his show on the road. A unique portrait of an artist who by the time this documentary was first screened in 1970 arguably was as famous and as popular as any singer in America.The film was shot between August 1968 and early 1969 and cuts and pastes live clips with fascinating homebackstage and behind-the-scenes footage to offer an insider s glimpse of a man on top of his game having just been crowned at the Country Music Awards for his latest album "Live At San Quentin."Almost all of the major participants are now gone. Carl Perkins died in January 1998. Helen Carter died in June that year. Anita Carter died in July 1999. Johnny Cash and June Carter lived 34 years after this documentary was completed. The contrast between Johnny Cash seen here and the Johnny Cash of late years ravaged by Parkinson s disease diabetes glaucoma and respiratory problems shows what terrible price he paid for the life he had chosen. After June Carter died on May 15 2003 John did not last long and the end came for him on September 12 2003. He had been to the brink so often but lacked the strength for one more fight.System Requirements:Running Time: 80 minutesFormat: DVD AUDIO Genre: MUSIC DVD/CONCERTS Rating: NR UPC: 060768833692 Manufacturer No: 88336-9
