(2002)"Johnny Cash at Madison Square Garden" is an album by
Johnny Cash that was recorded in December 1969 atMadison Square Garden inNew York City , but which was not released until 2002.The CD was recorded just 4 months after Cash's seminal "
At San Quentin " was released, which is probably why it was not released soon after its recording. As with all Cash live shows of this period, he was backed up by theTennessee Three , which consisted of W.S. Holland,Marshall Grant and Bob Wooton. Also joining Cash on stage were theStatler Brothers ,Carl Perkins and theCarter Family . Noticeably absent from the show was Cash's wifeJune Carter Cash , who was home pregnant with their sonJohn Carter Cash .As with most Cash shows, the genres covered ran the gamut from
country music torockabilly to even some folk rock. Similarly to "Johnny Cash At San Quentin", "Johnny Cash at Madison Square Garden" includes numbers performed by Perkins, the Statlers and the Carters while Johnny was offstage. During this particular show, however, Cash introduced his father Ray and alsoShel Silverstein , who wrote Cash's biggest pop hit, "A Boy Named Sue ".Track listing
