Johnny Cash & Bobby Bare - I Still Miss Someone; Two Friends at a guitar pull

I grew up on Bobby Bare's music as I did Cash's and here Bobby speaks of his friend Johnny:



"I'm very excited to be working with Reba and Loretta, but also because of John, who was a dear friend of mine," reflected Bare. "He lived right down the lake from me. He and June were godparents to my youngest daughter. John and I had been friends starting in 1957. He lived in California at the same time I did, so I used to go out to his house for a goat roast or something crazy like that. A bunch of us went out there, me, Patsy Cline, the Carter Family. We'd all have a guitar pull. Those things went on in those days. He was a hell of a man."

While watching this video, I sighed a little. With Johnny playing the alternating bass and strum on the guitar I was reminded of my early guitar lessons. And, his guitar sounded so "in tune". Enjoy watching as these two do as Bobby calls "a guitar pull".

Daddy Sang Bass performed by Paul McCann and 'Get Rhythm

This site is dedicated to Johnny and all those who keep his music alive. One such person I'd like to introduce to you if you've not heard of him and the band "Get Rhythm" is Paul McCann. Listening to the band in this video, I think the music is very "tight", well done and has the Johnny Cash sound for the most part. 








Enjoy the video and read an article here with more details about this man in black.

Johnny Cash - I've Been Everywhere Song and Video

Recently I talked here of a play performance called Cash; Ring of Fire. The performers all did a good job and when it came to singing "I've Been Everywhere", they all took a verse; very wise. These are tough lyrics to remember and you have to get them all in there! Here's a video with Johnny singing them all and it shows many of the people in his life throughout his life. Enjoy:
