Johnny Cash, Folsom Prison 1968


Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison on January 13, 1968. "The granite walls in Folsom are about eight feet thick, and we had just gotten off the bus and gone through one giant gate into a holding area. Then we went through a second gate, and, when it clanked shut, John said, 'Jim, there's a feeling of permanence in that sound.' After that, I started wondering when we were going to get out of there." - Jim Marshall © Jim Marshall Photography LLC
