Captured in the heart of Haight-Ashbury, just days before the release of Cash’s iconic At Folsom Prison album (and over six months before the arrival of the equally revered At San Quentin), At The Carousel Ballroom serves as a third essential – and wholly unique – live document from the era, a moment of cultural collision, with Cash leaning into songs about society’s outcasts, while playing a venue operated by The Jefferson Airplane and Grateful Dead.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe live album features new essays by Johnny and June Carter Cash’s son John Carter Cash, Owsley Stanley’s son Starfinder Stanley, The Grateful Dead’s Bob Weir, and Widespread Panic’s Dave Schools, as well as new art by Susan Archie, and a reproduction of the original Carousel Ballroom concert poster by Steve Catron.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt The Carousel Ballroom captures Cash at the height of his charismatic powers, in playful and powerful dialogue with his then-new bride June Carter, and backed by his legendary band The Tennessee Three: guitarist Luther Perkins, bassist Marshall Grant and drummer W.S. Holland. His set list that evening diverged from other concerts of the time, as Cash chose to cover two Bob Dylan compositions (“Don’t Think Twice It’s Alright,” and his earliest known recording of “One Too Many Mornings”) and perform songs of the overlooked and underserved such as “The Ballad of Ira Hayes.”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRecorded by Stanley in a verité style, the album startles with its clarity and dimension. Many of the sound reproduction techniques that Stanley pioneered while serving as the in-house engineer at the Carousel are accepted sonic gospel today. When he listened back to the Cash concert, he knew he had captured something special, immediately earmarking it for preservation. This release marks the latest entry in the Owsley Stanley Foundation’s ‘Bear’s Sonic Journals’ series, which has previously included Stanley’s live recordings of The Allman Brothers Band, Tim Buckley, Doc and Merle Watson and many more.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease date: 29th October, 2021\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCocaine Blues\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLong Black Veil\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOrange Blossom Special\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGoing to Memphis\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Ballad of Ira Hayes\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRock Island Line\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGuess Things Happen That Way\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOne Too Many Mornings\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDon’t Think Twice, It’s All Right\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGive My Love to Rose\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGreen, Green Grass of Home\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOld Apache Squaw\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLorena\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eForty Shades of Green\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBad News\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJackson\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTall Lover Man\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJune’s Song Introduction\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWildwood Flower\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFoggy Mountain Top\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis Land Is Your Land\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWabash Cannonball\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWorried Man Blues\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLong Legged Guitar Pickin’ Man\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRing of Fire\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBig River\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDon’t Take Your Guns to Town\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI Walk the Line\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Johnny Cash","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":52085943173487,"sku":"OSF-V8","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/7089\/3423\/files\/JOHNNY-CASH-Bears-Sonic-Journals_-Johnny-Cash-At-The-Carousel-Ballroom-April-24-1968-Stereo-2LP.jpg?v=1764734706","url":"https:\/\/www.thevinylstore.com.au\/products\/johnny-cash-bears-sonic-journals-johnny-cash-at-the-carousel-ballroom-april-24-1968-stereo-2lp","provider":"The Vinyl Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
