    "Folsom Prison Blues" was originally recorded and released by Johnny Cash in 1955. Since it's release it has been re-recorded and covered by hundreds if not thousands of artists. Rolling Stone went on to name it one of the top 100 country music songs of all time. Personally, I'd love to know where he came up with the lyric "I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die..." If anyone knows, drop a comment below.

      I was just talking that out with my brother last night. Very similar themes (trains moving, sorrow/blues) and Geoffs original MOCS bridge COULD be read as a guy haunted by the murder he committed. We decided that Man of Constant Sorrow could be a prequel, where he riding the rails on the run for the murder he committed in Reno six long years ago (which is why he can't be with his true lover.) Here we see him after he got caught, having accepted his lot but missing the hobo life riding the rails.

      @@sarahereach That's actually a great way to tie up the stories! I thought of man of constant sorrow as a sequel, on my end. I thought that he escaped prison as an interlude between both songs, and that the "ghosts within his head" are his past crimes. Interesting how both stories are so similar!
      Also, with a little bit of imagination, we could even associate Sixteen tons with these two.

Please consider "Johnny Cash covers" to be my standing request. You can do as many of them as you like!
    One of my favorite things about this video was the details and nods to Johnny Cash. The book Jeff is reading, the uniforms styled off the prisoners from Cash's Folsom Prison concerts, the Prisoner Numbers! *Chef's Kiss*

    Imagination and optimism: That's what Geoff has managed to capture here, somehow, in a song about prison. It starts out sweet and plaintive, and sometimes it's kinda sad, but the whole time these guys are looking forward to the future bright-eyed and excited about what they'll do "If they freed me from this prison / if that railroad train was mine!" They've got a bright future ahead of them, and they're just champing at the bit to start living it! 💙

    Jeff brings this song back to life and I can tell you this much right now I have a feeling he's going to take this cover song by Johnny Cash the number one right where it stood back in 1968 when Johnny Cash took it all the way to number one. But he did the live version of this and he also did a studio version in 1955. And besides that, his voice sounds a lot like Josh Turner. His voice was also the same way this is what it reminds me of!

    This song in particular reminds me of an old resident I used to clean rooms for at my work. His name was Ellis. Ellis was a perfect addition to the home, the sound of his harmonica echoing throughout the halls with many Johnny Cash tunes in his arsenal. I asked him how he learned to play and he said, "Once I lost the use of my legs, I knew I still had my hands as well as my voice."
    So he learned how that way, keeping his hands aand mind busy as he continued to play his way into my heart and of those he touched. He asked me to sing with him multiple times and each time we did, was a moment that I will always remember for as long as I live.
    Just sitting down with this man, almost made me feel like I was sitting down with Johnny. The sheer joy he had playing for everybody and anybody, makes my heart smile. We lost him last year and it's people like Geoff, who pay homage to the greats that keeps the memory and the music alive.
    Bravo! Geoff. Bravo!

    I happened upon this music video during my lunchtime, you see I was in a rather dour mood after having all the drains in the deli, where I work, so when I started this video I didn’t know what I was in for. I just knew it was going to be good because, well It’s Geoff Castellucci and we all know how awesome he is at arranging his pieces. Oh I was so not wasn’t ready to listen to this work of art. This piece just seemed different from the rest he’s done in the past. So full of Easter eggs and I’ll admit it…candy too, but what had me reeling was the richness of his voice. This music video and arrangement, good sir, has been your best one yet.
    Many have compared Geoff’s voice to a fine wine, aged well and matured, but I’d have to say when I listen to Geoff’s voice I think of a sun setting….oh the layers, it’s so vivid I almost see colors. There’s a richness in his tenor range that is so full and sweet it reminds me of the vibrant colors cast upon the clouds whereas his deeper bass register is like the rich deep colors you find in between the clouds that you can’t help but be in awe of….everything works in harmony, the deepness reinforces his higher range.
    Oh how I love the intricacy of this arrangement, a new favorite of mine….now don’t mind me, but I have a sudden urge to go paint a sunset for some reason.

    One of the most well-known lyrics from Folsom Prison Blues is definitely an original - straight from the imagination of the Man in Black himself. Cash came up with the lyrics “But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die,” by sitting and thinking of what the worst reason would be to kill someone. When photographer Jim Marshall asked Cash why the song's main character was serving time in California's Folsom Prison after shooting a man in Reno, Nevada, he responded, "That's called poetic license."
