It was January 1968, a year that would be saturated in violence and \par historical change. Tucked away in a gray prison cafeteria in Northern \par California, isolated from the tumult outside, hard men doing hard time \par witnessed the making of a legendary album that would catapult a country \par singer to international stardom. Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison \par remains one of the greatest live albums ever made, and the man himself \par one of America\rquote s greatest troubadours and advocates for prison reform. \par Forty years later, the album still resonates today with a rawness and \par authenticity that few recordings have ever achieved.
