Johnny Cash At Town Hall Party 1958-1959 Reviews:
Great piece of Johnny Cash history
2008-12-26 - This is a must for the true Cash fan, I grew up on Johnny Cash listening with my dad growing up.Finding this dvd was like finding old film that you put away and forgot to ever get developed. I was blown away with it,sound of course not 2008 surround sound but the true grit honkytonk sound of 1958. Totally loved it, gonna get a copy for my Dad's birthday.

Oldie but a goody
2008-07-28 - Basically this is a DVD of Johnny playing his early music at the Town Hall Party, no gimmicks or anyone else performing. The sound and picture quality is not that great but the rawness and age of the film are wonderful. Johnny performs almost the same songs both years on this DVD but you see him age and get better. If you are a true fan, you would like this in your collection. If you buy this DVD you do not need 'Music Masters Johnny Cash' "The Man in Black" which is too similar. He does do his Elvis impersonation in both, which is entertaining, just to see him comb his hair.

A geat treasure!
2008-03-15 - It was very cool to see Johnny at this young age as his career was skyrocketing. What a great piece of history! Don't expect great video or quality as this video was made in 1958-59 from a B & W TV show, many years before many of his young fans (me included) were born. I loved it!

A great gift to all who loved the man
2007-01-21 - To really get an artist's personality, sometimes you need to see them live. I don't know if that's true with Johnny but I know it sure doesn't hurt. This is a very young Johnny with Luther and Marshal. Three friends, lots of fans, and a set of songs that you'll probably recognize from his few albums that were out at that time. Yes, there are several repeat performances but nothing really overshadows the fact that you get to see this piece of music history. It doesn't take any of the shine off it is what I'm saying. Complete with some teasing onstage banter and a one or two minute bout of outright goofyness as Johnny imitates an anonymous singer...if you can't figure out that it's Elvis he's impersonating...than you don't know Elvis and you were born in a cave. This is not a rock and roll show by any means. It's perfect and original country concert and what a collectors item. A real treasure. Glad I got a hold of a copy. No problems with audio or visual quality. For the time period, having to turn the volume up a little extra is not an issue [for me atleast]. Enjoy.

A MUST OWN for Johnny Cash Fans
2006-08-21 - I'm probably one of the youngest Johnny Cash fans I know....I'm only 31. I've read several books of his, and seen many of his performances. The sound and video quality on this dvd are less than perfect, but it is VINTAGE Johnny Cash and the Tennessee Two from the early years. BEST I've seen....really puts accross the style and demeanor that got them to the top.

Even with the less than perfect video and audio (restored pretty good though considering the age of the footage), ANY Johnny Cash fan will rock to the tunes....and it almost feels as if you're there back in the 50's! Highly reccommended!
