Description
Recorded at the Town Hall Party television show in Los Angeles on August 8, 1959, this acts as a companion piece to Sundazed's other LP taken from a Town Hall Party broadcast, Live at Town Hall Party 1958 (recorded in November 1958).
This set features the legendary Johnny Cash accompanied by the Tennessee Two (Luther Perkins on guitar and Marshall Grant on bass), with the addition of drummer Mike Fury (from Bob Luman's band). The collection differs significantly from the previous year's 1958 live album, but still includes some of Cash's most beloved songs such as "Guess Things Happen That Way," "The Ways of a Woman in Love," "Big River," "I Walk the Line," "Don't Take Your Guns to Town," and "Folsom Prison Blues."
He even performs his newly released single "I Got Stripes" twice, demonstrating his enthusiasm for the song. The set list also features some lesser-known tracks like the spiritual "I Was There When It Happened" and an unexpectedly humorous cover of Elvis Presley's "Heartbreak Hotel."
