This special aired on TNT in 1999, and I will NEVER forget it because Johnny performing at this show was a suprise. He had been hospitalized just prior to this and rumors were flying that he was on his death bed. I know he was very ill, but he lived another 4 years after this! I was a little suprised at his appearance here because I had seen him in concert just 2 years before and he looked vibrant and healthy. There will NEVER be another Johnny Cash. I miss him terribly.
@1:18 - 1:32 ,it is so great to see here that he got reconciled with Marshall after all those years. Love this scene. RIP Marshall Grant and John R CASH. /CD
This guy was so amazing, so truly great. Can't listen to his songs without getting overwhelmed by all kind of deep feelings. His voice, the lyrics, the music. He was so big, so big.
those eyes have seen things we will never know. he lived a life of hardships, but always found a way to happiness. so dont feel sad, be honored that we could enjoy the life of a great man through songs he loves to sing.
It is touching and courageous that Johnny performed that night. It was said that Johnny spent the entire tribute concert downstairs in his dressing room that night and that it was a true toss up about whether he would get on stage. He had not performed in more than a year due to his autonomic neuropathy. It was similar to Sammy Davis. Jr performing with Gregory Hines at his 60 anniversary special in 1990. Davis was in the final stages of his cancer and had just gone through his chemo that same day. His wife gave him his tap shoes though she said it would be ok if he was not strong enough. We all know how that ended. RIP both giants of music.
WS Holland and Bob Wootton are still living and playing all over the world... I toured with The Tennessee Three for 2 years after WS Holland left the group. I'm friends with WS and he is still playing his tail off.... Bob Wootton tours all over the world with The Tennessee Three... WS Holland's show is The Ultimate Johnny Cash Tribute.
During this show, and just before he went on stage, Johnny was very weak and his friends wondered if he could go to sing. Johnny felt very bad at this time but he decided to go on stage and sing . Aand at the very moment he went on stage he felt better and full of energy and can sing as never. You can hear it in his voice , it sounds like in his best moment! He was such a great artist and singer!
yes he had not sure if it was diagnosed at this time though.. he had a lot of problems but june was still alive at this time but as you can see his drug addiction from earlier in his life really caught up with him..he aged very quick..
now don't be narrow-minded, there is good music out there, just because it's not to your liking doesn't mean it's trash. Otherwise you are too one dimensional..
Modern "Country Music" isn't the same as it used to be. For some odd reason Country Music nowadays has a little bit of rap and pop in it. That's horrible. Main stream music is horrible. I don't call that good music. But I guess we all have our likes and opinions. Call me one-dimensional if you like.
nothing against Johnny cash, I think he's a fine singer, but most of the songs were either written by someone else or sung by someone else. It's a question on how it appealed to his audience otherwise all karaoke singers would be big stars like he was.
***** Actually that's not true. He wrote about 500 songs himself. "Folsom Prison Blues" and "I Walk The Line" are only two of them. For example Elvis has never written one single song on his own...
The man on the bass is the one, and only Marshall Grant. He started with Johnny Cash in 1955 and was fired from his band in 1980, but Johnny asked him to come back for this one last show.
Yes, he had been suffering from diabetes for quite some time. It caused his neuropathy and many other symptoms. Really sad. I love that man. So much courage.
I tell u what happen this they call music i call noise has took country identity they need to let country have back there idenity they need to find there ow
The guy who's playing on Johnny's right side is his son! Love it.
Modern artists have not talent. Johnny Cash kicks the piss out of every artist of today!

He really did look bad there at the end. Be fore he pass away
And I loved his music 🎶
There will never be another Man In Black! Johnny Cash you were my #1 Hero!
Such a legend. His voice only got better with time
10 years after his passing he's STILL cooler than anyone else with a pulse...
Fuck yeah
Amen on every word you said!
@1:18 - 1:32 ,it is so great to see here that he got reconciled with Marshall after all those years. Love this scene. RIP Marshall Grant and John R CASH. /CD
so good to see him with W.S.& Marshall.
Maggie Parrish and Bob Wooton
Johnny Cash, the best ever! The world is definitely a better place because he was in it.
This made me cry watching him the one and only MAN IN BLACK
+Diego Fernandez not even close guy. not one bit.idiot
+Dean Young thats right so much better then jesus
No one is better than Jesus, except for maybe his father, our Heavenly Father.
If you mean that he was a Christian, than yes, but was John perfect? No he was not.
+CashPresley32 fuk off idiot
This guy was so amazing, so truly great. Can't listen to his songs without getting overwhelmed by all kind of deep feelings. His voice, the lyrics, the music. He was so big, so big.

Beats the hell out of the trash they call country music now. Johnny Cash is the only country music artist I like.
now don't be narrow-minded, there is good music out there, just because it's not to your liking doesn't mean it's trash. Otherwise you are too one dimensional..

I don't call that good music. But I guess we all have our likes and opinions. Call me one-dimensional if you like.
Furthermore, originality is a rarity these days. Hardly anything is original anymore.

Still good as always no one will ever beat the man in black
So glad I got to meet you my hero as in profile pic
