Title: Extremely disappointing
Product review: Iconic cover is about the best thing about this album. San Quentin is great, but the prisoners call for an encore and Johnny obliges, but why put it on the album? Has this ever happened before or since? I kept thinking 'maybe a riot will break out or someone will get shivved mid-song' but no, it is virtually the same. If I were locked up in San Quentin for twenty to life then I would happily sit through it forty times, but on my record player if and when I want an encore I can just lift the tonearm back a quarter inch. The version of Folsom Prison Blues is basically just Johnny thanking everyone then he sings the chorus once then leaves the stage. Ripped off - one of my favourites. Instead of San Quentin twice, Folsom once would have been great.Ok rereading that now, "extremely disappointing" is too harsh, the versions of "Walk the Line" and "Boy Named Sue" and "San Quentin" Version No. 1 are must haves. "Annoying" is more accurate.
