Johnny And June Carter Cash Perform Jackson Live In San Quentin (1969)

Back on this day in 1967, Johnny and June recorded Jackson at Nashville's Columbia Recording Studios. In 1968, they won a Grammy award for their recording of the song. Even though it was a huge hit for them, it didn't quite make it to the top of the country charts, stalling at number two. Here they are performing the song live at San Quentin State Prison on February 24, 1969. Enjoy!

P.S. As a comparison, below Johnny and June is Joaquin and Reese's version from the 2005 Walk The Line movie in which they performed the song.
