Anyone see this? Quite a good documentary I thought.

I couldn't find it on the BBC iPlayer but 'The Best of the Johnny Cash Show' is up for viewing

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/page/item/b00bv3z3.shtml

Plenty of dodgy nylon suits and wayward haircuts and some good tunes too :)

Edited to add - there's a nice little Everly Brothers segment (with their Dad!) and Chet Atkins too.

The excerpts from the JC show were excellent - Bill Monroe and George Jones were the highlights for me.

I don't suppose anyone knows the name of the song that played over the final credits of the documentary? It's eluding me at the moment.... :roll:

Was that 'Hurt'? That video and song can reduce even the hardest bloke to a crying wreck - so a soft-arse like me's got no chance...

What a bloke!

If I Give My Soul

Down a dangerous road, I have come to where I'm standing.
With a heavy heart, and my hat clutched in my hand.
Such a foolish man, God ain't known no greater sinner.
I have come in search of Jesus, hoping he will understand.

If I give my soul, will he cleanse these clothes I'm wearing?
If I give my soul, will he put new boots on my feet?
If I bow my head and beg God for his forgiveness,
Will he breathe new life within me and give me back my dignity?

I had a woman once, she was kind and she was gentle.
Had a child by me, who grew up to be a man.
I had a steady job, 'til I started into drinking,
And I started making music traveling with the Devil's band.

Oh the years flew by like a mighty rush of eagles,
My dreams and plans were all scattered in the wind.
It's a lonesome life, when you lose the ones you live for.
If I make my peace with Jesus, will they take me back again?

If I give my soul, will he stop my hands from shaking?
If I give my soul, will my son love me again?
If I give my soul, and she knows I really mean it,
If I give my soul to Jesus will she take me back again?
