From April 1, 1970, in its entirety.

Video duration: 114 seconds

A tossed-off rendition of one of the 20th Century's most brilliant and underrated songwriters' loveliest compositions. By all accounts as lovely (and complicated) a man as he was talented a performer.

Video duration: 386 seconds

Weirder than weird. You know you're in uncharted waters when Bill Shatner is the voice of reason. The show only ran from 1998 to 2000, and Roseanne's comments make it sound like this clip may have come from later in its run.

Posted by: abargle

Video duration: 130 seconds

This performance, from the February 11, 1970 broadcast of his TV show is one of a number of times Cash performed this song during his show's 3-season run. Refining his composition on the fly, on network TV in prime-time, Cash demonstrated the artistic process at work with the unflinching courage and integrity for which he is so well-known. As always, Cash dedicates this song to his six daughters.
