Monday Morning Video: Ramblin’ Jack Elliott on the Johnny Cash Show

Monday, July 29, 2013 By Mayer Danzig

Last week’s Ramblin’ Jack Elliott video was so much fun that we’re going to bring him back again this week. This time it is a 1969 performance of “If I Was a Carpenter” from the Johnny Cash Show. You gotta love Johnny’s intro, “He’s got a song and friend for every mile behind him.”
