About the image

Johnny Cash shakes hands with Glen Sherley, the inmate who wrote and recorded the song "Greystone Chapel" that Cash performed during his famous Folsom Prison concert. The previous evening a copy of Sherley's recording made its way into the hands of the country legend by way of a Folsom minister. As soon as Johnny Cash heard it he stayed up all night, learning the song.
