the oh-no! DVD of the week: ‘Johnny Cash Christmas Special 1976-1979’

Tue, Oct 07, 2008

Now, I love Johnny Cash, but something about this terrifies me. Perhaps one Christmas special on its own would be fine, but the piling on of them just feels wrong. Did we learn nothing from the plague of 70s celebrity variety shows?

Of course I am looking at it and thinking “My dad would love this.” Nostalgia & Johnny Cash in one package? Awesome!

Yeah, my dad would probably love this, too. Family legend has it that my youngest brother’s first words were “Johnny Cash! Johnny Cash!” because that’s the only music we heard as kids.
