Folsom Prison Blues is one of Johnny Cash's best known songs, and is ideal for the fiddle. In this lesson I look at the intro, the vocal line, ideas for fills, shuffles and chops, the original guitar solo, and a bluegrass style fiddle solo. I suggest some train effects, and the option of pairing it with the Orange Blossom Special. A free pdf of the sheet music for this lesson is available to subscribers (see below). There are plenty more free video lessons on country songs and fiddle techniques elsewhere on The Fiddle Channel.

I've always considered this a guitar spotlight tune. Now I'm thinking differently and how much i can add! Thanks for the guitar break notation. People expect to hear that. I may hit you up for the pdf. Funny it's always in E!

Its an interesting bit of music history but Johnny didn't actually write the "body" of the piece. He borrowed heavily from Gordon Jenkins's 1953 Seven Dreams concept album, specifically the song "Crescent City Blues" including the opening line, "I hear the train a coming.". However, the line, "I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die" was Cash's contribution. If you do a search for that on You Tube, you can hear how closely the two songs are. Jenkins eventually won a lawsuit against Cash for 75K.
