Comment:
Here's my contribution to the 2:42 meme.Unlike tjarrett, I didn't follow the 12-song rule: instead I tried to get enough tunes together to make up a decent-length mix.
Note: I'm including the version of "Folsom Prison Blues" from the concert album recorded at Folsom Prison and San Quentin. Even with the prisoners cheering after he says "I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die," it comes in 10 seconds shorter than the studio version. What does this tell us about the value of time in prison?
Feedback:
lots of perfect songs here.
