+++ THIS VIDEO +++ is a mash-up of 3 guitar greats: Carl Perkins, Merle Travis and Jose Feliciano. Everyone knows Merle Travis as a great guitar player; heck, he even has a style of playing a guitar (Travis picking) named after him. He was also a strong songwriter and singer. Jose Feliciano and Carl Perkins were known for their singing abilities. Not many people are aware that both were also excellent guitar players and songwriters.

The clip starts with Carl Perkins playing lead, then Merle Travis and finally Jose Feliciano. Watch closely starting at about 1:15. String # 3 is broken on Jose Feliciano's guitar. I don't know, but I suspect, that is why he tuned the guitar to an alternate tuning before starting his solo.

The Johnny Cash Show was revolutionary in the seventies back when it was made. It featured entertainers from Rock, Country, Gospel and any other music genre you can name. It was also filmed in Nashville, Tennessee instead of New York, New York or Los Angeles, California as was customary with national network shows at the time.
