Today The Johnny Cash Christmas Special from 1976 and ‘77 hit stores on DVD via Shout! Factory, marking the first time in thirty years the two shows will be readily available. The ‘77 program, which was taped at Nashville’s famed Grand Ole Opry, features Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis and Roy Orbison — one of whom didn’t get the memo about the white suit — joining Cash for “This Train Is Bound for Glory” as part of a tribute to Elvis Presley.

Wow, great lineup. And back in the day Christmas wasn’t a bad word to say on TV. Cool stuff.

Aside for the bad combovers, this is very cool! Happy Holidays Ham On Rye!

Great clip, but it’s very sad when you realize that everyone but Jerry Lee Lewis has boarded that train.
