Borrowing a concept from Ray Davies, who promoted his X-Ray autobiography with a series of intimate concerts where he read excerpts, told stories about his songs, and played both familiar and obscure tunes, VH1 designed their Storytellers show as a way for celebrated singer/songwriters to work their way through their back catalogs, adding some insights along the way. Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson's VH1 Storytellers is one of the first records in the series, and it's something of a minor gem. The two songwriters share the stage, telling brief stories about their work and exchanging compliments as they play a selection of both famous and relatively obscure tunes. Neither Cash nor Nelson reveals too much, but the relaxed atmosphere, wry anecdotes and warm versions of standards makes VH1 Storytellers a welcome supplement to their catalogs. [VH1 Storytellers was also released by American in 2002.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Great fan of JC since over 30 years. Saw "Storytellers" on TV years ago. Unfortunately not recorded it. Why is there no DVD to buy?

Please release the DVD!
I'm a recent fan of Johnny Cash, and have been 'discovering' his music since his death. A friend told me of this cd and I ordered it, with some hesitation, as I'm not a huge Willie Nelson fan. Or of country music for that matter. From the first time I listened to it, this cd had me hooked. There's something special about what happens b/w the 2 singers, something rare beautiful. I'm a huge acoustic guitar fan, so hearing the songs as they were probably played for the first time is very cool. And listening to Johnny Cash, who I've come to think of my favourite songwriter and musician, joke around with his pal Willie Nelson in this intimate setting lets you inside their world somehow. For me, the cd will forever be one of my favourites. Willie sings my favourite song on the cd, Family Bible, with Johnny Cash adding beautiful harmony in the background that hits it just right for me. Thanks for giving me that feeling inside, the one you need but didn't even know you missed.

Need DVD!
I saw this great show on VH1, and wanted a copy of it real bad. Still do, but it was only released on CD. The interaction between these two giants of Country music is priceless, but some is missing on the CD version. Issue the whole show on DVD!
