"A Boy Named Sue" is a song written by #ShelSilverstein and made famous by #JohnnyCash. Cash recorded the song live in concert on February 24, 1969, at California's #SanQuentinStatePrison for his #AtSanQuentin album. Cash also performed the song (with comical variations on #theOriginal performance) in December 1969 at #Madison Square Garden. The live San Quentin version of the song became Cash's biggest hit on the #Billboard Hot 100 chart.

In February 1969, #JohnnyCash had a party at his house (that) turned into a guitar pull, with some of Johnny's friends trying out their latest songs. " #BobDylan sang 'Lay Lady Lay,'" recalled Cash. " #KrisKristofferson sang 'Me and Bobby McGee.' #JoniMitchell sang 'Both Sides Now.' #GrahamNash sang 'Marrakesh Express.' And #ShelSilverstein sang 'A Boy Named Sue.'"
