Carryin' On with Johnny Cash and June Carter is an album released by country musicians Johnny Cash and June Carter in 1967 (see 1967 in music), on Columbia Records. The album consists exclusively of duets by Cash and Carter, most famously "Jackson", though "Long Legged Guitar Pickin' Man" was also released as a single. Cash and Carter married soon after the album was released, and "Jackson" remains their most well-known collaboration, with the couple performing it at numerous venues throughout the years. The album was re-issued on March 19, 2002 (see 2002 in music) through Legacy Recordings, with two additional tracks.
