A Concert: Behind Prison Walls is the fifty-fourth overall album and a live album recorded by Johnny Cash in the Tennessee Prison 1974. The album features Cash with his backing band the Tennessee Three. It also features a total of four performances by Linda Ronstadt, Roy Clark and Foster Brooks. The album was not released until 2003. A DVD companion of this show was also released. A Concert: Behind Prison Walls is the fourth and final album of Cash's conceptual series of live albums recorded before an audience of prison inmates. The other three are, chronologically, At Folsom Prison (1968), At San Quentin (1969) and På Österåker (1973).

The original release of the show was called Flowers Out of Place and featured Glen Sherley. Sherley's material has been cut from recent releases of the show.
