Prine is (was?) a very niche artist. His country sound turned many people off before they even got through the first verse. And his subversive lyrics turned off the "country crowd" of the 60s-70s-80. Eternal thanks to Chip, my college roommate, for introducing me to the genius that is JP.
Not enough Prine, the Mark Twain of music, on Radio Paradise.
Never ceases to make me smile, with a lump in my throat. Saddens me to see comments calling it "rubbish''. Oh well - you can please some of the people part of the time in a rock and roll song. Fifty million Elvis Presley fans can't be all wrong!!
We should all start listening to John Prine more.
Couldn’t hurt...might help.
absolute trash.
I just now heard Bill passing on the incredibly sad news that John Prine died recently from the Covid scourge.
Damn. damn damn damn.
One of the brightest lights of my generation has gone out.
I am so grateful, through tears, for this man's gentle touch upon my soul over many of the years of my life.
RIP, brother.

I cry every other day since we lost John Pine, it hit me so hard and I am crying right now as this plays
Thanks for playing this.
A true American treasure.
I played this album to death when it was first released.
I love this song. It reminds of the "Back to the Land" movement during that period.

"Turn off the computer" nowadays I suppose.
The first time that I ever hit the PSD button and this came up. My happiness factor just increased by about 900%
Thank you John Prine!
Prine is fine almost anytime
An Appalachian/Hairy Krishna tune.
