    I was supposed to see him live last year in August. He cancelled it because of health problems and it got replaced to February in this year. But this year it got replaced again, to August, due to his hip surgery. So unfortunate. A very sad loss. He wrote some of the funniest songs I ever heard in my life, and also some of the most sad I ever heard. He was an amazing songwriter. Damn Covid-19 took a great one away...

    I’m glad you found John Prine’s music. His 1971 album “John Prine” is as basic to my classic rock years memories as anything. Illegal Smile, Hello In There, Flag Decal, Paradise, Sam Stone, Angel From Montgomery,... so many great songs from the folky side.

    Thanks for doing this one Larry.. I love John Prine.. his passing was so sad.. but his music will live forever.. All his albums are great..but I suggest his first self titled album and Bruised Orange.... great video...glen

    My all-time favorite John Prine song is “Paradise” from his first, self titled album. It’s something that a lot of people will recognize once they’ve heard it, and a staple for bluegrass bands to play. It is one of the best environmental songs that I know of, and written from a perspective that most people can relate to, I think, without being preachy..

    Thank you for looking at John Prine. I have been a fan for about 40 years, and it feels as though I have lost a friend. I was lucky enought to see him a few years ago. You should check out his first album, which is fantastic. Some of his greatest songs are on the album: Sam Stone, Hello In There, Paradise, Angel From Montgomery, Illegal Smile, etc. Listen to Sam Stone next. Your reaction today was terrific, thank you.

    Laugh and cry. . . John Prine does that with much of his work. Check out Bruised Orange and The Missing Years, but really he's rarely put out a weak album. You have lots of great songs to discover. I miss John Prine already. We need his wit and wisdom more than ever. I hope he's smoking that cigarette in heaven.

    A lot of John's songs will make you both laugh and cry. Heck, he has some lines that will make you do both! The man was a genius. I found John's music about 20 years ago, but really got into it after our son was diagnosed with brain cancer. John got us through a lot of tough times in the hospital. Thanks for sharing this! I can tell you are a fan already!

    The lyric about...'smoking a cigarette nine miles long' harkens back to his smoking days, and later he would develop cancer and couldn't smoke anymore. I read somewhere in a late interview that John said he would try to stand as close to smokers to catch a whiff. He enjoyed smoking that much and then unable to, making the lyric more poignant. I've listened to John Prine since I was in high school, circa 1970-1974. I saw him at Appalachian State University in Boone NC in the fall of 1975. He came out with only himself and a guitar. The college audience expected a band and actually booed. Fortunately, the crowd quietened down and he played for approximately two hours. I don't remember if there was an encore, but if so, I imagine it would be 'Far From Me', off his first album and, hands down, my favorite song by John. He also does Steve Goodman's song 'My Old Man', which is a song that will make one both cry and laugh, all in one song - from a tribute album to Steve Goodman from the 80s.

    His first album, self-titled, from 1972, get it if u can. Every song is wonderful and special. It has Sam Stone, Hello In There, Dear Abby, Paradise. He was only I'm his 20's when he recorded it, and what insights into the human condition for a young person. He was a veteran and working for the post office in Chicago when it came out. Sam Stone and Hello In There always kick me in the gut. Sam Stone about a Vietnam vet and his drug problem after being wounded; and Hello In There about senior citizens makes me cry everytime, even though I've listened to it since 1976 when my brother played the album for me.
    Peace and be well!

    He's right, this would be a great swan song from John....until you hear his LAST SONG, "I remember everything" from his living room and on youtube.... He was the greatest....caught him in "75 and followed him through the chicago bars and all the way until his death...it's been hard to listen to his songs these days, I cry so much....I love watching the reaction shows because I see "me" back in high school...i was so lucky to hear him early and get to learn from him... Like Dylan said about Guthrie, "You could just live by his words and live a great life"....

    Please... “My Mexican Home” ... “Take the Star Out of the Window” ... ‘Sour Grapes” ... too many amazing songs to check out. ‘’ Let’s Talk Dirty in Hawaiian” . I’m so jealous you get to hear them for the 1st time... but glad I grew up w/ him from the first album and saw him dozens of times & met him several and got to hang out some. A truly amazing human being . RIP John ! 🎸😇🎧
