  • The influence of John Prine, who died last week from complications related to COVID-19, is clear in the latest installment of our In My Room series. We asked some of our favorite artists (and some of Prine’s) to play one of his classics. They didn’t disappoint. Fellow Chicagoan Jeff Tweedy plays “Donald and Lydia,” the 1971 ballad Prine wrote on his mail route, about two people that “made love from 10 miles away.” Ashley McBryde performs a mini set that includes a mournful take on “That’s the Way the World Goes Round” and a deeply moving “Mexican Home,” the song where Prine addressed the death of his father. (McBryde becomes emotional at one point, and needs to stop herself). Todd Snider plays the underrated “It’s a Big Old Goofy World.” Jim James puts his own stamp on the songs “Speed of the Sound of Loneliness,” “Spanish Pipedream,” and “Paradise.” Margo Price and Jeremy Ivey play a gospel version of “All the Best” in their family home.

    John Prine's in his heaven, drinking cocktails and smoking his 9-mile cigarette. I'm ever so grateful for the music he left us to enjoy. Cheers to his old soul, he'll never truly leave us.

    Still missing the wonderful John Prine. He just took up such a big spot in my world...it surprises me how vast it is and how empty it now seems. These songs fill it some. Thanks.

    "The air is as still as the throttle of a funeral train"
    That's how you write great songs.
    Only an unassuming genius like John Prine could write lines like this.
    Thanks John for making my life richer with your words and music.

      I enjoyed all of them but you’re right, Ashley just killed all three of hers. Love her “World Goes Round” rendition. Fitting tributes from artists that clearly loved JP.
      RIP Handsome Johnny.

    I see I am not the only one taken by Ashley’s interpretations here. When I saw this when it went up I immediately became an Ashley fan and love here work. Her voice cuts glass and lights gasoline on fire, with a feather.

    Living it up time for living the down time
    Jesus crisis knows what all the models show our Doom and gloom
    Singing In The Everlasting Arms we'll survive
    This song's for you John Prine
    Fuels in the reefer keepn' folks who died from this fever nice and cool Wall Street Blue
    This big fat ones for you John Prine
    Hear the Herd Immunity four horesman apocalipitly in view Praying way overdue it's true
    Now we're all saying prayers for you John Prine
    Living it up time for living the down time
    Jesus crisis knows what all the models show our Doom and gloom
    Alone in my room I'm just fine but you passed away John Prine
    Apologies for a social distance Nation
    Songwriting is a nomadic occupation
    Oh Boy how you could ryhme on a dime
    This poem is just for you John Prine
    Drinking washed my hands of sorrow
    Alcohol sanitizes tommorow and cold beer is mighty fine
    This brew's for you John Prine
    Living it up time for living the down time
    Jesus crisis knows what all the models show we're all Doomed too
    Quarantined in our homes we share a good bye cry
    These tears are just for you John Prine

    Jeffrey foulcault does better versions of every John Prine song covered here and the fact he dont get asked to do a version of song is disappointing. Shoot the moon - the songs of John Prine. Amazing album. Available now on iTunes. Also has great artwork. Go buy it and then send me a wee message to say thanks.
