Uberqueenbee “Please don’t bury me” & “Sam Stone” were the only songs I had heard of by Prine. Then my second husband Louie introduced me to the vast collection of John Prine & Prine’s friend (who sadly died too young years ago now) Steve Goodman. My Louie died 2013 also too young- of the many things we shared or I learned from him Music has been the best gift. I can sing along to most of John Prine’s songs as they were regularly played. Prayers for John & his wife & family. Thanks for the happy times in my life, too!

John Prine has been the best songwriter you never heard of since the late 1960s. I've been a fan since 1976. He's one of those talents who has just kept pumping out the gems decade after decade, but rarely got mainstream play until fairly recently. His popularity has soared in recent years. And he is a seemingly tireless worker, touring more than just about anyone. If you like his music, you've got about 50 years worth to experience. He writes many catchy tunes, but you've got to enjoy lyrics, because that's where the real magic in his music lies. Many of his fans, me included, feel as though he has written the soundtrack to their lives, that's how well he connects with people through his music. In my mind, he is definitely a National Treasure, and he needs to survive this. He's got to.
