@Lyle Wilson The doctors are hiding cures. Okay, let's just think about that for a minute. What is their motivation? Money, you say? So, what kind of cures are they hiding? The kind that would be less expensive than the cures they push. I wonder if they ever decide to let one person live. Or perhaps they callously hide the cure for 100% of their patients. Let me just say: The doctors hide the cancer cures. You, on the other hand, hide the sentient being you allege yourself to be.

Cancer can also give you the gift of appreciating every little aspect of life. I've been there, and talked to friends about the boost of energy and determination to get the most out of your life!

@@glendabarr7704 exactly. Life is hard enough living with cancer you don't want to waste time on negatives

I was lucky to buy tickets to see Steve Martin at the Latin Casino in Cherry Hill NJ in the 70's. Took my little sister (high school kid) and Steve Goodman was the opening act. Didn't know much about him then but now it's a real memory.

@mi channnal Go drink a big glass of those chemicals that big Chemical Companies tell us is totally safe. I get a laugh out of goofs like you that think anybody who dares ask questions are all conspiracy theorists. Follow the money. In many cases, that will lead you to answers. Event 201, just a coincidence? Those that backed it now at the top making decisions like Fauci and Birx. Sometimes people like you need to pull their head out of their sphincter. How did Fauci predict a pandemic would occur during Trump's Presidency? People hiding in their homes listening to BS from their governments and believing everything they are told. Ironic that you would bring up tin hats. LOL

He was a lotta good joyful.

I've been enjoying John Prine all my adult life. I've been busy the last 25 years with grandkids & great grands. A couple of months ago I looked up John Prine. Broke my heart to learn he had passed away from that damn covid. I've been listening to his music & crying a lot for a 72 year old lady.. I found Steve Goodman from JP. He was an amazing singer, songwriter and awesome entertainer!!! He would have been up there with Willie, Merle & Jonny Cash. Its ashame he was taken away at 36. I can't stop watching Steve Goodman's video. All the energy he had and he seemed so happy. Doing something he loved...his heart was in every word he sang. He never showed he was suffering from Leukemia for almost 15 years. His music made me happy. I know that Christmas is going to be awesome. 2 new great granddaughters to enjoy it with. I asked Santa for John Prine & Steve Goodman CD's and videos for Christmas so I'm looking forward to it. I hope every one has a Merry Christmas & a even Happier New Year. Thank God we had 2 awesome entertainers that have left us some awesome music.

Indeed my Friend

The man wore a smile like an old worn comfortable coat. All through his journey through the trials and tribulations of trying to survive leukemia, the smile was there. A much better man than I. RIP kind soul.🙏

Yes, he always seemed so joyful to be performing.

I am jealous!

You’re a very lucky person to have seen Steve Goodman Live once, much less a dozen times. He is the most powerful and energetic performer of my time.

Saw him at Harry Hope's in Cary,IL on Memorial Day 1975.His encore was "Penny Evans" Jethro Burns played mandolin with him that night

God Bless you Rest in ☮️

Steve Goodman 1976

He played at “The Library “ ( a bar.” we’re at library studying. Lol. In Fayetteville Arkansas in late 1960s early 70s. My husband & I went every Fri & Sat and studied a lot with him…. He was the happiest singer I’ve ever seen.

Aren’t they both right here right now? 💕💥💕💥🙏

❤

Awesome

Lucky you! I listen to his recordings and watch youtubes and consider myself blessed

I just discovered Steve and John prine 6 months ago while playing on my laptop, iplayer them all the time. Love them both. John passed one month later, I was crushed. Thanks kris for finding These two talents in chicago.

Bless You prayers for God's Blessings

So talented. Gave 100%

try his vertion of John Prines Blue Umbrella i heard it on utube yesterday

He could flatpick the snot out of that guitar, and still fingerpick with the best of them. And so generous with other musicians. Quite a man.

That's true, even though I remember him as one of the greatest :P

Cathy B such an incredible talent and person🥂🍷🍹

going to see john prine this may. met/saw goodman way back in 1974. his energy is love [was].

Like you, I discovered Steve Goodman late in my life, and after his had expired, but I listen to him regularly. Your mention of John Prine, though, almost made me cry--I discovered him late in life, too--about six months before he passed away from Covid his year. Two monumental musicians/song writers--Steve Goodman and John Prine.

Now, they are both gone.

Check out Jim Post also.

Michael Stewart Steve sometimes referred to himself as Cool Hand Leuk.

And, irrelevantly, as "Chicago Shorty".

I thought I had the won the lottery when I discovered John Prine in may of 2020..Steve Goodman was a added grand prize . My twin Phil went th heaven in may 2020, so I guess he had me find John & Stevie to cheer me up..and that they did ! They all are probably smoking on that 9 mile cigarette !! Thanks guys !! .

@@phyllispennings9732 I highly recommend Greg Brown, a much more prolific song writer than Dylan.

We all know him through his music.

So much talent, in one package........with a giant heart.

I am 73. I should have known more about him.The first think I ever heard was the Lincoln Park Pirates. I think the next thing I heard was the Dying Cub Fans Last Request. For a long time I did not know he wrote City of New Orleans. I doubt he got very much play on Chicago radio and probably not nationwide either. I really didn't know much about John Prine either I am going to have to start lisening to his records.

Same w/ Prine...his songs have so much emotion---I see why Prine liked/respected Steve so much.

@@sanford943 sadly, you are correct. Born and raised in Chicago and pretty much the only time you heard either of them was on a local station, it might have been the PBS station or UICC's station. He also did a radio show eery New Years eve. I'm just a little too young to have caught them at the Earl of Old Town, but I did manage to catch Fread and Ed Holstein there in the early 80s. I can see John and Steve pickin' with God and putting on one hell of a show for the Angels

Marcy Rieser I’ve been watching John and his tributes but no links to Steve even though John talks about him all the time? i had to search, glad I did!

+Mike Edgerton Mike I saw him the night before or the night after at the Paramount in Portland in the middle of the show John Prine walked on played a few with Steve also inspiring.

Was at the Portland Paramount show as well. Steve is the most fabulous musician & can talk through like nobody else. Managed to see him anytime he was near Portland

@@jimspencer8968 Me too!

@@nancydraeger1687 Me too!

Bruce Watson Around 1973 I saw Steve Goodman and John Prine together at the Saenger Theater in Mobile, Ala. THAT was the best concert I've ever been to. Wish I had been a little more straight so I could remember more about it!

James Sterling If you'd been straight, you'd have been the only one :-) Concerts in the 70s were way too much fun!

Bruce Watson Same with me Bruce!

When we saw him in the early 80's, we sat through both shows in Cincinnati. He played through both sets with amazing energy, and when his voice gave out he played slide and danced to Bandstand! Wouldn't have missed it for the world!

Agreed

I was 1/4 mile behind Harry Chapin on the Eastbound LIE when he rear ended the semi in his VW Rabbit.

+W. J. Esposito man do i ever hear you

+Tim Lechowicz .....me too Tim

+W. J. Esposito I had the pleasure of seeing Steve play at a fest in canada in 1975 . it started to rain during his set .. the tarp covering the stage leaked . He said I will stay as you long as you will stay and listen . he had a stage hand come out and hold an umbrella over him and his guitar . I crept up to the stage and gave him my bottle of blacktower wine . he sipped and played all the songs we knew ... afterwards said meet me at the stage gate . i went . he gave me a kiss , a kc royals bb cap and the rest of my wine back . awesome guy . ( i do not know why the kc cap as he was a cubs fan ) goood memories . RIP steve .

Steve was a wonderful songwriter in his own right, but his renditions of Mike Smith's "The Dutchman" and "Spoon River" (which I wish was in this concert) were sublime!
