John Prine Appreation thread
Dec 22^nd, 2008 at 10:16pm

Been listening to Prine lately and found a few good vids on the youtube....thought I'd share.

Anyone have a favorite Prine album to suggest? I am only familiar with about half of them...but diamonds in the rough always gets steady airplay.

Same here. "Sam Stone" is a killer of a tune.

and Jesus died for nothin' I suppose
Little pitchers have big ears
Don't stop to count the years,
Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios..."
