John Prine is dead. His songs have been a part of my life almost forever. From "Please Don't Bury Me"and "Your Flag Decal Won't Get You in Heaven Anymore" to "Paradise". John told his stories with both humor and deadly truth.
I will miss his work.

Yes.
ReplyDeleteAnd Good choice of three songs.
Luckily just been lockdown refurbishing my ancient hi-fi, so got out four 1970s vinyl ops of his - bring tears to the eye, even without his death.
Best to all Prine lovers from Sheffield England

Danny,
ReplyDeleteI do not know this for sure but I expect John's life was a life well lived. Still he is gone much too soon.
Stay safe, I assume you, like myself, are in the danger cohort and are staying in place.
Good luck,

Yes indeed he was a gifted story teller in his songs. Stories we can all learn something from.
ReplyDeleteThankfully we all got his songs left behind to enjoy for years to come... until we see him again.
Bob, a long time fan of his works. RIP buddy
Bob,
ReplyDeleteOur youth is dying off, some much too soon but at least we still have Willy.
