John Prine, legendary singer/songwriter died today

[Larsky]

Who?

Not surprised.

This breaks my heart.

I'm not really that familiar with his work, but I'd like to be. Which album/cd would you say is a good starting point for listening to his music?

Thanks, Larsky. I've been looking for a good anthology of his work, this looks like it'll be perfect.

Never heard of him.....and I'm sure the only reason he was mentioned was so the media could claim he died from COVID-19

You'd be wrong. John Prine was a legend among musicians and songwriters.

Who cares.

You’d be grossly mistaken dip shit

**** you too ******.

Now that is hilarious, coming from someone who spends his entire day on his knees licking trump's balls.

Coming from a prick that tongued the Klingons out of Obama's sphincter for the last 12 years, that seems a bit rich.

I'm going to miss him.

Millions of Prine fans. I have no problem with you wanting to politicize everything. But this man wrote some amazing songs and inspired musicians of every stripe.

Some of the songs he wrote.










He seems like more of a folk music with a little country mixed in. I like what I have heard but I never heard of him before he got COVID19.

Who?

Even I know who he was.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

‘Hello In There’ is my favorite.
His solo act was the spring semester concert at St Mary’s College in MD back in the 1970’s. His contract stipulated a case of cold Budweiser to accompany him on stage.

Someone called him the Mark Twain of singer/songwriters. He wrote songs like no one else could. His music was a big part of my life.

Godspeed, John Prine. Thank you for the music.

What a shitty day. Rest well, and thank you for all the music.

I do for one. He was a fantastic songwriter. Gems like him don't come along very often.

 

[Sun Devil 92]

He'll still be singing his songs....somewhere else.

Never heard of him.....does not matter.

R.I.P.

His songs are recorded so you can actually still hear them. You should give it a try. You’d become a fan.

Never heard of the guy, but I like the song I heard.

Why I never heard of him? Too insulated?

This livin' is a hard row to hoe. That's very true.
