EXCELLENT TRIPLE DISC SET OF RARE LIVE JOHN PRINE RECORDINGS Widely cited as one of the most influential, yet criminally underrated, songwriters of his generation, John Prine was known for humorous lyrics about love, life, and current events, as well as for serious songs with social commentary and others that recollect melancholy tales from his life. In 2020, he received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Hi sad passing on April 7th 2020, following complications caused by COVID-19, at the age of 73, was a tragic loss for family friends and fans alike - which numbered many big music names, from Bob Dylan to Billy Brag among hundreds of others.
