No more illegal smiles. Guess he was lucky to survive himself long enough for Corona to take him, but surely was a great talent.

John Prine passed away today from Covid-19. He had been hospitalized a few days ago after developing symptoms.

One of the most eloquent songwriters of our time. Very sad.

@grampamark , I already started a thread on this under the same title, how can we ask mods to merge them? Hey, mods!

Yeah, I guess I missed yours.

Thanks, mods!

late to the thread, but I loved that man's music. I saw him in '76 or '77 with Steve Goodman, two great folk artists. No one else on stage. I really liked the older political and statement pieces - Sam Stone, Hello in There, Paradise, and even the odd Come Back To Us, Barbara Lewis...
