I'm 70 yrs old and I just found John Prine. I missed out on listening to him for about 50 yrs so I guess I've got alot of catching up to do or live to 140. I hope I go to heaven and he's there too

[@KevinKennedydublin]

I wonder if John Prine ever watched all these vintage videos on KZbin that he may have missed first time around. I'd like to think he did. I saw JP three times in the 2 years before he died, and he always paid tribute to his friend 'Stevie' Goodman. 2 legends. Together again I hope.

[@hochbob]

We have been blessed by the genius of these great trubadours. This duet is one of the most melodic guitar pieces I've ever heard.

[@gailwilliams2678]

There is a sweet, short documentary here somewhere about Steve Goodman, featuring interviews with John Prine, Arlo Guthrie, Kris Kristofferson, Steve's widow, and his manager. Kristofferson has to stop talking at one point, because he starts crying. I was blessed to see Steve perform at the Moore Theater in Seattle in the mid-70s. He played solo for three hours, with one little break. What a treat that was!

[@machtschnell7452]

A duet by two great American songwriters. They are both crown jewels of American music.

[@paulshafer1808]

I am so lucky to have lived during this musical era

[@jaysoneubanks579]

I never knew who John Prine was until I heard of his passing. I consider myself very knowledgeable when it comes to music. I have been exploring John's music for the last 4 weeks and I can say that he, without a doubt, has become my most favorite song writer of all time. Such simple song structure with such a powerful message. I'm sad I never got to see you perform John. I hope you are having your vodka and ginger ale next to peaceful waters.

[@THEEJuror13]

Jayson Eubanks The world of Prine and Goodman is the best the music world has ever put together.... No studio tuning here... and the writing is top notch.... enjoy the tour....

[@fishinwithjimgronaw6224]

A musical void that may never be filled, sad, yet powerful, sweet, and somehow strong. I used to play Johns songs in bars back in the 70's as a much younger man when not many knew of him. Now, as I approach 70, I feel once again drawn to the truthful lyrics and earthy performances that he blessed us with. Thankful that I got to see him perform live a couple of times. RIP.

[@gtsipejr]

@jayson Eubanks, you have a lot of company on who you rate as your favorite.

[@dylp420]

Welcome to the house of Prine, come on in.

[@l2string]

I saw John in Pittsburgh in early 2012, he dedicated this song to his brother who he said wasn't doing too well, was in the hospital, they had talked before the show and his brother had asked John to play this for him. John ended the song with tears streaming down his face. THIS MAN IS REAL. Love you John.

[@ugmodude]

I saw JP and SG at the Paramount Theater in Austin, TX on March 5 1982, the night John Belushi died. John Prine dedicated "Sam Stone" to his old buddy. Brilliant show. R.I.P. Steve Goodman. He was one of those dudes you could tell was a genuinely nice guy from a mile away.

"Broken hearts and dirty windows make life difficult to see". The best line in any song. I saw John perform this 30 years ago and swore I would learn to fingerpick it. It's now my favorite song of his to play. I miss him so much.

[@PamB95]

I had the pleasure of seeing John and Steve together at Milwaukee's Summerfest on the Country Stage. Steve told jokes about his leukemia (dude had a dark sense of humor). John made a point (more than one, actually) about the fact that it was Steve that wrote "City of New Orleans". Damn, those two put on the best show. Have a beer for me in the afterlife, guys.
