That sucks, RIP buddy... One of our favorite songs, my wife and I.

crap.....this covid shit is really starting to suck ! I loved J.P’s songs.
even though he’s not singing this one, he wrote it and I think Bonnie does a great job covering and does it justice,

I will miss John much. I have memories of where an want was going on when listening to his music. Always played his CD's while traveling to an from many places close & far over the years.
May you rest in peace John, I will miss you everyday.

I was in highschool school back in 2007 when I got hooked on John Prine. It was around the same time I took a 2 week trip to Alaska with my grandparents. I listened to a few of his albums on repeat the entire trip.
whenever i think of John Prine I think of that amazing trip.
I was so bummed when I heard the news.

Really sad that so many aren't aware of the songs he wrote.
"Please don't bury me
Down in that cold, cold ground
No, I?d rather have 'em cut me up
And pass me all around"
"Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size"
"Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just to get 'em out of here"
"Venus De Milo can have my arms
Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junk man
And give my love to Rose"

Bonnie's numerous renditions of Angels of Montgomery is an enjoyable YouTube journey, she's really done those lyrics justice over the years. The early version you posted 1974 to this 2019 performance and all those in between....
Please pardon me for the Colbert exposure.
The duo version with John Prine....

Fortunate enough to see him live. Wish this shit would have taken one of sonic trash generating pop stars instead.
Saw him 40 or so years ago in Savannah. Didn't know he had a new album out in 2018 - The Tree of Forgiveness until I was reading about him just recently.
