Music reviews of John Prine
Music Review: Haunting verse brings me back
Rating: 5 Stars
I was trying to remember whether I bought this album before or after I heard him at Willie's 1st picnic in '73. I haven't heard the whole album in ages but the songs keep coming back to me.
In the news today, the Obama administration halted mountain-top mining, for a while, I guess. Sadly, what the coal trains haven't hauled off has been just pushed over the side, devastating the environment for miles around. Another Paradise lost.
Illegal Smile, Sam Stone, Angel... Can't forget them, so I found my way here to buy the CD, since the old phono is in the junk closet.
I'm looking forward to sharing JP with my daughter, a big Dixie Chicks fan.
If you're already a JP fan and haven't seen the "song notes" for this album, www jpshrine org/lyrics/index html.
Fascinating.
Description of John Prine
Prine's 1971 self-titled debut set the tone for the rest of his career. A critical smash and a commercial disappointment, the record contains many of his best known compositions. Proving himself capable of tackling folk balladry, country, and rock with ease, Prine seems to spring into being as a fully formed singer-songwriter at age 24. Lyrically diverse, Prine offers topical songs such as "Sam Stone," the tale of a drug addicted Vietnam vet, achingly sad songs, such as the oft-covered "Angel from Montgomery," and, of course, his trademark wit gets ample time in the spotlight. Produced by the legendary Arif Mardin (Aretha Franklin, the Modern Jazz Quartet, Hall and Oates), the record is understated, letting Prine's comfy voice drive things. When needed, the famous house band at American Recording Studios in Memphis kicks in tasteful backing. --Ian LandauGeneral CDs
