To me John Prine is one of a kind . One of the best song writers to walk this earth . Not much of a country music person . John Prine and Blaze Foley are pretty much it for me. 2 of the best both gone . The world will never replace thier talents .
One of my all time favorites, and listening to people laughing sounded like another nail in our collective hearts. John shoulda been a Wilbury seein how he's every bit song writer the other five guys were.
The greatest song writer, an American treasure, there will be no one to sing theses songs like you, one of a kind. R.I.P John, you got me through many hard times
Natural Human Instinct It's actually a nervous response when people dont know how to respond. Or alot of folk songs get started with artists giving a little back story to the song and a good bit of them are funny also a fair amount aren't true also this was a new song and they most likely didn't think it was a true life event. But man can this guy paint a picture with his words. I saw him many times and sadly it wasn't enough. Thankfully modern technology will hopefully keep him around for many years and ears
@@christophermichaud sorry if that came across arrogantly not my intentions at all. Sad story with a few life lessons in there. Keep on rocking. Peace my man!
I'm So addicted to THIS SONG!!! HOW IRONIC?!!! WE THE WORLD ARE DOING EXACTLY THAT! Getting Mad and Getting Madder.. Saying..What the hells Matter??? ...your right JP..it DON'T HELP!..So help me... I know!!! (But.. Fortunately..I have the key..to Escape REALITY! ;) God bless you John PRINE ❣️❣️😍
I could listen all day to John Prine and wonder why he isn’t right up there with Bob Dylan? I’m 75, but had never heard of him until we lost him to Covid.
Dylan said Mr Prine was a better composer than he was..Roger Waters also considers him one of the greatest songwriters..is amazing what an ex-mailman can produce; truly one of kind bird...so painful to know he is gone....
Saw him Nov 2019 in Tampa. Tremendous concert, I love this guy! "For a heart stained in anger grows weak and grows bitter. You become your own prisoner as you watch yourself sit there, wrapped up in a trap ... of your very own chain of sorrow"
So sorry for your loss. I can't imagine the pain you must still go through. But I can imagine John being there for and consoling you every step of the way.
Amazing that the basis for the song was an event that happened when he was 14. I wonder if he wrote the song then or years later. Either way it shows what a great songwriter he is, since he paints pictures or sings a film of real events in life.
I have been a John fan since about 1975, wore this album out! Like most of his dedicated following, spent many hours re-visiting his catalogue around the time of his passing and missed this sad poignant tune. Have not heard it for years. Thank you for posting, gonna play it again 💙
I recorded this when it was broadcast by holding the mike of one of those old-fashioned mono cassette recorders near the TV speakers. Listened to it for years. Strange to come across it again.
What an amazing line! The laughing was infuriating....perhaps the crowd was uncomfortable with a serious song. Still, "I'll never forget the looks on those other women's faces."
Mr. Prine. It's always a pleasure, Sir, to run across your music. I can never state strongly enough to suit myself what a unique personality you are. I don't know whether your music brings you to life, or life brought the music to you.
When I was an altar boy, I used to take a shortcut at 7 in the morning through the railroad yards to get to church. By myself, past all the bums and everything. Freight trains all over the place. Also rain, snow, whatever.
This is deep philosophical truth right here: But it don't do no good to get angry So help me, I know For a heart stained in anger grows weak and grows bitter You become your own prisoner as you watch yourself sit there Wrapped up in a trap of your very own Chain of sorrow
So far I could research: The blond was his bass player and (later) wife RACHEL PEER. In the other song "Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness" Rachel, in a surprising 'make over', has a much more sexy appearance !
+King Pleasure They made up for it at the end by showing their appreciation, buddy. ;-) I think the second time they laughed was out of embarrasment tbh. But i thought what you said too.
+King Pleasure Audiences often laugh when they should cry. I once asked an actor about how he felt when an audience laughed at inappropriate moments and he said "But it is the most beautiful sound in the world."
any john prine or larry crane fans out there.. know of a copy of the movie "bruised orange" ?? gary at larrycrane dooooooot coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
With JP it’s like free association. But not with words. With themes. There’s like three ideas in this song and I’m not sure they all connect but it doesn’t matter. It just works on an unconscious level. Sort of like Jackson Pollack. Or Jack Kerouac.
Is that long time Eagles guitarist Don Felder playing acoustic in Prine's back-up band? On the left hand side of the stage, the guy with the long, blondish.hair and beard. I read Felder's fine biography Heaven and Hell - My Life With The Eagles. I'm trying to think if he mentioned playing for Prine..... he may have.
Glen Parker - I have read Don Felder’s book, still have it, and find no mention of John Prine in the index. Possible I suppose as Felder joined Eagles in 74 so a couple years there between Prine’s breakout in 71 and Eagles.
I don't need no therapy. I've got John Prine. R.I.P. John. A good friend I never met.
No one will ever replace John Prine ❤
“And my head shouted down to my heart, you better look out below “ this speaks volumes to me
its worthy of Shakespeare
My favorite lyric of all time!!!
To me John Prine is one of a kind .
One of the best song writers to walk this earth . Not much of a country music person . John Prine and Blaze Foley are pretty much it for me. 2 of the best both gone . The world will never replace thier talents .
What about Townes and Kristofferson, I agree John is at the top of the tree. Love Blaze as well.
@@ashrach18 .
Every time i listen to a Prine song, i am in awe.Makes me so sad that he is gone. This song is heartbreaking.
i love john prine and being from the mid west every song hits my heart
One of my all time favorites, and listening to people laughing sounded like another nail in our collective hearts. John shoulda been a Wilbury seein how he's every bit song writer the other five guys were.
John woulda been a perfect addition to the already perfect Wilburys. Good call!
Only Dylan was a better songwriter, IMO
@@thomasreen5860 Respect your opinion Thomas, but I honestly feel John Prine is right there.
Totally agree!
woulda coulda shoulda. brilliant thought
this man sings about his life and what has happned to him . you can feel his soul
True music will stand the the test of time,there is so much history in the ballads,sadly disappearing.
The boy's name was Raymond Kozak. He was 12 years old when he was killed by the train in February 1959.
The greatest song writer, an American treasure, there will be no one to sing theses songs like you, one of a kind. R.I.P John, you got me through many hard times
My goodness-who could possibly laugh during this story? Keep fighting, Mr. Prine. We love you.

@@kurtking5913 not at all, my friend! Really was a good point. Be well.
@@christophermichaud 👍✌
Have not heard this tune until now..damn, more evidence that he is greater than great.
I'm So addicted to THIS SONG!!!
HOW IRONIC?!!!
WE THE WORLD ARE DOING EXACTLY THAT!
Getting Mad and Getting Madder..
Saying..What the hells Matter???
...your right JP..it DON'T HELP!..So help me...
I know!!!
(But.. Fortunately..I have the key..to Escape REALITY! ;)
God bless you John PRINE ❣️❣️😍
Miss you already John - hope you're doing ok.
A lyricist like no other!
Magnificent song.

Being a Dylan fan, I believe although there are different types of writers, John is everything has equal.
Saw him Nov 2019 in Tampa. Tremendous concert, I love this guy! "For a heart stained in anger grows weak and grows bitter.
You become your own prisoner as you watch yourself sit there,
wrapped up in a trap ... of your very own chain of sorrow"
One of my favorites. Not just of his, but of anyone. Sort of helped me heal the loss of my daughter.
Heard Of Him For Years Yet Never Knowingly, Heard Him.
EXCEPTIONAL, Unfortunately I Found Him After He Past.
@@drewlou2 his music is timeless.

Thank you for sharing this totally cool performance from this totally cool guy John Prine. God bless everyone from Pat
I think hes the only guy that I ever owned .... ALL his albums. ..... great song writer fo sho ?
It's beyond difficult to choose a favorite John Prine song, but pretty sure this one is mine. I love you, John Prine. Rest in peace, dear man.
I have been a John fan since about 1975, wore this album out! Like most of his dedicated following, spent many hours re-visiting his catalogue around the time of his passing and missed this sad poignant tune. Have not heard it for years. Thank you for posting, gonna play it again 💙
It’s purely by chance and thanks to you tube for discovering John prince and his heartwarming music on here, what a singer, what amazing songs.
..took one look and knew it was the '70's....the styles.. so great.
Rest in peace John!
Never heard of this guy can't understand why, what a great entertainer and band. Thanks for posting
Woodie Thompspn , hopefully you've discovered his other songs. The guy is a genius song writer.
Loved him. Miss him. Love to listen to him.
Alway loved this, just another day of life laid out in a detailed little riff
Jon Perrine remind s me of good friends that left us too soon God bless Rusty Clutter for introducing me to his music
I love these video's where he was so young and sang with his wife Rachel
I recorded this when it was broadcast by holding the mike of one of those old-fashioned mono cassette recorders near the TV speakers. Listened to it for years. Strange to come across it again.
cool memory
America’s Greatest Song Writer!
I COULD LISTEN TO JOHN ALL DAY AND NIGHT HE'S THAT DAM GOOD !!!!!!
Thanks for sharing these great John Prine video's, they've helped get me through a long night.
Me too
Great song for now 2020 Don't Get Angry but sometimes it is hard not too
Folk music is powerful
I love this album. still have it
I’ll never forget the look on those other women’s faces.......speaks volumes.
fresh as the morning dew
I'll never forget the look on those other women's faces.
What an amazing line! The laughing was infuriating....perhaps the crowd was uncomfortable with a serious song. Still, "I'll never forget the looks on those other women's faces."
lucyb35 I think they thought he was joking at first.
i think this is a good and truthful song
We love you John ❤️
This is the best song! EVER! Or 2nd, maybe.
Only discovered John Prine after he died.
What have I missed?
awesome song
He’s the best
RIP but live in on in our love and gratitude.
This song speaks to me.
I cringed when the audience laughed as JP was sharing some of the Bruised Orange background story. They obviously never saw him perform it.
Same door out
Saw that too " I didn't mean it as a joke"
I cringe now hearing the girl's harmony. I don't think she even knew the words!
@@andyghelfi6050 it was a song so new it didn't have a title.
That girl was his 2nd wife.
A heart stained in anger grows weak and grows bitter......
Friggin' Awesome!
Mr. Prine. It's always a pleasure, Sir, to run across your music. I can never state strongly enough to suit myself what a unique personality you are. I don't know whether your music brings you to life, or life brought the music to you.
Uplifting!
absolutely perfect
No way the audience knew how lucky they were.
John, descansa en paz y fuerza para la familia. Su arte musical sera siempre agradecido y recordado.
He reacts to his audience. Didn't mean it as a joke. Perceptive. That's how he writes.
RIP John
When I was an altar boy, I used to take a shortcut at 7 in the morning through the railroad yards to get to church. By myself, past all the bums and everything. Freight trains all over the place. Also rain, snow, whatever.
Such an interesting story.
Rachel Peer could sure sing harmony.
Is she the one he married?
@@moondancer3157 She was his 2nd wife. He wrote Lake Marie about their breakup.
This is deep philosophical truth right here:
But it don't do no good to get angry
So help me, I know
For a heart stained in anger grows weak and grows bitter
You become your own prisoner as you watch yourself sit there
Wrapped up in a trap of your very own
Chain of sorrow
John Prine tribute song by songwriter Dennis Callahan
The Great John Prine..
RIP Terry Combs who turned me on to JP many years ago.
They took off his other videos from this concert and I wish they hadn't, he is an awesome singer, I wish they would put the videos back on YT
If you don't like this you should have never been here in the first place
Jack Meoff I love John Prine... That doesn't mean I have to love the laughter at a serious matter. 😢
I feel like i'm in Church!!
one day, things will be good...
@robinshammer, I used to be 28 fireflies; thanks for your input, "we do carry our greatest scars on the inside where ........"
John is smoking a big one now.
I love how they laugh when he says someone got hit by a train 😂
Looks like a young Rachel playing bass
Brilliant
our loss
@robinshammer
I like what your interpretation adds to his comments, and expect JP would as well.
So far I could research: The blond was his bass player and (later) wife RACHEL PEER. In the other song "Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness" Rachel, in a surprising 'make over', has a much more sexy appearance !
no...they divorced a long time ago. His present wife is his manager.
I fail to see the make over.
I wish I knew WHAT the looks were on the other mothers faces....
RIP saddened
Why are those people laughing? Even after he said it wasn't a joke, they continued to laugh. Sick.
+King Pleasure They made up for it at the end by showing their appreciation, buddy. ;-)
I think the second time they laughed was out of embarrasment tbh. But i thought what you said too.
+King Pleasure They're probably stoned...Duh
+King Pleasure Audiences often laugh when they should cry. I once asked an actor about how he felt when an audience laughed at inappropriate moments and he said "But it is the most beautiful sound in the world."
+King Pleasure They don't laugh at the end of the song....
Aro tej ⚘
did i say love u
perfect guess.
Reminds me of Dylan
Dylan reminds me of Prine
+Kenneth Margo Prine retains a sense of.... well, you know....
John Prine is a real person, Dylan forgot what is was to be a real person in 1966
Kenneth Margo Prine was a dylon fan for meny years
@@TheFajitameat Yes he does. Dylan said 2 of his favorites song writers were Prine and Buffet
any john prine or larry crane fans out there.. know of a copy of the movie "bruised orange" ??
gary at larrycrane dooooooot coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I bet the 2 DISLIKES were BOTH alter boys
ALTAR
+Julie Hattory boys
jimmy d Goddamn that's funny
With JP it’s like free association. But not with words. With themes.
There’s like three ideas in this song and I’m not sure they all connect but it doesn’t matter. It just works on an unconscious level. Sort of like Jackson Pollack. Or Jack Kerouac.
are you still alive couse your good very cool and a good singer john green
RIP
The transcript has many errors. But John is wonderful, as always.
Vents everyone laughing 😱
Anyone have an update on where Rachel Peer is now?
Who is playing the telecaster?
Does anyone know who the lady is singing with him. Reminds me of Juice Newton. Was that her by any chance?
It's Rachel Peer his bass player and his wife. /CD
HEARING OOPS
OMG 1 LETTER
Why the fuck are they laughing when he tells the tragedy of the altar boy??
also ....its sweet - but spoiled by the bruise
Is that long time Eagles guitarist Don Felder playing acoustic in Prine's back-up band? On the left hand side of the stage, the guy with the long, blondish.hair and beard. I read Felder's fine biography Heaven and Hell - My Life With The Eagles. I'm trying to think if he mentioned playing for Prine..... he may have.

what is the name of the DVD?
Bruised Orange
