Singer. Songwriter. Poet. Icon.
John Prine was an artist’s artist with a list of admirers and collaborators that cut across musical genres and generations - names like Kris Kristofferson, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Bonnie Raitt, Johnny Cash, Tom Petty, Brandi Carlile, George Strait, Kurt Vile, Miranda Lambert, The Everly Brothers, Emmylou Harris, among others.
Though he was born in Maywood, Illinois, in 1946, John declared himself “pure Kentuckian” throughout his life. His parents, Willian and Verna, were natives of Paradise, Kentucky. The family would spend summers there in Muhlenberg County, where John listened to bluegrass music and studied the guitar styles of country music heroes Doc Watson and Merle Travis with his older brother, Dave.
In Maywood, he worked as a postman before being drafted into the army in 1966. It was as a postman that John began to write the songs that would connect with so many. He sang at Chicago folk clubs, where he was introduced to singer-songwriter Kris Kristopherson, who invited John to open for him in New York. It was there that Jerry Wexler, president of Atlantic Records, first heard Prine and offered him a recording contract. His self-titled debut album was released in 1971 and featured a list of songs now regarded as classics, including “Paradise,” “Angel From Montgomery,” “Illegal Smile,” Hello in There,” and “Sam Stone.” Prine received the first of his 13 Grammy nominations in 1972 for Best New Artist. He would record three more albums for Atlantic and another three with Asylum.
His profound impact on American music was amplified in 1981 when John co-founded Oh Boy Records, and independent label where he released most of his subsequent work and which gave voice and respect to so many fellow singers and songwriters.
In his distinguished career, John won four Grammys and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award (2020). He was a three-time recipient of the Artist of the Year Award at the Americana Music Honors & Awards, which also honored him with the Lifetime Achievement Award for Songwriting. He won the Pen/New England Song Lyrics of Literary Excellence Award (2016) and was enshrined in the Songwriters Hall of Fame (2019). In addition, John was named Honorary Poet Laureate of Illinois (2020).
John Prine passed away on April 7, 2020 due to complications from Covid-19. The outpouring of grief and love from his fan community was staggering. Over 500,000 viewers participated in an online memorial and tribute that raised more than half a million dollars for Covid-related community causes. In 2021, the Prine family created the Hello In There Foundation to honor John’s spirit of generosity towards those in need. Fiona Prine and her sons continue to operate and expand the reach of John’s independent record label, Oh Boy Records.

I miss him like a dear old friend , having never met notwithstanding. RIP John. You are missed
Oh John, we do miss you so.
THANK GOD FOR JOHN PRINE MUSIC IS BEST. 🐬
I'm a rocker, from 60's, punk, and metal. I never listen to country music, except some Johnny Cash, and a handful of other songs. But I will listen to any and everything John Prine. I love this man. Miss him dearly.
Try Lucinda Williams, Blaze Foley, Townes Van Zant. It will be a good fit, I promise.

Hello Fiona my heart ache for you my husband passed away August 2021 but not before hearing John on u tube that I had found during pandemic
I like to think he’s listening to Johns beautiful music in heaven 🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜
I have been a fan for 40 years.
This is a man with such class. He introduces his band at the end and even feels the need to introduce himself after that. Miss you so much, John.
My daughter, Bobbi, and I were there sitting 1st row behind the snow fence, directly in front of John!
Just listened to Broken Hearts and Dirty Windows Vol. 2 over dinner tonight and had a hard time keeping it together.
John Prine was the sound track to my childhood. His music is embedded in my soul and I’m thankful for his amazing songs. 💖
Amen.
Embedded in my soul, too. I love how you put that.
@@suer5899 thank you, friend.
What an awesome element of a childhood to have. My children have that. I didn't know him until my early 20s. ✌🏼
@@jessewestbrook9816 yes it’s wonderful. You’re blessed too, having John Prine’s music in your youth.
It’s amazing how few people know about this man’s incredible music.
I love playing your music over and over missing you 😢
I first heard John Prine in the early 70s, and man, I was in love!!! I was 19 and thru all life’s plans & surprises, I remained in love with John and his music. He’ll will remain in my heart and hopefully be playing his guitar at The Pearly Gates! Thank you for sharing him again. God bless you all!
RIP
We miss you John.
Was there for this.. I live only 1/2 mile from the site lol
John was like an old friend..
RIP old friend..

This is the most useful comment in CZcams history
That is so good to pull out the band's performance from the "old" days. I just purchased this past Christmas the two cd release of John's concerts over two night back in1976 at the "Other End" in NYC. Loved that. I also had the fortune to see John and his last band in Toronto and Buffalo that was off the charts. I loved John introducing the band members and when he gets to his drummer really did not know why he did not have a drummer the last thirty years. So John Prine. It was great to see Fiona walk John off the stage after John's little jig on the stage in closing the show. Love you all at Oh Boy records to keep the lights on, so to speak. Ttyl, Al
Check out the Hello in There foundation it was set up to help various causes that are near and dear to John and his family . Feeding and housing the homeless for one . The Prine family match all the donations and it goes to various charitable organizations check it out they have a website, In October there will be a weeks worth of concerts in Nashville called You Got Gold all the profits from those will also go to the foundation
The world lost an irreplaceable gift. I was honored to see him in New Orleans on the Riverboat President. I think the year was 1983. I was very young at the time but I will just say that his music will always be as meaningful and wonderful to me as it was 40 years ago. And all the years in between. God bless you all still listening in 2022. We miss you, John.
The greatest storyteller of all time. I was lucky enough to John twice. I got him very setting his high school and was great I will never forget him.
I’m 47 years old, my uncle got me hooked on John when I was a kid with Dear Abby! Every since I’ve been loving John! Finally was able to him in Atlanta a few years ago! What a legend!!!
John Prine was a Treasure 🙏👍 RIP
I didn't discover John Prine till after his death and I feel robbed for not getting to watch him play live. Definitely one of my top artists that I listen to nowadays. He just seems like a genuine nice guy that is no different than the comman man.Thanks for sharing this video
Same here William. Sadly I didn't discover until after he passed. John has quickly become my favorite artist singing my favorite songs!
I am on the opposite end of the scale, my father was a fan since the early 80s and that was the earliest memories I have of music and in turn it has became my mission to make sure every human on earth knows about this man in the great music he made. I’m glad that you hopped aboard. his words are timeless
Same with me. Lotta catching up to do.
@@isaacj.elliott2137 Yeah I've been telling my family and friends about him. I honestly think anybody can listen to his music and relate to him in one way or another. You got songs like "hello in there" that he wrote at such a young age that makes you realize the wisdom and foresight he had as young man. Most people at that age aint thinking about the older people and what some of them go through in the later years in life.
Same here, I only ever knew him as "the guy that wrote Angel from Montgomery", which I always loved...but it's been surpassed in my estimation by so, so many of his other songs. Where to start, when you have "Far From Me," "Christmas in Prison," "Donald & Lydia," "Mexican Home," etc., etc., etc. What an absolute gem of a songwriter, singer, and human being.
If there was one hand I wish I could shake, and tell it's owner "Thank you for your gifts to us all", it's John Prine's. Lovely, lovely man. Rest in peace, you marvel, you.
a true treasure, a genuine gift to the world, forever beloved and exquisitely missed-always but his music lives on to soothe our souls. Thank you John, Fiona, and OBR ❤️🙌🏼
What a lovely message from Fiona- I plan on seeing this.
One of the last National Treasures. Hard to believe he's already been gone two years. One of the greatest songwriters who ever walked the earth.....and we were all lucky to be here at the same time as John Prine!
Been listening to John Prine for over fifty years now and he always brings a smile to my face when I hear one of his songs. Thank you to all responsible in sharing this. Love to all his family…
Hellooo from Chicago!! Caught John Prine once live on Navy Pier in the 90’s. Fantastic performance, great vibe, Lake Michigan summer air cooling us all down. John is my pick me up go to when feeling melancholy. Right now from my couch in Rogers Park imagining sitting on the hill in the city I grew up in, Edmonton, sipping on a Big Rock and listening to this live.
Hello from home!
John has been (and will continue to be) my musical companion since 1970. I love his music, what he stood for, his sense of humour and everything else.
Thank you John for everything.... because of you, world is much better place.🙏
I’m so grateful for this. What a wonderful legacy John has left. We’ll miss him forever.
Never missed a concert of John Prine in Edmonton. One of the best artists that is in the soundtrack to my life.
Gonna have a cottail...vodka and ginger ale..in heaven with John someday. Thanks for sharing this. Much love
What a great song love his music value for us to hear 😊😅❤🎉 you will be missed bye
Thanks for helping to make me a better person John & for all the Musical souvenirs. RIP🎻🎶🎵💌🙏
Always said John was magic in a bottle 💟
4th time watching this so far. I am sure I look like a crazy person because I am laughing and crying a lot, and at work no less. Miss you John, but what a legacy. "I got no hate, and I got no pride. Well I got so much love I cannot hide". Wishing everyone All the Best.
wow how i wished i was there,bless you john & band.love from ireland👍👍👍🎶🎶💎💎
Wow. That hit the spot 🎉
If there ever was a meaning to life, it could probably be found in a John Prine song
Damnit John Prine why did you have to go! Miss you man!
YES WE DO!
Condolences to Feona and the boys. He is missed more than he will ever know.. one hell of a loss. Still buying his CD's. 35 is a lot of treasured music and dedication!
The Best song writer EVER! John Prine! Yuppers 👍 Long live John.....
I saw him perform this concert!
I enjoyed truly spiritual healing experience!
Me too
So enjoyable, I miss you John. 🙏
I was blessed to see him live… front row seats…Fort Collins Co, 1984. Thanks Michelle, for surprising me with those tickets on a Thursday night after work. I grew up with his music. I just love his music, it’s a big part of my life experience
Best singer/songwriter who ever lived we all miss you so
Our youngest son found him for us, he actually got to go to one of his concerts! So happy he did, wish I had, his way with words is amazing, along with the musicians…….beautiful!
The music made these days is very sad. This is what talent is. A real musician. Thank you John.
I got to see John once in Nova Scotia in an outdoor folk festival
Loved him ever since
WOW! WE love and miss you Brother!!!
This is awesome
He reaches into my heart!
Stunning!
Great storyteller
I never met the man, but John's music feels like home.
I first saw John just as his first album came out. I was living in Milwaukee at the time . Me and a couple friends went to see him at UW Milwaukee campus. It was a small room with a movable stage set-up and there were about 200 people attending. I was in college at MATC in photography and had my black and white film and still cherish the photo I then printed in my darkroom. I’ve seen my concerts over the years from The Rolling Stones (twice), Led Zeppelin. Elvis, Bob Dylan , etc. I’ve seen John five or six times: Summerfest a couple times, Ravinia, Pioneer Center in Reno. John is still the most closest to my heart. The first time at UW Milwaukee was groundbreaking, jaw-dropping, you get the picture.
A great human, an even better song writer. Blow up your TV, throw away the papers, move to the country... way back in '68.
Perfect!!!
Are you kidding me!--this video IS perfect!--I would pay $$$ to just sit in my easy chair with my headphones on listening to this poet all afternoon--Thank You--You captured the moment beautifully.
John Prine was a true pure genius.
John Prine was the best! This kid on guitar is amazing too.
I was on that Hill that night! What a treasured memory
So nice too see 2022 wow thanks
One in a million! What a great gift....to see and hear him live!!!! Outstanding recording...felt like I was there! THANK YOU!! And Dave Jakes and Jason Wilbur are super talented and contribute brilliantly to John's brilliant music!! Grateful for my one and only actual live time seeing him with Nancy Griffith (RIP) at the South Shore Music Theater in Massachusetts. We are so blessed to have had their beautiful spirits and songs!
I am 33 years old and recently started learning how to play the guitar. A coworker suggested I learn some John Prine songs. The first song I heard was, "When I Get to Heaven" I instantly fell in love. I've been listening and learning allot of his songs the past 8 months. Save me a seat at the Tree of Forgiveness John.
what a treat. Thank you for sharing
👋😎🎶🎶🎶
Thank you!! I’ve been a fan for over 40 years, and I was lucky enough to see John sing with Steve Goodman. Even in my old age I’ll always remember it.
Got to see John dance off the stage on that last tour 😂🤣😥😭😭😭😭
Great video footage, thanks for posting this video!
Rest In Peace John Prine, you were one of a kind 😢
John Prines humble confidence shines. He knows who he is and what he gives.
Love his music
My children all heard him growing up now we all sing together on holidays
such a wonderful storyteller - Thank you John ! RIP
Thank you so much.
Thank you John . Gone too early. RIP buddy.
Awesome
Nice!
What a beautiful concert. John you were a legend and now an angel with God and more of a legend now than ever.
I remember that show so well 🥲brother you are so missed😪
Brilliant, been a fan since the first album.🎶🎶🕺
Thank you..
Aww, this is so awesome, thanks for sharing this with us! This was only about 4 years after I even knew who JP was. Please Don't Bury was one of the first two JP songs I ever heard so that was cool to hear here. (Dear Abby was the other). PS- Oh Boy people... next up- I'd pay good money for seeing the show at Levon's barn 😉🤞

I have lines and verses, fragments of John's songs, floating in my head all the time when I'm not listening to him. Thinking about stringing the hodge-podge together to make a new song. Might be a hit. John was a keen observer of life, wordsmith extraordinaire, and made some of the prettiest music all by itself. I don't own any of his albums but listen all the time on CZcams and Pandora. Just set up the first song and see where it goes from there. I never tire of his music.
Finding a John Prine gig on CZcams is gold. Sadly I'll never ever get the opportunity to see him play live in Glasgow...or indeed, anywhere else. Thanks so much for posting this. Wonderful.
Thank you
OMG. Thank you. I sang along with all the songs loudly!!
❤
Thank you for posting this. Nothing like some John Prine. His music was a true gift to the world.
Que gran concierto de un trovador norteamericano muy poco difundido en nuestro país (Chile). La verdad son la mediocridad de los disjokey criollos que nos basurean con sus miserables estilos musicales. Pero para eso esta la INTERNET y así poder acceder a estos grandes exponentes musicales que en mi modesta opinión junto a Bob D., Bruce S., Joan B. cierran mi circulo de gusto musical. Gracias por compartir este Show del gran J.P. y QED (RIP).
I miss you John......
love your videos ordered several of John's CDS
The guitarist is damn good too. Nice mandolin performance too.
In the last song he tops Crazy Horse at their own game in such an effortless way!
John's spirit lives on!
the best xxx
Hello in there. Love Love Love..
Genus
Before his cancer fight...wonderful
Never be another like him
one great thing that John Prine was able to do: TALK LIKE A WESTERN KENTUCKIAN! there are not many famous/semi-well known people able to do that!
