John Prine

Damn, he died tonight, complications from the Corona Virus.

IMO, one of our greatest singer songwriters, an icon, and a national treasure.

From his debut album - Hello In There:
Ya' know that old trees just grow stronger
And old rivers grow wilder ev'ry day
Old people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello"

What a loss. Such humanity his music conveyed. I will continue to treasure his music.

Edit: Thanks for the song clips. When his condition was reported to have improved from critical to stable a week or so a go, I thought "wow", maybe he's going to make it, even with all the health conditions he had/has.

Another loss to the big band in the sky. May he RIP....
