It would take a stint in the U.S. Army in Germany and a job with the Post Office before John Prine would make his public debut at an "open mic" night at a local bar fueled by a few beers and the knowledge that he could do it better than everyone else he'd seen that evening. "There were all these amateurs that were getting up," Prine recalls, "and they were terrible. So I started making some comments about it and the next thing I knew somebody said, 'well, if you think you can do it better...' I said 'I could' and got up on the stage and played Sam Stone, Hello In There and Paradise and people seemed to like it." Including the club owner who promptly offered Prine a job. After asking how long he'd have to play for, he went home and wrote the rest of what was to become his first self-titled debut album. It wasn't long before a little guy from Chicago named Steve Goodman met Prine and would become his best friend as well as being responsible for bringing Kris Kristofferson to The Earl Of Old Town to see Prine...a move which would result in Prine's gaining a national label deal.
Nobody can tell a story in song like John Prine. For almost 3 1/2 decades he's been entertaining a large and loyal fan base who flock to his infrequent concert appearances. His music touches on folk, rock, bluegrass, rockabilly and Americana. If you have the chance to see him in person, take advantage of the opportunity. Great Days - The John Prine Anthology 2 CD set features 41 examples of his songwriting genius and draws from a dozen albums, with a smattering of rare tracks-compiled with the assistance of Prine, himself as well as a lavish booklet and attractive slipcase!
Great Days - The John Prine Anthology 2 CD set is brand new; it is unopened, unplayed and still in its original factory shrink wrap. He's one-of-a-kind if you're a fan and don't own this, now's the time. If you're a novice, here's the perfect introduction to one of America's finest songsmiths. Check out the 41 tracks for your self - enjoy…
