R.I.P. John Prine. You've left behind quite a legacy.

 

Yes, I'm very sad to hear about the passing of John Prine, especially as Covid-19 complications took him from the world before his time. I was fortunate enough to see him perform several times -- often the free open-air concerts on summer evenings at Ontario Place. His music always hit the right notes with me, whether listening to the poignant message of Sam Stone or the funny, uplifting lyrics of Dear Abby. I'll have a drink and strum a couple of his tunes of the guitar tonight in fond memory of the man who Rolling Stone magazine appropriately proclaimed in 2017 to be "The Mark Twain of American song writing". That's quite a distinctive honor and one that's truly fitting.  He'll be missed by many fans.
