A National Treasure

My love affair with John Prine began in 1988 after my good buddie, Leah Fietsam, took me to one of his concerts in Chicago. She thought I would like his music and boy was she right. In my opinion, John Prine is one of our country's greatest song writers (maybe THE greatest). Apparently, I am not the only person who has this opinion. He was recently honored by the National Library of Congress for his songwriting. Whenever he is in town, I jump at the chance to go and see him. The most recent concert that we attended was in San Francisco at the Warfield. As always, he was amazing.
