When I first heard John Prine’s stuff back around 1972, I knew that I had found a lifelong musical friend.  John’s first record had more great songs on it than any first effort that I know of.  Here is what was on John Prine’s debut album:  “Illegal Smile”…”Spanish Pipedream”…”Hello in There” …”Sam Stone”…”Paradise”…”Pretty Good”…“Your Flag Decal Won’t Get You Into Heaven Anymore”…”Far from Me”…”Angel from Montgomery”…”Quiet Man”…”Donald and Lydia”…”Six O’Clock News”… and “Flashback Blues.”

The prolific, insightful, and often hilarious songwriting has not stopped and here we are some 40 years and more than two dozen albums later.  He is one of my musical heroes and he’s a good guy to boot.  I produced several John Prine concerts over the years and he is a mensch; easy to work with, happy to please, relaxed, and glad to be with you.  What more can you ask? 

Here is John’s Happy Enchilada version of “That’s The Way That The World Goes Round.”  Enjoy.  HL
