The Big Picture by Lennie Peterson for April 08, 2020

He wrote a ton of fine tunes.

These things tend to come in threes (deaths of artists, actors, etc).

Lennie, stay safe!

. . . very sad times. :’(

. . . enjoy his music.

Sorry for your loss.

Loved “Angel from Montgomery”

Sh-t. That sucks. :’(

So sad!!

If you don’t die, everyone you know does.

Wonderful Tribute (as usual) Lennie…don’t forget Beverly Cleary turns 104 Sunday.

Great tribute to a great artist. Excellent likeness of him too Lennie – you nailed that smile!

One of my favorites ‘Souvenirs’: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xhmPectY9UHe did some fine duet work with Steve Goodman too.

:_( Rest in Peace Mr. Prine. I found his music in 1978 and never looked back. Thank you Lenny.

John Prine – Paradise https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjk09-pw9noAhWol3IEHQiXCJQQyCkwAHoECBYQBQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D2fm6YSCOxQk&usg=AOvVaw1Ncc1koPpT7VvVT08WR1nj

Sad to hear that. I must admit I had heard the name but couldn’t tell you a single song he had written or sung. Something I will have to look into. I went from listening to the Beatles, Herman’s Hermits etc, briefly listened to 70’s and early 80’s music, then country till “young country” took over. Now it’s classic rock for me.

We never lose those that pass on and they always will be with us, no matter how short a time we may have known them. What a gift John Prine has left each of us. That will live forever.

Thank you Lennie for this remembrance of John Prine. His passing is so very sad. His last release was just as good as all the others.

I’m so sorry.
