🐇 🎄 🎶 5 2020 was never looking like it was going to be a great year but then Covid19 made sure it would not be. John Prine was an early victim.

Damien Robitaille covers Christmas in Prison. Here is the original. Bonus: Christmas 2018, John Prine playing for George Stroumboulopoulos's House of Strombo.

John Prine's death hit me hard. He was an amazing songwriter, who had an ability to hit emotions in me I didn't know were there. I only saw him live once, and I'm glad I did.

I have always been struck by how human all the characters in his songs seem. It feels like I know these people.
