#424 – DEAR ABBY – John Prine - 3/30/2020

An American Treasure: John Prine. If you are fortunate enough to not yet been personally affected by COVID-19 this one may shake you as it did me. John has hospitalized and is in critical condition suffering from the virus that is on all of our lips. John is one of my favorite songwriters. He has been for a long, long, long time – since the first time I heard DEAR ABBY. It was the very first Prine song I’d ever heard and have been hooked ever since. For those of you who no longer read newspapers, the title may be lost on you. DEAR ABBY was an advice columnist in many of the country’s daily newspapers. Readers would send in letters with their requests for advice and Abby would dish out her particular brand of wisdom.

This week in my attempt to send out good thought to John & his family, I am going to post some of my favorite of Prine’s songs. Stay strong, John. This world is
A far more interesting and positive place with you in it.
