This guy actually knew the songs, and asked him about the writing process. The great thing is that he seemed to want to hear the answers as much as I did.

Dickerson WOULD NOT BE IN PRINES HOME UNLESS PRINE KNEW EXACTLY WHO HE WAS.John is totally unique.I love him since the seventies.

My first John Prine concert was in '92 at Swayed Pines in St. Joe MN. I was 9 years old. I saw him sitting on a stool behind the stage and asked my dad if we could go meet him. We walked over and I told him I was his biggest fan. His response was "you're probably my youngest fan!" He was drinking a Pigs Eye beer and smoking a camel. He signed my shirt with a bic pen and gave me a hug. 15 years later I was able to meet him again in Duluth. My autograph had faded over the years so he grabbed a sharpie and signed it again. I told him I just got an A in my history of rock and roll class in college because of the paper I wrote about him. He wrote down an address and asked me to send him a copy. Such an amazing man! Memories I will cherish forever.

My favorite interview with such a humble and wonderful man....John Prine. I was involved in the folk music scene in college, and my first gig after graduating was at the Fifth Peg Pub in Chicago with John in 1970. It was his first gig as well and we shared the stage for a few months, alternating sets on weekends. My favorite part of that gig was after the crowd went home and the night was over, John would get back up and sing songs he was working on, as the owner and I sat mesmerized by his creative genius. Sometimes my parents would come to the gigs from Indiana, and we all became his after-hours audience, hearing new songs for the first time that he was working on. One of my favorites that he was in the process of writing at the time for his first wife, Ann Carole, called "Aw Heck" ("My Woman") always made us laugh out loud. My parents loved John. What memories! John was truly a unique human being and it was such a blessing to have known him. He will be greatly missed.

What a precious and wonderful time. Thank you John Dickerson and CBS for this amazing look into the life of an American icon. Prayers for John and Fiona today.

Thank you for posting this interview. Prine has moved my soul since about 1972/73? It is true his songs bring me joy and tears. I am not much of a music person but I have seen John maybe five times now. There were times I thought my sister and I were the only ones to get him, great to be so wrong. It is like seeing an old friend and he is the person I paid to see that the audience sings every song, and I love it! Must be like being a dead head? Power of Prine,The young people get him so he will live on for years to come. He is a national treasure to me.

You have moved on to Your next adventure. I am so very grateful to have been around to enjoy Your beautiful gift. Thank You for sharing you with all of Us...

This is a loss for the world of music for sure. Glad I got to see him live in December. It will always be a treasured memory of an amazing artist.

This is the beauty of humanity. Thank You John and John - a wonderful program.

Really wonderful interview with John Prine. It was as close to being there as one could get. I felt like an old friend visiting him. Amazing stuff, a true piece of great Americana with one of our most iconic national treasures. I liked it all but driving in the car was priceless.

Great interview with a true legend.

John Dickerson looks absolutely in his glory being with John, as he should. Awesome interview John. Well both John's. Well done.

Whether he is talking or singing; a great story always comes out.

We're all rooting for you John, hang in there mate.

Great piece John. Thanks for the music John. The honest and the quirky. Like and respect both of you.

It's obvious the interviewer was and is a large fan of Prine. If you watch all of the interview, you'll see it. Anyway, CBS Sunday Morning is the best thing on TV. They are masters of bringing off great stories and interviews. They are left wing and I happen to be right, but many times they hit the middle. It's a rare thing, but I do enjoy the many stories and interviews that they do. Some have brought me to tears. This one was one of them. A lot of actual admiration from the interviewer in this. I can concur. Prine is one of the greatest artists of our world. Well done

It was great to fall upon the entire 90 minutes of John's interview with John. RIP JP.

The best is now gone, and a million hearts ache. Goodbye Mr. Prine, and thank you, thank you, thank you.

What an absolutely stellar interview. Well done to the interviewer. And of course the great Mr. Prine.

I really have to give it up for the interviewer guy here. He came so well prepared for John's music that he knew what John was saying before he said it. Later, he played guitar with John. He is so lucky, but also deserved the luck he garnered. Excellent interview the whole way through... and what a finish. I should be so lucky. All thumbs up to John and the CBS guy... Ol Sarge...

Absolutely amazing, best thing I've seen about any musician. Prines just so humble and down to earth.

Been a Jp fan since I was little. Dad got me into him. He said that when I was little and heard him say a bad word I'd say "don't say that daddy. Little pictures have big ears" lol

RIP gentle man

"If I pick long enough, I'll go into a John Prine song" Lol!! I love this guy...Ol Sarge...

RIP John, your heart is bigger than ever now.. we miss you already
