With John Prine, it is not about what you heard in his music, it is how you plan to live your life differently because of what you heard in his music.

It's always been the goosebump And the occasional tear

It's no wonder that Bob Dylan said that this was his favourite song from John Prine's catalogue. Mr. Prine, you will be missed!

Did he say that? Do you happen to know where/what interview? I’m genuinely curious because Bob & John and this song & I are all deeply, deeply connected. I’d love to him praise John. 🖤🖤

"...Standin' by peaceful waters! AAAAAAAHHHHHHH BABY !!!"

Nobody else could've written a song about Native Americans finding white babies, a couple grilling sausages on an outdoor grill, and a murder investigation--all centered around a lake--and made it sound this good. RIP Mr. Prine. I never met you, but I'll miss you the rest of my life. A true original.

Saw John in concert a few times in Glasgow........ Amazing singer/songwriter, and a very witty gentleman.... thank you so much for the great nights John...... Sadly missed.

You will be missed by many! R.I.P. John Prine.

" shadooows"! We got to go now. Miss you much, John.

The audience certainly appreciates the greatness of John Prine!!!

I wonder if the people at this event understood that they were listening to the greatest folk song ever?

Johns having a cocktail and smokin a cigarette nine miles long . Great song awesome entertainer . RIP

The most beautiful piece of work

R.I.P. Mr Prine

John is an American treasure. IMO...best songwriter in my generation. Maybe ever.

Still hard to grasp the reality of John bouncing over a white cloud swinging the world by the tail just killing the blues...John made me say it

No one can ever do this song except the original JP....beautiful voice, incredible band....people in audience never heard such a troubadour before!

God I miss him.

Listen to the song, I believe it is called Lonesome Friends of Science. If it dose not make ya say damn in these crazy times nothing will.

I was there! I can't recall what other songs he performed. Anyone remember? Also, Levon Helm read letters from Jimmie Rodgers. First time I saw Gillian Welch and David Rawlings! What a show!

Thanks

Nice one

We were standing Standing by peaceful waters Standing by peaceful waters Whoa, ah-oh, ah-oh Many years ago Along the Illinois-Wisconsin border There was this Indian tribe They found two babies in the woods White babies One of them was named Elizabeth She was the fairer of the two While the smaller and more fragile one Was named Marie Having never seen white girls before And living on the two lakes known as the Twin Lakes They named the larger and more beautiful lake Lake Elizabeth And thus the smaller lake That was hidden from the highway Became known forever as Lake Marie We were standing Standing by peaceful waters Standing by peaceful waters Whoa, ah-oh, ah-oh Many years later I found myself talking to this girl Who was standing there With her back turned to Lake Marie The wind was blowing Especially through her hair There was four Italian sausages Cooking on the outdoor grill And they were sizzlin' Many years later We found ourselves in Canada Trying to save our marriage And perhaps catch a few fish Whatever came first That night she fell asleep in my arms Humming the tune to, "Louie Louie" Aah baby, we gotta go now We were standing Standing by peaceful waters Standing by peaceful waters Whoa, ah-oh, ah-oh Whoa, ah-oh, ah-oh The dogs were barking as the cars were parking The loan sharks were sharking, the narcs were narcing Practically everyone was there In the parking lot by the forest preserve The police had found two bodies in the woods Nay, naked bodies Their faces had been horribly disfigured by some sharp object Saw it on the news, the TV news In a black and white video You know what blood looks like in a black and white video? Shadows, shadows That's what it looks like All the love we shared between her and me was slammed Slammed up against the banks of old Lake Marie Marie We were standing Standing by peaceful waters Standing by peaceful waters Whoa, ah-oh, ah-oh Whoa, ah-oh, ah-oh Whoa, ah-oh, ah-oh Peaceful waters Standing by peaceful waters Aah, baby We gotta go now

It's a damn shame you haven't inducted him yet. The greatest songwriter of all-time should certainly be in, especially since you have people like Hall and Oates in.

It’s a badge of honor for Prine NOT to be in. It only demonstrates the complete and utter ignorance of those who choose.

"They were sssssssizzlin'!"

I think he may have played more than one song. If so please Rock & Roll Hall of Fame show them on KZread. Anyways John& the band jammed.

Tribute song for fans of John Prine by songwriter Dennis Callahan.

Anybody got the line-up of John's band here ?

how can this be from 1997? John had his neck cancer surgery in 1996. His neck looks intact and his voice hasn't changed. RIP John, you're the best

Same exceptional song, same exceptional artist, but feels hurried, as if on a time constraint. This takes away from the nuances of this singular song. Not disappointed in the song nor the artist, but I DO FEEL the event coordinators did John & this song a disservice.
