Our Take

John Prine's self-titled debut album is a delightful serving of folky Americana that is as charming as a cup of tea on a rainy day. Prine's dry wit and storytelling prowess shine through on tracks like "Sam Stone" and "Angel from Montgomery", proving that he is not just a musician, but a masterful raconteur.

From the moment the opening chords of "Illegal Smile" hit your ears, you know you're in for a treat. Prine's laid-back vocals and clever lyrics are a breath of fresh air in a genre that can sometimes take itself too seriously. The album's stripped-back production allows Prine's songwriting to take center stage, with every word landing with precision and poignancy.

Tracks like "Paradise" and "Hello in There" showcase Prine's ability to tackle heavy subject matter with an unparalleled grace and sensitivity. His knack for blending humour with heartache is on full display, making for an album that is as bittersweet as a trip to the seaside in the drizzle.

Overall, John Prine's debut is a timeless classic that has only gotten better with age. Whether you're a die-hard folk fan or a casual listener looking for something to lift your spirits, this album is sure to leave you with a smile on your face and a song in your heart. John Prine may be gone, but his music will live on forever in the hearts of music lovers everywhere. Cheers, John.
