Hello In There (John Prine) collaboration (jordanthecat & cefdad)

When I think of John Prine I see him sitting on those hay bales...every song that is on that album is gold. This is the song that made me a fan. Souvenirs made me a "lifer." I think the first time I heard them I was 2 or 3 years old. Even then I knew...thanks Dad for taping those headphones to my ears. Thanks John for being there all these years. I will never be able to re-pay either of you. This is an Internet collaboration of Hello In There - performed by jordanthecat (on guitar) and cefdad (keyboards and vocal).

A beautiful 'home movie' of the greatest song about aging ever written. I'm sure John would be proud of this and I hope he's seen it. The song was always full of imagery and this captures it as I think we all see it. I've been trying to play this song for twenty years and all the faithful and heartfelt versions of it on youtube inspire me to keep trying. Thankyou guys and thanks to John Prine, a master storyteller.

@PhilBaird1 Thank you Phil. Comments like this keep us all going. Ian's guitar is impeccable on this, he truely has the roll down. And I just tried not to screw it up. This one was important to do "the best possible" and we are pretty proud of it too. Like you say, I hope John thinks it is alright. Keep practicing and post something...I am sure the love that you have shared will be returned.

I just stopped by to have another listen to us. We sound pretty okay, I think- you put this little project of ours together very well!

[cefdad]

Thanks Ian. It is my favorite of all of the videos that I have posted. It came from a place I have trouble getting to...I wish I had mixed it a little differently, the piano is too loud and the guitar and vocal are too soft but you know what they say about hindsight. I am glad that you think that it is okay.
