How Lucky - John Prine 1980 (stereo)

I feel better every time I hear this. Maybe not the best-known Prine song, but definitely one of my favorites (lots of good ones to pick from!).

John Burns Band and Poor Richards in Skokie/Evanston. Didn't get much better than that.

Prime Prine is the first album of his I bought, loved every song on that album, just love listening to his songs of good ole homegrown family life and living.

great video, back yard promo.

been listining to JP for 35 years loved him first time I heard him. know all the words to his songs! and tell everyone how great he is.

Great song, great vid. ..its missin Howard Levy on harp though!!

i first heard john when i was14. my dad's buddy who drinks alot left prime prine in the cassette deck of his boat radio which was unfloatable, and it played over and over for at least 24 hours. i think the fire went out before the tape came out. i was hooked and the music i learned on the acoustic and the records i bought from there on reflect to this day the greatness that isprine. i'm from southern ohio and met a girl from detroit. when i met her dad i found he was a big prine fan.good family

"Prime Prine" was a great way of introducing yourself to his music!  I learned to play guitar by listening to his records and in recent years tried to thank him for that, but I don't think my message ever actually reached him.

Ha! "my dad's buddy who drinks a lot..." Prine would love that.

So true. A buddy of mine, a die-hard Stones and AC/DC fan, listened to a Prine CD I'd burned for him a number of years ago, and has since become a huge John Prine fan.
