wrote a song about him this morning but idk if it feels too opportunistic/cheap to post

 

I want to hear it

 

I also wanna hear it

 

Making music, writing songs, its like deep breathing. its what u gotta do in hard times

 

i’ll try to record it after work

 

if I've never listened to Prine before would the debut be a good place to start?

 

Yes that’s the best place and arguably his best record. I really love Bruised Orange, Sweet Revenge, and The Missing Years after that. Then throw Tree of Forgiveness on top

 

here's the song. not a great singer, but whatever

 

Good job on the song man.

 

i threw it up on bandcamp for free. but if you want to make a donation, 100% of it will go to the three non-profits john's wife mentioned in her statement.

When John Prine Died (acoustic demo), by Patrick Haynes

 

god dammit

 

i love it

 

So true. An absolute masterpiece. Thirteen songs on one album that are each better than most songwriters will write in their entire life.

Lee Konitz, jazz saxophonist with 75-year career, dies of coronavirus aged 92

 

FALLING IN REVERSE Guitarist Derek Jones Dies

 

Fuck, I just read his fiancé passed away last November.

 

shit. his stuff with the good the bad and the queen was great too

 

rip cady groves she was 30

 

So crazy...

 

Shit, that's awful. I've always had a soft spot for The Life of a Pirate. That's far too young.

 

This is shocking and sad news. I didn’t listen to her but her name and face are so familiar, like I remember her being one of the up and coming female artists in the “scene” if you will. I know she opened for All Time Low at one point, but I feel like she collaborated on a song I loved back in like 2010/2011 but can’t remember it or with who.
I’ll keep her and her family and friends in my prayers

EDIT: I could be totally thinking of a different artist collab, but still, at 30 and unexpected is tragic
