Hi, folks... In case you're not aware of him, there's an American folk hero whose music is very special. His songs come as close as anyone I'm aware of to capturing the soul of the American ethos. This particular clip is from a CD of the same name, In Spite of Ourselves, a delightful set of duets recorded with a half dozen or so female singers including Iris DeMent, Trisha Yearwood, Connie Smith, Emmylou Harris, Dolores Keane, Patty Loveless, Melba Montgomery and Fiona Prine. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. I've been carrying this particular CD (as well as seven or eight other John Prine CD's) around for about ten years... I'll never tire of listening to it.
By the way, I stole this from Be Not Inhospitable To Strangers. Check it out, Scot's a great poet.

Thanks Bob
Hey just to let you know how small the world is--I stayed in Moberly several times--forgot the hotel at the main intersection9 in fact stayed in two of them) going out of town--but before I got into education I worked construction for about 15 years--Thomas Hill Power Plant was one I worked on. caught a few fish there too...
THIS IS GREAT. Ripping it off this minute and taking it on down to my blog (with acknowledgement, of course.)
Scot-- They tore down one of those hotels and the other moved just east of town. I don't know what that says about us... ha!
Lee-- Isn't he something special? Just google his name and you'll find a couple of sites that offer the lyrics to his songs. He's a poet... no doubt about it.
The one I love, love, love, cliche though it may be, is him and bonnie raitt doing that gorgeous classic, 'Angel of Montgomery'.
What a wonderful song.
