This is my single favorite YouTube musical treat. Have prob watched it 500 times. If only I had the skill to do 1/1,000 of what these dudes had going on.

Sublime. Duane supposedly was the great virtuoso guitarist but Betts was great in his own right, and nobody can sing that particular genre like Gregg. I can't find it now but there's another version with just the two of them which is wonderful.

One of my You Tube favorites.

Love this version with John Prine who wrote the song.

"Live from Darryl's House" is also a great choice for listening to some great songs.

They perform it together here. There's also a version with Jackson Browne out there.

I never understood the lyrics, but they work.

Tragically, Prine died early in the pandemic. Very interesting character for sure.

John just wrote about everyday life things. He could take something ordinary, something that happened everyday to each and everyone of us and make a song out of it.
Talented beyond believe and a song writer, who, imo, will never be replaced nor replicated.

I saw Bonnie Raitt sing this live and it was enough to just about bring a grown man to tears. Susan Tedeschi also does a great job on the song (and the flute solo by Kofi Burbridge is wonderful.)

I am a big Jason Isbell fan. I think he is one of the greatest songwriters today. When talking about songwriting, he has mentioned that a 25 year old Prine writing and singing "Angel from Montgomery" from the perspective of an older woman was a revelation and, in no small part, informs his writing.

"Sam Stone"
One of Johns best written songs, of many, and one of the saddest songs about the Vietnam War.
