Free Music Review: For those who can't get enough Prine ...
Hit: 5 Stars
In Person & On Stage is a curious patchwork of live recordings that is sure to please the Prine faithful. Indeed, we could endlessly debate the merits of the song choices: Why "Paradise" and not "Far From Me"? "Lake Marie" would sure be nice, as would "Dear Abby." "Mexican Home" is always welcome. "Saddle in the Rain" ... thank you.
But this is not a greatest hits album and I don't think it was intended to be. It's a solid release from a lawn-chair philosopher who has a knack for seeing things we all see but don't know how to put into words. As Prine fans know, he has the ability to make you chuckle and your eyes well up all in the same song. Few artists can achieve this. But John Prine is more than just lyrics. His between-songs banter is cherished as much as the tunes themselves. On that, the album delivers, although John's storytelling voice sounds aged and gruff. Instrumentally, the music is seasoned and pleasant, and John's singing voice belies his age.
On several of the songs, John is backed up by the likes of Iris Dement, Emmylou Harris and others. I, myself, think the accompanying vocals at times sound a little whiny. But, you can be the judge on that.
If you're new to John Prine, don't start here. Get his first album (the one where he's sitting on hay bales) and Sweet Revenge, then John Prine Live (1988).
As for the rest of us, we'll keep following you, John, no matter how humble the distance.
In Person & On Stage Poster

Clocking in at just over 72 minutes and featuring songs that span his career from his eponymous debut album to his 2005 Grammy Award winning "Fair and Square," this album captures the essence of what Prine fans crave from a live performance.Folk Music CDs
