I picked up on Lightfoot in about 1975, and Prine by 1977. Prine's new work is as strong as any he's done. Saw him in Roanoke, VA last year...much better show than the drunken show when I first saw him at the EXIT/IN in Nashville in late 70s.
I heard "Ain't Hurtin' Nobody" on the radio while traveling and pulled into the first shopping mall I came to on the Interstate to buy the album right then...the only time I've done anything like that!
