I can’t just say, “Well, this is my favorite,” because the next John Prine song I hear will probably inspire the same thought.
Very personal song for John about the impending disintegration of his marriage to Rachel Peer-Prine, and that’s her playing bass and singing backup in the live perf.
Play this through headphones or a stereo or something, if you can.
I’m sorry to say Rachel is gone too.
