John Prine was the first singer/songwriter who caught my attention when I was just starting out as a musician. I had the opportunity to see him play live at War Memorial Hall at the University of Guelph in the late seventies. He is one of the great lyric writing storytellers of our generation and continues to write and record great music releasing his latest album Tree of Forgiveness just last week.

Here's my rendition of Bruised Orange (Chain of Sorrow) from his Bruised Orange album released in 1978.
