Rolling Stone caught up with Prine in New York shortly before the album's release [referring to Diamonds in the Rough]. The opening paragraph of Ed McCormack's story described Prine on stage at the Bitter End, halfway through a six-night stand, calling out for a special guest: 'Whar's that harmonica player?' The 'nervously nondescript figure' who joined him was none other than Bob Dylan.
Many tough days have been made better by Mr. Prine, the influential singer and songwriter with a gift for articulating moments almost beyond words. His songs have won the respect of Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Pink Floyd, the Library of Congress, you name it. One admirer, Bob Dylan, once described his canon as 'pure Proustian existentialism' and 'Midwestern mind trips to the nth degree.'
'We join the world in mourning the passing of revered country and folk singer/songwriter John Prine,' the Recording Academy said in a written statement. 'Widely lauded as one of the most influential songwriters of his generation, John's impact will continue to inspire musicians for years to come. We send our deepest condolences to his loved ones.'
