John Prine - John Prine (180 Gram LP Vinyl)

John Prine is the debut album that announced one of America’s most distinctive songwriting voices. Originally released in 1971, it pairs everyday language with sharp observation, humour, and empathy, creating songs that feel simple on the surface but linger long after they end. Prine’s writing avoids grand gestures, instead finding meaning in ordinary lives and quiet moments.

This album marked the beginning of a long and influential career, introducing songs that would become touchstones of modern folk and Americana. Featuring “Illegal Smile,” “Hello In There,” “Sam Stone,” and “Angel From Montgomery,” it remains a defining statement of Prine’s approach, inviting the listener in rather than talking over them. This 2020 reissue presents the album on heavyweight vinyl, pressed in Holland for a clean and consistent listening experience.
