THE OCCASIONAL, CLASSIC FRIDAY NIGHT MUSIC SLOT #10

I had intended posting a different song from a different singer/songwriter tonight but then, by accident earlier today, I came across the sad news that the composer of this song had sadly died of Covid-19 at the beginning of April. After having more than his fair share of battles to overcome during his 73 years this song is a true classic. I first became aware of it way back in the early 1970's on a LP sampler. Though some of the sentiments of the words I would disagree with, it is an excellently crafted song and well delivered in his usual understated way.

RIP: John Prine. May your memory be a blessing.

And what a band

Cool as ten polar bears in a freezer

Running around robbing banks all whacked up on scooby snacks

I think they mean drugs

https://youtu.be/qHdCo9YXTOs

Godfathers , have some of that

Rock and roll

If you were of the age, then you would have been cracking a sly one off to Ms. Harry

Lodging in Staines, working at Heathrow Airport, Vienna was the popular single but Astradyne IMO the best track on the album.
