Seeing him w/them, Prine or Jethro had to be a dream come true...
I've probably posted this before, but I saw him @ Canal Street Tavern when "Artistic Hair" came out (he was selling/autographing copies there). Had tickets for both shows. During the second show, when folks called out requests, he said, "I did those in the first show. I don't want the folks here for both shows to hear repeats. The only tune I'll repeat is 'City'". A genuine class act...
Also, there's a website called "CV.Org" that has a blue million concerts downloaded for your listening (and occasional viewing) pleasure. They've got some Goodman and a few Prine...a real find...
