Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

John Prine has written songs that have become central to the American musical heritage. This former Maywood, Illinois mailman came to prominence with his debut record, "John Prine" in 1971, which includes classics like, "Angel From Montgomery", "Sam Stone", "Paradise", and "Hello in There." His lyrics speak to the everyday experience of ordinary people, with a simple honesty and an extraordinary ability to connect with the Heart. His songs have been recorded by many other performers, among them, Johnny Cash, Bonnie Raitt, Bette Midler, Carly Simon, Tammy Wynette, Don Williams, George Strait, My Morning Jacket, Justin Vernon, Norah Jones and Miranda Lambert. In this book, John Prine curates a selection of his best loved songs. Included are lyrics, guitar chords, commentary from John, and over 100 photographs - many never before published - from his personal collection.
