We lost a great one...

[sleigh]

 This is not one I ever wanted to do for this series, but given that we lost John Prine to the coronavirus yesterday, it feels necessary...  I know that better singers and far better-known artists than me are going to be doing John Prine tributes today and over the coming days, but this is a song I regularly perform when I'm playing solo, and it's my absolute favorite Prine tune. It both reminds me that I too am growing older, and it also makes me recall visiting my late mother in her assisted living facility at the end of her life and seeing her looking at me without recognition in her eyes.  So... "Hello In There."

John, we'll miss you and your incredible talent!
