John Prine, singer, songwriter, legend - Dead at 73 from COVID-19

My sympathy goes out to his family, friends and millions of admiring fans. This makes me very sad. He was, by all accounts, a wonderful person. He will be missed.

So lucky to have seen him at the Beacon theater last year. A wonderful songwriter and great human being. I'm very sad. RIP John. Prayers to the family.
“....'cause I'm gonna have a cocktail: vodka and ginger ale....yeah, I'm gonna smoke a cigarette that's nine miles long....I'm gonna kiss that pretty girl on the tilt-a-whirl....yeah, this old man is goin' to town....” - John Prine

I hope he’s having that cocktail and cigarette.  RIP
What a tremendous loss. I had just read that he was ill last week and spent reminiscing with a friend about some of his best songs. What a great song writer with such entertainment value in his lyrics. He leaves a treasure chest of happy memories behind.
My deepest sympathies to his family and his fans as well.
