American singer-songwriter John Prine reflects on a pivotal decade in his career.

American singer-songwriter John Prine reflects on a pivotal decade in his career.

A part of Chicago's folk revival, he was discovered by Kris Kristofferson, resulting in the production of Prine's self-titled debut album with Atlantic Records in 1971. The album received many positive reviews, and some hailed Prine as "the next Dylan." Bob Dylan himself appeared unannounced at one of Prine's first New York City club appearances, anonymously backing him on harmonica. Prine went on to record 6 more albums in the 70s, growing to be recognised as one of the most influential songwriters of his generation.

Also on the show, Johnnie inducts another classic record into his Jukebox and hears the stories from This Week In Music.
