Your frequent mention of Prine made me want to hear him. But that was a while ago. But the other day a friend of mine gave me a CD of him, which I listened to on Saturday. The Missing years. And after searching a bit I found out it's from 1990. I thought it was from the 70s. But it was very good. And I also found out it won that year's Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk album. And I also saw at my friend's house this one. She gave it to me because she already had it on vinyl.

Both as songwriter and singer you hardly can go wrong with him ....

This is the unreleased 1981 album produced by Rodgers/Edwards.  It sounds like a cross between Chic album and a good Al Jarreau album (Rodgers/Edwards/Thompson play all the songs, and Rodgers/Edwards wrote them all), and it's pretty great.  Columbia buried it against Mathis's objections (he really liked it), and it was not rediscovered for a quarter century.  

Columbia released it as a RSD special in 2018, and Real Gone Music released it on CD in 2019.  I have it in the giant Columbia Mathis box (which is a stunningly beautiful set).  Would have been interesting to see what would have happened had Columbia released it in '81.

A Sentimental Education

 

I like that one a lot!  Have a signed copy on my shelf.  There's also a companion EP of original songs called A Place of Greater Safety.  I thought I had that too but can't find it now that I'm looking.  Jeez.

Joni Mitchell: Court and Spark. Such a great album and it stands the test of time. The Laurel Canyon Movement produced a lot of timeless music.
