John Prine - The Singing Mailman Delivers (CD)

Specially priced double CD set of John Prine's earliest recordings, one year before his debut, with classic hits & one unreleased song. Both discs consist of recently unearthed tapes- the first disc is a August 1970 recording for John recording songs that would make up his first album at the WFMT studios in Chicago. These songs were recorded immediately after John's interview with the legendary Studs Terkel. Disc 2 is a live set from November 1970-featuring versions of many of the same songs-recorded during John's residency at Chicago's Fifth Peg. Both discs are amazing finds and a perfect for celebrating the 40th Anniversary of John Prine's recorded debut.
