John Prine - Rolling Stone. This is a very good first album by a very good songwriter. Good songwriters are on the rise, but John Prine is differently good. His work demands some time and thought from the listener — he\'s not out to write pleasant tunes, he wants to arrest the cursory listener and get attention for some important things he has to say and, thankfully, he says them without fallinginto the common trap of writing with overtones of self- importance or smugness. His melodies are excellent. If Prine had less talent, this would have been a much easier review to write. Because of the fact that the highs show brilliance, the lows are more noticeable; he\'s a good songwriter but there are indications that he can be a great one. In his liner notes Kris Kristofferson writes of Prine: . Hopefully, age brings some mellowness, too. The stories he tells have a negative kinkiness; if pain isn\'t apparent, it\'s just below the surface. This is not to say that Prine\'s view of the grimness of life is inaccurate. He\'s certainly aware of the lonely traps people construct for themselves. It\'s just that bitterness corrodes after a time — it\'s a dead- end street for songwriters. I find it too heavily contrived, not up to Prine\'s standard. Though after seeing John perform solo at Paul Colby\'s Bitter End, accompanying himself on guitar, it\'s obvious that he can do well with or without. It\'s good to have such a fine new talent around who is both interesting and provocative. If he\'s this good this young, time should be on his side. ![]() Title: End of Watch (2012) 7.7 /10.
