Editorial Reviews
Product Description
John Prine returns to the world of studio recording with in Spite of Ourselves, his first new Oh Boy release in nearly five years. Teaming with Iris DeMent, Lucinda Williams, Emmylou Harris, Melba Montgomery, Patty Loveless, Trisha Yearwood, Dolores Keane and Connie Smith. Produced by longtime Prine collaborator Jim Rooney, "In Spite of Ourselves" juxtaposes Prine with three generations of traditional music's sweetest female voices and hearkens back to a time when cheating was as much a part of the lyrical equation as happily ever after.
Review
"The theme linking these honky-tonk standards and obscurities is fidelity, or the lack thereof, served up with a double shot of wry." -- Rolling Stone

John Prine's choices of singing partner - often with his own songs - always produced cohesive, really enjoyable results.
Fondly remembered - sadly no longer with us - R.I.P.
saying, I've done that, Hey that's me, I remember that. What can anyone say about the music
of John Prine. What a Writer and Singer. I never rate anyone as Excellent but John Prine is
knocking on that door. I Have No Complaints.
After my first couple play-throughs, I still wasn't sure what to think: this wasn't exactly the John Prine I'd been listening to for years. His voice is certainly a little rough around the edges. And this IS a cover album (but is worth the price for the title track alone), which isn't the normal John Prine speed.
Then I realized that I never really like Prine for his voice, rather for his heart and his wit. And both are here in spades on this album. This is a GREAT collection of songs, sung by a fabulous man and some truly awesome women. There is more quality lurking in this album than many other artists can muster in a lifetime. I can't think of another performer with the real American soul of John Prine, and here he shows us a side of it that many have never seen before. It is a revelation and a blessing.
Buy this CD. After hearing it, you'll never regret it.
