Steve Goodman - "City of New Orleans"

Man was brilliant, his song - a bud of John Prine. We lost hima long time ago....he loved the Cubs.....in his own way.

2. Goodman was responsible for John Prine being discovered when he was.

Kris Kristofferson heard Goodman at a coffee house and was eager to sign him (of course). And Goodman basically said, "If you think I'm good, you should hear this friend of mine" and that's how Prine's got signed to a label.

That's the story I read, anyway, as told by Kristofferson.

3. 2 really great folkies.

My favorite Steve Goodman tune.....nailed his reality. Were some of his ashes buried at home? I hope so.
