John Prine - German Afternoons [LP]

John Prine - German Afternoons [LP]

John Prine's 1986 albumĀ German AfternoonsĀ was his second release on Oh Boy Records, the independent label he formed with his manager Al Bunetta, and delves further into the country-flavored sound established on his 1984 releaseĀ Aimless Love.Ā LikeĀ Aimless Love, German AfternoonsĀ was co-produced by Nashville veteran Jim Rooney but also features contributions from the progressive bluegrass band New Grass Revival, and this accounts for Prine's return to the folk-sound of his early albums on songs like "Lulu Walls" and "Paradise", the latter a rerecording of the self-penned classic which appeared on the singer's debutĀ John PrineĀ in 1971. Perhaps the most significant song that appears onĀ German AfternoonsĀ is "The Speed of the Sound of Loneliness", which became a concert staple and an instant classic for many Prine devotees.
Ā 

German AfternoonsĀ received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Contemporary Folk Recording.
