Summer's End (John Prine Cover) by Oliv'

A modest attempt at a cover of one of John Prine's many beautiful songs. I tried to come up with a finger-style melody line to accompany the vocals and to render the bridge part from the original version.
There are a number of great covers of this song. Here is my favorite:

This is one of the deepest song from John Prine. Your cover is so beautiful, with great fingerstyle playing . Bravo. Big like 32

[@olivgrove]

Thank you Zepp, for a heartwarming compliment. It makes me very happy that you liked my version of this great tune by John Prine. I was actually listening to him this very morning and thinking about covering another one of his songs.

[@richardgoodman8509]

I did not know this Prine song!

[@olivgrove]

It's a late one. Certainly very popular on TH-cam. Many people are sharing their version of it. I especially like Shawn Colvin's version and Madison Cunningham's.
