Five years ago, on June 30, 2020, Illinois named John Prine the state's first Poet Laureate. It was a posthumous honor; John passed on April 7 of that year.
His last recorded song was "I Remember Everything." Like so much of his work, it's simple, poignant, and beautiful.

We didn't completely "get" Elvis until we saw this. In the early days of cable it was a staple: The Comeback Special, first aired on NBC in June of '68. For a long time it was unavailable on digital media, but it's out there now!
