Title Note

Recorded at the Chicago Recording Company, Chicago, Illinois from January to March 1978. Includes original liner notes and artwork.

Prine rode out the '70s by merely allowing his deceptively simple songs speak for themselves. After being heralded as the Second Coming, the new Dylan, and the prince of all folk singers great and small, he got back to basics with longtime buddy and fellow songwriter-producer Steve Goodman. BRUISED ORANGE sweeps away every particle of unnecessary debris, resulting in Prine's most affecting release since his auspicious debut. The secret is in the simplicity. "Fish and Whistle" illuminates the everyday affairs of car washes, shoveling snow, and chasing women with economical humor.

There's nary a wasted word or guitar line in the song, or the entire album, for that matter. Prine is a writer devoid of cynicism, preferring the more rewarding road of wry observation and embracing the absurdity of existing in a topsy-turvy world. It's summed up perfectly with "Sabu Visits the Twin Cities Alone," in which the famed elephant boy embarks on a disastrous tour of the mid-west in hopes of reviving his flagging movie career. Instead of bleating over his own middling commercial recognition, Prine turns the fickle business of entertainment on its head and leaves self-pity and sour grapes in the dust.
