Souvenirs (John Prine album)

AllMusic critic Zac Johnson wrote that "John Prine's contemporary touches on these old favorites may provide new insights, but the new versions rarely surpass the originals."[1] Country Standard Time called the album "an endearing, entertaining stopgap for fans waiting to hear new gems from this talented songwriter."[8] The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette called it "a gem," writing that the songs exist "in their spare, acoustic glory with only the rough edges of Prine’s voice to guide you."[9] The Irish Times called it "a stunning reminder" of "Prine's consistently intelligent take on how to tell a story."[10]
