Music » Country-fried folk singer-songwriter John Prine will perform at Red Butte Garden on Aug. 19. Just in time, the wicked singer with a twangy croak releases a live acoustic album, "In Person & On Stage." The generous 72-minute, 14-track collection features appearances with Emmylou Harris, Josh Ritter, Sara Watkins and Iris Dement, and includes songs from his eponymous 1971 debut to his 2005 album "Fair and Square," which won a Grammy. These gorgeously-recorded songs are deceptively simple, always with a wry twist to make sure you'll still listening. And listen, with delight, you will. -- David Burger
