Prine drops new video
Created By Neighborhoods Apart Productions, the video was directed and animated by Josh Britt and Neilson Hubbard.
"Crazy Bone" is from Prine's "The Tree of Forgiveness," which debuted at number 5 on the Billboard 200 chart with over 54,000 equivalent albums sold in its first week-a career high chart position and sales week for Prine.
Released on his own independent label, Oh Boy Records, the album is Prine's first album featuring new material in over 13 years and was produced by Grammy Award winning producer Dave Cobb.
The new animated video follows the official clip for "Knockin' On Your Screen Door," which premiered last month.
Prine currently is touring with a newly confirmed New Year's Eve show at Nashville's Opry House with Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats and special guest Iris DeMent.

After all, this is a man who has survived lung cancer and squamous cell cancer, the latter of which took a toll on his vocal cords. He's also had two knee replacements and a hip replacement. "All the TSA guys know me," jokes the legendary 71-year-old singer-songwriter. There are odes to the Almighty ("Boundless Love") and reflections on human limitations ...
With "For Better or Worse," John Prine follows up his "In Spite of Ourselves" album with more male/female duets. And this one is a true A-list effort, as it finds Prine trading lines with the likes of Miranda Lambert, Kacey Musgraves and Alison Krauss. Once again, though, Iris DeMent steals the show with the angry and sarcastic "Who's Gonna Take the Garbage Out," the same way she did with the prior album's title cut. She's a worthy sparring partner, ...
John Prine holds a well-deserved spot in the songwriters' pantheon. So, it's always a bit disappointing when a new Prine release isn't stocked with new Prine songs. After producing 7 albums between 1971-1980, he has only made a handful of albums of originals since then, although he has done a couple covers projects, the "Souvenirs" re-recordings album, a Christmas disc and now his third live album.
