In celebration of the 30th anniversary of "Lost Dogs & Mixed Blessings", a deluxe edition of John Prine's beloved and GRAMMY-nominated album will be released via Oh Boy Records featuring five previously unreleased demos and alternate takes, along with the never-before-heard track "Hey Ah Nothin'". A long-lost gem sure to delight both longtime fans and newcomers alike, this addition offers an intimate glimpse into the album's creation and the spontaneous spirit that defined the sessions. "Lost Dogs & Mixed Blessings" is widely cherished for its warmth, wit, and depth, and this new edition provides an even closer look at one of the most joyful and creatively fertile periods in Prine's storied career.

Originally released in 1995, Lost Dogs & Mixed Blessings followed Prine's Grammy-winning album The Missing Years and further cemented his legacy as one of America's greatest songwriters. Produced by Howie Epstein of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, the album captured Prine at a personal and artistic high, filled with the joy of new love, fatherhood, and unshakable creative chemistry. Backed by an all-star ensemble including Heartbreakers pianist Benmont Tench and guest vocals from Carlene Carter and Marianne Faithfull, "Lost Dogs & Mixed Blessings" is a vibrant showcase of Prine's unmatched lyrical gifts. The album flows effortlessly from the wry contentment of "Ain't Hurtin' Nobody" to the epic storytelling of "Lake Marie," a song Bob Dylan once cited as one of his favorites. With its blend of heartfelt ballads, surreal narratives, and playful humor, "Lost Dogs & Mixed Blessings" remains one of Prine's most expansive and beloved works. At 14 tracks and nearly an hour in length, it captures the richness of the midlife experience, honest, relaxed, and fully alive. Thirty years on, this release offers a fresh invitation to revisit an album that continues to comfort, surprise, and inspire.
