The Missing Years, John Prine's 10th studio album, came out on September 24, 1991, on Oh Boy Records, the independent label he had co-founded a decade earlier, with Howie Epstein producing. It's folk and alt-country with the Prine touch, that knack for pairing wry, funny takes on love and everyday life with sweet songs and melancholy ballads, and "All the Best" is in the mix.
It won the Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk Album. In July 2003 Oh Boy put out a deluxe vinyl edition with a bonus track, "The Third of July", taken from his 2001 appearance on the PBS concert series Sessions at West 54th.
