b. USA. Prophet first attracted attention in March 1983 on joining Los Angeles band Green On Red. His exciting, highly skilled, technique added a new dimension to this already excellent group, although critics initially dubbed his work derivative of Neil Young. Successive releases by the group established Prophet as one of the era's finest musicians, whose skills were enhanced through jams with the cream of San Francisco's rock fraternity. In 1990 the artist released Brother Aldo, a largely country rock selection. This superior set featured several vocal duets with Prophet's partner Stephanie Finch and included support from R&B pianist Spooner Oldham and Durocs' drummer Scott Matthews. Prophet's guitar work was, however, also prominent, particularly on "Scarecrow", the album's most intense offering. Following Green On Red's demise in 1992, Prophet was able to concentrate on his solo career, establishing himself as one of the most acclaimed singer-songwriters of the 90s. He has collaborated with several legendary songwriters, including Jim Dickinson, Billy Swan and Bob Neuwirth. In 1997, Prophet delivered Homemade Blood, a live studio set that contains several of his finest songs to date. He made an excellent contribution to Kelly Willis' 1998 album What I Deserve.
