Very sad.  

We are losing so many.  and that is way too young.

We can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. But the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyzes: “I am talking with you in order to persuade you.” No. Each person dialogues, starting with his and her own identity. The church grows by attraction, not proselytizing.    - Pope Francis

Isn't that the truth.  It's been a very unnerving year for celebrity deaths sigh...

He was such a great story teller in his songs. As a yute I remember trying to sing and romance a couple of ladies to Longer, but he had such a wide vocal range.

For those of you who are wondering "who?", here are a couple of his songs you might recognize.

Well, Joe, it's pretty much a given that, anytime someone dies and you, EB, or I are the first to comment on it, it is someone who was popular before most of the kids here were born.   18.gif

I don't think that is a secret to anyone here  3.gif

I have vague memories of EB having mentioned Fogelberg's name once before, but otherwise, I have no knowledge of this guy.  Didn't know the music you posted either.

Some of them seem to be very well educated in musical matters.   Others, not so much.

    Good music stands the test of time and is generaly avalible to todays kids, more so then it was to us.

    the only thing that helps me maintain my slender grip on reality is the friendship I share with my collection of singing potatoes.
