I miss Jim Croce. Such a good song writer and performer.

Yep! He was the Man! Jim Croce toured constantly, trying to make ends meet after he signed a bad record deal. He died in a plane crash making up a missed date in Natchitoches La.

"Time In A Bottle", is simply timeless.

Def much better than a lot of the trash that passes for "music" this day and age

He was very soulful / real.

LOL! Same. 5*

Very true song...]

There were none better.

I saw him a month or so before he died. I can't remember what year.

A favorite song from my childhood (well I was about 11? I think) and Jim Croce is always a treasured artist within me. I've listened to it hundreds of times. I could go on and on about that time period of music. Magical, and starting with the 60's.

I have no idea what nationality he was and never even thought about it.

Only a modern OP would even bring up such an immature discussion.

Cat Stevens was the bomb during the same time and I loved his music so much and still do. Unfortunately he chose insanity.

Jim Croce was born American tho unlike Cat.
