I read today, with great sadness, of the passing of Dan Fogelberg, one of the great singer-songwriters of the 1970's and 80's. As someone who listened to and played his music for countless hours during that time period, I believe his music deeply touched many of us.Today, I feel profound sense of loss with his passing.
Here is a link to Rhapsody where you can click on many of his songs. http://www.rhapsody.com/danfog...anfogelberg?tstart=0 |

Ah yes, I loved his music, too. "Leader of the Band" is one of my all-time favorites.
I see he died of prostate cancer. Too bad! He was only 56. |

He was a great at capturing images and writing compelling stories. He was also much underrated as a musician. I loved the "Twin Sons" albums - mostly instrumental, but one also had a great cover of Judy Collin's "Since You've Asked."
I also loved all his early stuff. Also the �High Country Snows� album, which had a bluegrass feel to it. Here's one of my favorites - "Scarecrow's Dream" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...Uw3k&feature=related -----------------and a couple more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...OGS8&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...AfT0&feature=related --------------------- |
