I was deeply saddened to read the news this morning of the passing of Dan Fogelberg from prostate cancer.
He was truly one of the great, unappreciated, singer/songwriters of the 70's and his melodic style captivated thousands of fans.
His music was a part of my teenage years in the 70's and I felt sad that a part of my youth passed away with this wonderful man.
So talented, so wonderful....and at 56 was WAY too young to die.
RIP Dan and thank you for the wonderful music.
Here's a clip of him singing the song "Leader of the band" which he wrote as a tribute to his dad.

And his greatest hit: "Longer"
