Dan Fogelberg dies at 56

[3afan]

you younguns may not be familiar with the great Dan Fogelberg, but he died today after a battle with cancer :(

DF was one of the best musicians, songwriters ever --- on several of his early albums he did all of the instruments and all of the vocals ... a true musical genius

RIP ...

The story line in "Same Old Lang Syne", touches something in the heart and memory of just about anyone over 25.

And felt that old familiar pain "

I was so sad to hear this news. He was probably my favorite singer of all time. I have just about all of his cd's.

I was fortunate to have seen him in concert in Dallas back in 2003. I have a poster of him in my room which was taken of him in 1974. RIP, Dan.

The leader of the band has died
and his eyes are growing old
but his blood runs through my instrument
and his song is in my soul

My life has been a poor attempt
to imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy
to the leader of the band



Rest In Peace my good friend:(

I am a young gun and I have some of his music on my ipod.

The higher you climb, the more that you see
The more that you see, the less that you know
The less that you know, the more that you yearn
The more that you yearn, the higher you climb
