when i was younger my dad had me listening to jm croce and i thought we looked silly singing and dancing to these songs but lookin back at it now makes me soo happy that we had our one favorite singer that brought us closer:)
I was only 6 when he died but I do remember listening to him on mom & dads record player Or hearing my dad sing some of the lyrics while we fixed old cars, great memories had his greatest hits tape in my sony walkman he got me through some rough times while exploring america by thumb wish we had good music today like we had way back then....
I was born in the early 50s and got to hear this and the other great music when you listened to the radio and bought records and albums. Living during that time just added to the richness. Yes you have instant access but we got to live when one great song replaced another as they moved up the charts. We still had songs like this bouncing around in our head to this day. I am beginning to hear a few new songs worth listening too. Hope the 2010s and 2020 produce what the 50s to 90s did.
Why do people wish they were born in previous decades for music? Being alive today means you have access to an entire half century of music via the internet. You wouldn't get that in the mid 70's. And if you were born in the 60's you'd start missing the 70's, 80's etc. We're living in the Golden Age.
Hey guys? There's plenty of good music still being made. You just have to look harder for it. Popular music is generally bad, sure, but when in the last six or seven decades has that not been the case? I'm a teenager and I find it much easier to find great contemporary music than you would make it seem.
The kind of song that makes me long for a beautiful day, a car, and a road going West. Great music is ageless...am a senior in college now, but used to listen to Jim Croce/John Denver on our way to the beach in High School. Great era of music.
i remember all of the great oldies when they were newies and music was real and not a conglomerate of loud notes and meaningless verse thats barely understood.
this is true music , this music kids listen to today shouldnt even be called music. jim croce is a true musician.... today all it takes to be a musician is beating the hell out of instruments and screaming like a wild banshee.
If there are any other big Jim Croce fans out there, please let me know. I love his music and it has been a part of so many memories in the 70"s for me. I wish I could find another who shares my passion for his music. The kids of today will never know what really good, heartfelt, story telling music is. That's a shame.
I was born in 1960, I think was one of the best years to be born as far as music was concerned by the time i was driving in 1976 wow do you remember how much music / talent was hitting the air waves and the cars and hot rods and girls with featherd hair! WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He reminds me a lot of my dad... I don't know why. My dad doesn't play guitar or sing. Maybe it's just Jim looks a tad bit like my dad. Jim is such a talented artist. Unfortunately he passed away before I was even born. :/ RIP, Jim Croce.
On September 20, 1973, the day that his ABC single, "I Got a Name", was released, Croce, Muehleisen, and four others were killed in the crash of a chartered Beechcraft E18S upon takeoff from the Natchitoches Regional Airport in Natchitoches, Louisiana.[6] Croce had just completed a concert at Northwestern State University's Prather Coliseum in Natchitoches and was flying to Sherman, Texas, for a concert at Austin College, when the plane crashed about an hour after the end of the concert.
wow.. loved his music... missed his music.. can recall the days when his music was played on the radio.. real music.. not many song writer singers any more... man.... missed that
i wish i was born in the 50s, 60s, 70s, or even 80s when music wasnt about sex or durg or kids going around killing kids imean there is music from 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s that had that but atleast they here good songs
@donman98 There is some upbeat and fun music today, and I still get a kick out of much of the 80's pop I grew up too, but I've always leaned most toward the style and talent of the 60's and 70's in particular.
@donman98 I grew up in the '50's and '60's and I firmly believe it was my great fortune to do so. There is nothing as good (to me) as the songs circa '50's through '80s. I wish young people of the more recent decades could appreciate the music of the time. About half the people I knew those days played guitar and we frequently played and sang together. Loved the "folk songs" too. Those really were the days.
This brings tears to my eyes. He died too young. Life is full of 'what ifs' .... what if Jim hadn't boarded that plane that went down on Sept. 20 '73?
This song reminds of my dad. I feel like he is here with me everytime i hear it. 7 years and i still feel him everytime i walk in his house. I love hearing this song. Very deep song for me.
This guy is awesome. He voice is so appropriate to his music that is uncanny. Also, it brings back memories from the early seventies ya know love, peace and hairgrease (well in the bronx) anyway
@PantsofVance Haha yeah, I had actually heard "Interstate Love Song" before I heard this song. When my mom found her old Jim Croce cassette tape and played it for me, I was shocked when I heard that riff! Both songs are amazing.
If I were making a movie about my life in high school, this would be the closing song as I look at the empty classrooms but remember certain incidents that took place in those classrooms, and then I would sigh and then drive away as this song would play as the credits rolled.
This came out when I was in middle school and I always loved it. I remember how sad I was (even at 12 years old) when Jim died and how it powerful it was to see his wife accepting an award for him at the Grammy's that year. Kids don't usually pay much attention to stuff outside their own little circle, but all that really stuck with me.
This song is great, the vocals, the words(which Jim didn't write) and as much a part of any of it, Maury, Maury, Maury, jamming as only he could! The only thing that could stop them, death! Wow it would have been unlimited success for both had not that day happened like it did! The music lives on!!!
@MistuhCoolio Oh, because of the inane comments about those who click thumbs down. They can take it or leave it, the world doesn't need to know their opinions.
When Croce was alive music wasn't a commodity, it was just entertainment and artists did it for the pure joy it gave them.. Then some very smart and greedy talentless people realised there was money to be made, shortly after the release of "Frampton Comes Alive". Since thenthe focushas been about anything but quality in music, it's been "cater to the lowest common denominator" which, especially in the US, has been terribly fucking low. Hail Justin, Katy, Brittany and others.
Oh my God. If you can listen to this song and not get butterfly's, youre not human, what a musician. No autotune, just talent and heart. Im 18 and it pains me that kids i work with that are my age havent even heard of Jim Croce. They've been brought up on fake music. This is the real stuff.
@TreySmith781 yep it was called "Ready, Willing and Disabled" where Joe joins the special peoples games and Peter steals steroids from Morts store, it was on TV the other day.
This song of Jim's was part of the soundtrack in the movie "Last American Hero" many years ago. Wish you could have been here longer Jim,you were on a terrific role!
If you really want to love this song for it's worth, rent or buy "The Last American Hero" with Jeff Bridges. This was one of the few songs Jim didn't write, it was for this movie. Ingrid tells a story of how hard it was for Jim to do this song without his guitar.......it's awesome.

actually, I think 1873 was supposed to come out to be 1978. In 73 and even later ,Jim was still having hits on the radio. As I recall, Jim Crocce and Sam Kinnison Died in "roughly the same place" and in the same way, They were both killed in Head on collisions on the Brooklyn bridge, so Youse guys whose ah new yorkahs theah, youse be careful crossin that Brooklyn Bridge Hanh, It's A Killah!
@bigfootskitty croce died in a plane crash. there was a tree at the end of the runway and his plane hit it on takeoff, killing everyone on board. R.I.P. jim. in the words of another musician, billy joel, "only the good die young."
good choice, Quentin

This song of Jim's was part of the soundtrack in the movie "Last American Hero" many years ago. Wish you could have been here longer Jim,you were on a terrific role!

If you really want to love this song for it's worth, rent or buy "The Last American Hero" with Jeff Bridges. This was one of the few songs Jim didn't write, it was for this movie. Ingrid tells a story of how hard it was for Jim to do this song without his guitar.......it's awesome.

actually, I think 1873 was supposed to come out to be 1978. In 73 and even later ,Jim was still having hits on the radio. As I recall, Jim Crocce and Sam Kinnison Died in "roughly the same place" and in the same way, They were both killed in Head on collisions on the Brooklyn bridge, so Youse guys whose ah new yorkahs theah, youse be careful crossin that Brooklyn Bridge Hanh, It's A Killah!

@bigfootskitty croce died in a plane crash. there was a tree at the end of the runway and his plane hit it on takeoff, killing everyone on board. R.I.P. jim. in the words of another musician, billy joel, "only the good die young."

@SinclairDelux I agree 100%, When this came out in 1973, It made 12th grade high school all the more enjoyable, my all-time jim croce song.
