ChevyVanMiller Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Would have loved to see where his songwriting would have taken him. All of those classic hits were done in a two-year recording career. 4 1 1

thenorthremembers Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 Photographs and Memories is a favorite of mine. R.I.P Big Jim 1
Another Fan Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 I've never heard a song of his I didn't like. if I had to choose a favorite it'd probably be this one: 3

The Dean Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 My personal Croce favorite (at least of his hits): 1 1

Harry Chapin sang about flying (metaphor for getting high) in his taxi... But was killed in his VW by being rear-ended by a semi on the Long Island expressway. If you were playing baseball and up to bat... You would have struck out badly by taking three strong wiffs at the air... But not before fouling the pitcher off on 20 consecutive pitches. LoL... You were listening, but just couldn't put it all together. Kinda Nathan Peterson-esque. I'd put you on my roster! LoL... ?? 5 hours ago, Seasons1992 said: RIP Jim. Can't believe he was only 30.

BuffaloBill Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 He was a talent.... hard to believe he had so many memorable hits in such a short career.
Augie Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 I didn’t realize he did all that in only a couple years. Amazing gift. What else might we have heard? 1
The Poojer Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 His gravesite is iabout 5 miles from where i live. I visited it once.......ONCE
