That was a sad day. Hard to believe his music and singing stopped.

His wife owns a restaurant in downtown San Diego, it of course is called "Croce's". It is from what I hear, a very popular place, although I've never been there. It's on my list though. http://www.croces.com/

I used to have lunch there fairly regularly, that was nearly 30 years ago, hard to believe it's still there.

Didn't see reference to zoom climb, but without a flight plan the flight was obviously doomed from the start. :wink2:

Has anybody ever written a better descriptive line than "the doubly-depressin' low-down mind-messin' workin' at the car wash blues"?

Why on earth is Ingrid closing the restaurant???

That place is one of my favorite restaurants in San Diego and is always fairly packed.

Maybe, but, if so, it is a close race...

Yep, I worked a photo studio/lab a couple blocks up and could walk to lunch there, that was back when Market was MLK.

he drive a drop-top Cadillac
Last week he took my money and it may sound funny
But I've come to get my money back"

It really is hard to believe.

I can remember listening to Jim's hits with the GF in 72 before "joining" the Navy to avoid the draft.

His harmony-singing picker was damn good as well.

It's "steadily depressin' "

It's "steadily depressin' "
