- VOLUME #2 • Jim Croce (Best of Jim...
Jim Croce was an influential American singer-songwriter whose musical career soared in the early 1970s.Born in 1943, Croce's journey to success began in Philadelphia, where he honed his musical skills and met his future wife, Ingrid Jacobson. Signing with ABC Records, Croce gained widespread recognition with hits like "You Don't Mess Around with Jim" and "Time in a Bottle." Tragically, at the peak of his fame, Croce's life was cut short in a fatal plane crash in 1973, leaving behind a rich legacy of heartfelt storytelling and folk-rock melodies. His timeless songs, such as "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown" and "Operator (That's Not the Way It Feels)," continue to resonate with audiences, cementing his place as an enduring and
beloved figure in the music industry.

Good music 🎶🎶🎉🎉💕💤
I know where the carwash Jim worked at, the building is still there and the Overhead door is now a concrete brick wall, it's part of Capital Cleaners in Niagara Falls NY, you would drive in off of Main Street and pull out onto Portage Road . I was a young boy and I road my red stingray bicycle from the old shit factory into the Niagara Gorge along the trails I'm scared to walk these days to Devil's Hole State Park and carried my bike up the stairs then road down Lewiston Road to Main Street to Portage Road and saw him sitting on a chair playing his acustic guitar 🎸 and singing and I hit my brakes and spun my rear tire around to listen as a big gold Caddy started to drive out and Jim placed his guitar 🎸 on his chair 💺 and asked me to keep an eye on it, when he was done wiping the water off that Caddy he rang the water off the towel and hung it on its bar, sat down and started playing his guitar 🎸 and singing and I asked are you famous. He replied I wish. I replied you will be soon your real good.
Few years later I went home from high school for lunch and im watching the 12 noon news and they announced Jim Croce died in a plane crash and showed his picture 🖼️ and I said to myself that's that guy from the carwash. OMG , RIP Jim I said to myself. And in that song he mentioned Niagara Falls was the Worse time in his life, something like that. It was around 1964 I believe when I had a privet concert by Jim Croce
if only we had more musicians like him these days!!
Imagine even more, if we had politicians like him in the world
We do. We actually have tons of superbly talented singer/songwriters putting out great folk music. Sadly, this is not what sells in today's world.
We would need more than just an excellent songwriter, we would also need an excellent singer like Jim, a singer that enunciated each word so that his audience could hear and know each word so that the message of the song would be received.
Most kids today wouldn't listen to it...sad
When I gave birth to my first child, Jim Croce was playing in the delivery room, a month later he died. When I hear his songs it is a mix of joy & sadness.
we need another JimCroce
1973. So sad. But still listening
Hey... that's cool. I could write something flowery, but that's not Croce. Thanks for sharing. I just left the Dr......blah. not terrible news... just bullshit and stress and for some reason..... I'm playing...ya don't f around with Jim
. Ha. Have a blessed one whoeva you are!
Take care, person who just left a Dr's app.
Oh my heart❤😢❤
I also am 62 and his lyrics touch my Soul always will Jim Crocr b4 he died in airplane wrote on that airplane telling his wife he was going 2 retitr so he could spend more time with her she got the letter after his crashed! Very Sad! Scott P
Operator is so good it's on here twice. So sad he died to young in a plane crash! ❤
He's been gone for over 50 years now. I still love listening to his music. Another irreplaceable talent!
So prolific and underrated. A true poet and musical genius. I wish men would write songs like these in our times. I grew up listening to my parent’s music. Dad was not a fan of Jim so much …liked his soul stuff haha
but all women were. My mom and aunts and Grammy . Jim Croce was a crooner. Can’t deny it. Also his immense talent. Hello universe ???
Bring back romance and real feelings in music. My generation is starved. Come on guys 👍👏😆🙏
His songs never die
My dear mother loved this man. I learned his songs word for word when I was 10 years old from a couple of 8 track tapes
Wherever I hear his songs, I think of her.
I played his music while she lay in hospice.
Love and miss you momma.
Love his music. So peaceful. Gone too soon. RIP 💔
Me too, she wore that cassette tape our and cried when he died. We played a couple of his songs at her funeral.
I played him too as she lay in her hospice bed.
I'm 64yrs old and I'm listening to him he one of my fav.
50 years ago today. Still breaks my heart. 😢
Thank goodness for the technology that allows humanity to share this beautiful music so many years after the tragic loss of this wonderful human being.
What a gift he left us with! RIP Jim❤
Pure music, no gimmicks, no bells and whistles
Eres un cantante y un músico en toda la extensión de la palabra muchas felicidades Jimm
HIS MUSIC IS FOOD FOR THE SOUL, PEACE BE WITH YOU ALL MY FRIEND'S. ✌️😎🏴
Amen
Jim was and is still one of my favorite solo artists of all time ! Rest In Peace 🙏🏻
I waited 71 years before she found me. Now, I grow young in each moment in this Love.🦋💖🏹🙏🔥💋
My name is Marty! I'm 62 yrs old I've been listening to his music since I was 12 yrs old! When I listen to him I remember everything when was just a kid. It brings a lot of memories!!!!! The best!!!😢

Five finger classical guitar training.Better than most good 60's guitar players!
Music can bring such happiness. I'm sure it would bring Jim great joy to know you're still listening all the years later.
Love all his songs.😂❤
Hi Marty I really liked your comment about his music and childhood. It's good to be able those precious memories.
"Time In A Bottle" is the perfect song for wintertime. Watching the snow fall on a cold winter night as the wind picks up, swirling the snowflakes in a beautiful mystical dance.....such are the memories of growing up in the country back in the Seventies.
Time in a Bottle was my wedding song in 1976!! I couldn't agree with you more! He's so missed..
I always think of bare trees(not the album). Just the visual.
@@doreenbarrick2134it was our wedding song in 2015
A testimony to undying love
Sounds like heaven on earth 💞💜🩶❣️🩷♾️🪜🫂🌹🌼💜🙏👈☀️💕

I am very happy that I heard the wonderful music of Mr. Jim Croce in my lifetime
One of the greatest folk singer
Jim Croce's music will live forever!
Some of the easiest listening music I've ever heard and everybody just loved it. He could just write one hit song after another.
Sometimes we grow up with great songs that we remember for ever. Jim Croce was during my young age and was one of the best. "Outstanding"
Jim Croce one of the best folk singer I've ever heard.
Passed away way to soon but he left us with some beautiful timeless music.✌️
True that! ✌️
Music is the universal way our souls are connected . In this troubled times we should listen sing and dance in heartfully peace to heal our selves and the world.
Rest in peace, Jim. You were taken from us too young. Thanks for all the great music and memories.
Such a wonderful talent 👏 ❤ 💖 ❤❤🎉Peace ✌.
One of our greatest!!
Thank you Jim ! Your spirit will be with us , always !
Time in a bottle was going to be my wedding song. My fiance died in a car crash We always listened to his music
I'm so sorry. that is heartbreaking
That is so sad. Im so sorry.
Heavy dude. Told a complete story in a song. What a gift he was…
I used to sit in my bedroom as a little girl playing this song over and over again while my parents fought. Jim made me feel safe. He wrote this for his daughter. Almost like he had a premonition about his early passing. That’s what I’ve always thought. But what do I know ..I’m an idiot 😩🧘♂️🤔😻anyhow . What an angel of a man. Lost him too soon…so talented…but maybe he had to move on and do some spiritual warrior stuff in another dimension . ? He wasn’t of this world. That’s the truth Amen 💜🥰🕊️. PS : I meant Time in a Bottle…but all songs rock 👏👍☺️
I used to listen to him when I lived in Florida!!❤
50yrs today since his passing . Thank you Jim for your songs . I'd been playing your music since I'm a kid and now I'm 47yrs old and still playing your songs ❤️
How did he die.

Truely a great musician.
Jim got me through the Persian Gulf. Learned all his songs, still brings back all those memories. Greatest artist of all time
Jim & Buddy Holly. 2 fabulous artists both cut off at the height of their careers. Just imagine if they'd lived how much wonderful music they would have created.
@@RobertKrus Jim Croce's guitarist, Maurice T. Muehleisen, needs to be acknowledged as well. Great melodies from this duo
Welcome home, Brother....rvn vet
@@chichibangbang3667 Totally agree.
Your service to our country was huge. I hope you never forget that.
Of all his wonderful songs, Operator hits me the most. It happened to me in real life, coming home to a new world.
Great singer, gone too soon😢
The older I get, the more I appreciate his music. He sang from the heart, his words are eternal. RIP you are missed though not forgotten.
A man who lived what he wrote,a soul made of gold, I'll always turned to his music for comfort
. May God bless him and his family ❤❤😂

Finest guitar work and imitated because of his especial technicalities...unique and imittatingimitating
Ignore the above...stylus and a cell phone together are not my Forte...apologies...
Old and Unforgettable memories.
I was a young boy. And didnt have any opportunity to purchase his albums but still loved his music so one day while alone in our old farmhouse i was always prepared with my realistic cassette tape recorder to record my favorite songs. So i heard operater start so i hurriedly started my recorder and went downstairs to tend a barking dog. Later i listened to the recording and found in one spot the volume level dropped and i heard a happy laugh for a few seconds. Never figured out what happened. But it did remind me of Jim. I have heard him laugh before.
thank you...lovely
❤my late husband sang all of them and knew ALL OF THE words by heart...Damnit I Miss Jimmy...my POOKUMS rip BBY
So sorry for your loss friend. Hang in there

Sounds like Jim lived life from the hard times to the good ones. He will live through his songs and memory. RIP brother 👍😎❤️🙏💯
WOW ❤😊😊😊I haven't heard him for so long! RIP xxoo
Memories...❤❤❤❤..
I recently read an article that his son is playing his music at appearances..
Did that article happen to say anything about the restaurant still being around?
Yes, it's "Croce Plays Croce"--saw him live a few months ago and it was really cool. Story telling about his dad in between songs, about how he got his start and recorded so much music in such a short period of time. A good mix of Jim Croce's songs, his son's original music, and also some music that originally inspired Jim.
I went to a concert down near Detroit Michigan with a j Croce singing Andy sounds identical to his father I was very happy to see him
Gone way to soon❤ one of the best ever
A little before my time, as much is for many. I've found that's the best way to find music that touches my heart in a way that leaves me feeling as if the music was made specifically for me! Had no idea all this amazing music was made by Jim Croce! I only wish that he was around longer & able to create more. 💗
Married to TIME IN A BOTTLE
buried husband after 45 yrs
TIME IN A BOTTLE...my twin
Little sisters as well ... Thank you for our SOUNDTRACK 😢
Life is sure cruel sometimes, but God is always good.
@@kath3611yes it is.
Born in '64, I was about 8 when I was first exposed to Jim Croce via my parents being a member of the CBS Record Club. For a penny that you taped to a postcard, and your 6 'album stamps', you could get those 6 albums for penny - you just had to buy one album at regular price. This was an amazing way to grow up in the 70's - because I collected a lot of music and would always fall back on this album and cry growing up - and some of Jim's song's still make me cry. Legendary to me. Thanks Jim.
I did the same @ kansasisaband...wasn't that amazing?❤❤
You don't really hear much of Jim's tunes these days, so I am glad Lonetoon put this out. Jim was such an excellent song writer who deserves to be heard today.
I was in North Carolina, I loved Jim's music. I still listen to it today. I am 75 now !!
was getting ready to go to school listening to radio the morning he died in crash stayed home and listenend to his songs all day still listening
There were the songs when I met my first boyfriend. He's good in guitar and he sang very well all these songs. What a memory!
I Do Love You and I'll Take You back 1000000 times ❤
One of the best
