Dead at 56 of prostate cancer.
"His best-remembered songs include his biggest hit, the affecting ballad "Longer" ... ; "Leader of the Band," a tribute to his bandleader father, Lawrence; and the evergreen seasonal standard "Same Old Lang Syne," which originally hit the top 10 in 1980." USA Today obit. They missed "Rhythm of the Rain."
"Leader of the Band" is one of the very finest of the tributes song genre. Gives me chills.
Rest well, Dan Fogelberg. Thanks for the songs.
