6047. Jim & Ingrid Croce - Age
 |
| From: Croce; Year: 1969; Genre: Folk Rock/Folk |
All of Jim Croce's music is like hearing the voice of a dear friend every time a song of his starts. For me personally, he's always been someone that wrote the blues that no matter the situation was just genuine and reassuring; even though he tragically was killed before I was born it still brings a great deal of emotion to know that such a great artist's life was cut so young.
This record, which my Mother still adores to this day, is another that every song is indelibly burnt into my mind. What especially made it that much better is that his wife, Ingrid co-wrote all but three songs and performed with him vocally as a team; a thing of beauty. He would later re-record this song, Age, for his final studio album, I Got a Name, sans Ingrid, but it's still very good, but I do prefer the earlier version.
