Thank You for the Music...

Dan Fogelberg dies at age 65.

NEW YORK (AP) - Dan Fogelberg, whose hits "Leader of the Band" and "Same Old Lang Syne" helped define the soft-rock era in the 1970s, died at his home in Maine after battling prostate cancer.

His death was announced Sunday in a statement by Anna Loynes of the Solters & Digney public relations agency, and was also posted on the singer's Web site.

Sure, Fogelberg's music is sappy, but this one always makes me think of my grandfather and father, both musicians.

Oh wow, I missed this somehow. I used to really enjoy listening to him. Kind voice, always seemed like he'd be a kind man too.
