JIM CROCE Was Born in Upper Darby, Pa. this Day in 1943
JIM CROCE was born January 10, 1943. He would've been 76 today, but his life was tragically cut short at the height of his chart success. He racked up a long list of hits in his short life span, such as "Bad Bad Leroy Brown," "You Don't Mess around with Jim," the poignant "Time in a Bottle," "I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song," "It Doesn't Have to Be that Way," and "Operator." See a live performance of the latter by clicking on the link below.
