R.I.P. Dan Fogelberg

It won’t be the Same Old Lang Syne without him this New Year’s Eve.

I think any finger-style guitarist or fan of the singer-songwriter era of popular acoustic music feels a little melancholy at the news of his passing today. Dan Fogelberg provided an intelligent and heart-felt soundtrack to many years of friendships, break-ups and every sort of relationship in between. So many great songs, perfect for the times.

It’s a blessing that good music lives on, far beyond our ability to create it.

Here’s a link to his website.
