Four more losses to reflect on here, early Spring 2026…
These 4 guys were a songwriter and singer noted for writing “Angel of the Morning” and “Wild Thing”; a musician, one half of Seals & Croft; a keyboardist and founding member of Ambrosia; and a character actor best known for Top Gun and Back to the Future.
Several more notable artists have passed away in March and April of 2025.
This group have recorded music such as “Since I Fell For You” and “Ebb Tide”; written songs for the such as Elvis Presley, Willie Nelson, Ray Charles, Eric Clapton, and Vince Gill; hosted game shows including Gambit, Tic Tac Dough, Las Vegas Gambit, and High Rollers; and performed on TV shows including Far Out Space Nuts, The Kroft Superstar Hour, and Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.
Jim Seals and Dash Crofts were both born in Texas, Seals in Sidney and Crofts in Cisco.
When I was young before I had cassettes, the only good way of making a playlist of songs was to stack 45s on the turntable. I would arrange for them to play my favorite songs in my favorite order. These posts are about records I had in my stacks.
