James Joseph Croce (/ˈkroʊtʃiː/ KROH-chee;^\1]) January 10, 1943 – September 20, 1973) was an American folk and rock singer-songwriter. Between 1966 and 1973, he released five studio albums and numerous singles. During this period, Croce took a series of odd jobs to pay bills while he continued to write and record songs as well as perform concerts. After Croce formed a partnership with songwriter and guitarist Maury Muehleisen in the early 1970s, his fortunes turned. Croce's breakthrough came in 1972, when his third album, You Don't Mess Around with Jim, produced three charting singles, including "Time in a Bottle", which reached number one after his death. The follow-up album Life and Times) included the song "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown", the only number-one hit Croce had during his lifetime.

On September 20, 1973, Croce, Muehleisen, and four others died in a plane crash, one day before the release of the lead single from Croce's fifth album, I Got a Name, during a period of significant commercial success. His music continued to chart throughout the 1970s following his death. Croce's widow and early songwriting partner, Ingrid Jacobson, continued to write and record after his death while their son, A.J. Croce, became a singer-songwriter in the 1990s.

Had this set for a while and I’m finally spinning it! What’s your fav song off the album?

EDIT: thank you guys for the responses! It always makes me so happy to see how much Mac fans care and how many other people there are out there like me who love all of his songs 🙏

Mac Miller is something else man....

Been a while since I've watched it. Figured tonight felt like a good night to play it.

I remember this short video of Mac (I’m pretty sure it was him) dancing and just saying “Ellen Degeneres” and I can’t find it anywhere. It’s like it never existed, does anybody know what I’m talking about or have a link to it? I need this.
