Anybody a Harry Chapin fan? 40 Years since Untimely Passing

Is anybody a Harry Chapin fan? As loved his music like "Cats in the Cradle" and can listen to him all day. BTW, it was his untimely passing in a car wreck in 1981. Discovered him after his death but still love his music.

Yes and have been since the 70’s. Have nearly worn out Greatest Stories Live.

Sad that he died so early. Heard Cats in the Cradle on the radio a couple of days ago.

Love Harry.
I miss the singer-songwriters, particulary those who wrote with a sense of humor: Chapin, Croce, Silverstein.

Unpopular opinion “Taxi” is better than “Cats in the Cradle.”

A Better Place to Be was always my favorite.

Love either Taxi or Cats in the Cradle. Can listen to him for hours

Saw him for free in Memphis in like 1974 (along with Keith Sykes and the Dixie Dogs). Tom Chapin from "Make A Wish" performed also. Great experience for a 14-year-old. Always loved Harry and Jim Croce.

Sequel was a really good album also.

Taxi was slow moving while that over in Sequel was fast paced music

With ten years or so in radio, WOLD really resonates with me.

Long time Harry Chapin fan. I know that folks love "Cats in the Cradle", but I don't think that's anywhere close to as good as "Taxi", "The Sequel", "W O L D", "I Wanna Learn a Love Song", "Story of a Life" and more.

"Dreams Go By" hits different when you get older.
