Can't believe I'm chiming in on this one, but yeah, he was alright. "Leader of the Band" was played aggressively on the small am station I grew up listening to, but I got the message early on and remembered it.
I probably owe some of my tip jar bounty to Dan Fogelberg, people always seemed to like to hear those covers whether I was playing solo or in a band.
Here's the last verse of my favorite Fogelberg song, Nexus:
In a spiral never-ending Are we drawn towards the source? Spinning at the mercy of an unrelenting force? So we stare into the emptiness and fall beneath the weight Circling the Nexus in a fevered dance with fate -- Wealthy the spirit that knows its own flight Stealthy the hunter who slays his own fright Blessed the traveler who journeys the length of the light.
Everytime I see an Ex in Kroger, I don't try to touch her sleeve. Instead I go into Artemis Gordon mode and disguise myself as a saloon hooker or a Mexican cattle baron to avoid pointless awkwardness.

Thanks for chiming in, Bill. The guy told some really cool stories with his songs.

In a spiral never-ending
Are we drawn towards the source?
Spinning at the mercy of an
unrelenting force?
So we stare into the emptiness
and fall beneath the weight
Circling the Nexus in a
fevered dance with fate --
Wealthy the spirit that knows its
own flight
Stealthy the hunter who slays
his own fright
Blessed the traveler who journeys
the length of the light.

Hey, Cat; thanks for the comment and for listing those that lyric. They are remarkable.
