Jim Croce - Time in a Bottle: A Special Collection (Tape One) album flac

Album: You Don't Mess Around With Jim (1972). This hit 14 weeks after Croce was killed in a plane crash. Croce started touring after he completed I Got A Name. On September 30, 1973 a plane carrying Croce and five other people crashed upon takeoff as he was leaving one college venue to another 70 miles away. No one survived the accident, and among those killed was Maury Muehleisen, who played guitar on Croce's albums

Time in a Bottle reached the top slot on the pop charts in December 1973, but this posthumously released single was not Jim Croce's only Number One record, as his producers Tommy West and Terry Cashman vividly recall. West was a senior at Philadelphia's Villanova University in 1962 and in charge of the university's Glee Club auditions when he first met Croce. I interviewed Jim, and after the audition he invited me to his house for dinner. The rollicking title track off of the 1972 album You Don't Mess Around With Jim established Croce as an artist with broad appeal, but West feels that the tender Operator (That's Not the Way It Feels), off of the same album, was the best record they made. That track established Jim as an artist, which was important to developing a serious, long-term career at that time. It wasn't just a clever piece of writing, which Jim was obviously good at; it was thoughtful and heartfelt.

You Don't Mess Around with Jim is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Jim Croce, released in 1972.

8. Hard Time Losin' Man. 9. Lover's Cross. 10. Roller Derby Queen. Of all these James Taylor, Carly Simon, Carol King, Janis Ian etc. the one writer that touched my heart the most was Jim Croce. In a few short years he wrote many memorable, romantic, funny, touching songs. When his life was abruptly ended, I literally felt a hole in my life. When he was alive, I bought every LP he released as soon as it came out, and for years I bought several of the retrospectives that had his hits and obscure home recordings and folk songs. Here in this collection is probably the best of his work, both as a songwriter and a folk music performer
