Not only do I know the song, but I met him a couple of times. Once at the local Carvel.
Intresting that you met Harry Chapin? Must have been long ago since he's been gone 41 years.
Ironically he died in 1981 in a fiery crash with a tractor trailer.
It was. I was a child. My parents took us to one of his concerts. I remember when he died on the way to a concert in Eisenhower Park.
Eisenhower Park . . . YES, I remember now, too! I was in school in Florida at the time; my brother called me from NY with the news.
I'm betting my brother saw him live, as well. Sadly, he's not alive for me to ask . . . and Harry wasn't my sister's type of music. She was a 'bubblegum' kinda gal.
Well at least I got to hang with the Ohio Express/Music Explosion tour, HA !!!!!
