Portrait - The Music of Dan Fogelberg from 1972-1997
Paul Zollo, Columbia Legacy, 1997
IT'S ONE OF his earliest memories: He's four years old, standing up on a box in front of his father's big band, baton in hand, conducting. Though his dad stood behind him, doing the real work, for Dan it was a foreshadowing of what his life would be -- following in his father's footsteps to become the leader of the band.
