A.J. Croce – All about you

A.J. Croce
“All About You”
Today I feature A.J. (Adrian James) Croce. Yes, A.J. is Jim Croce’s son.
When I was a kid I idolized everything about my dad — especially his music. I wouldn’t know who Jim Croce is without his influence on my musical tastes. That’s why when I saw AJ was making music, I needed to check it out. Some of AJ’s music reminds me of Tom Waits. He has a way-older-than-his-years voice that I really like. It’s not terribly evident in this song, but check out “Trouble in Mind”. You’ll really get a taste of his Waits-like scratchiness. Most of his songs include either a guitar or a piano.

I wish that song was all about me….
I love this song esp. the lyrics.. in fact, I play this before I sleep… fyi, i read somewhere that he became blind when he was four years old but gradually regained vision before he was ten.. i don’t know if this accurate but anyhow i love his song
