Fairwell, music man. Thank you for all of the smiles.

Jim Seals, one half of 1970s soft-rock duo Seals and Crofts, has died at the age of 80, according to his family.
Seals, together with musical partner Darrell "Dash" Crofts, was best known for hits such as "Summer Breeze," "Diamond Girl" and "Get Closer."

Announcing his death on social media, Seals' relative Brady Seals -- himself a singer-songwriter -- wrote: "I just learned that James 'Jimmy' Seals has passed. My heart just breaks for his wife Ruby and their children. Please keep them in your prayers. What an incredible legacy he leaves behind."


One great hit song of theirs not mentioned is "Hummingbird". Ever since I heard he had passed the song has run through my head nonstop. I'm fine with that. https://youtu.be/B412Ij9IAnc

Ah man! I've returned to QS Fans after a years long absence only to hear of this. This is very sad to hear. It's like an entire generation of music greats is leaving. a
