What memories come when you listen to Jim's music and Yes his boy does carry some strong genes...indeed.....

What I love about this is that he doesn't try to sound like his dad. He's got his own sound and he's comfortable with that. Still, they were true to the spirit of the Jim Croce sound. Thanks for this video.

I like that he's not trying to be Jim but he got his own voice and style...

Like father like son, terrific.

I think it's great that AJ is playing his dad's music!

Not Jim and Maury by any means, but I know the "Heavenly Band" stopped a while so Jim could do some bragging! Thanks AJ. I miss your dad near as much as I miss my own.

+J Logan No one is, but pretty darn good. Go see AJ and you will quickly realize his genius. He is an amazing pianist and musician.

Wow, I just ran across this video. He looks so much like his father. His voice is softer, but so awesome. The guitar playing is wonderful. Hail A.J. Thank you for remembering your father, who died much too young!

Amazing, Great performance by these two men! His Dad is looking down with an ear to ear smile!

i believe you would be singing right beside him today if he was still with us. he would be proud.

Great job...We are sure your Dad is proud.

En Chile igual te agradeceremos por tus temas ....Jim nunca te olvidaremos ...for ever.

I love AJ. He is such a gifted musician. ❤️

Beautiful tribute AJ, you're Dad would be very proud.

I became a Jim Croce fan and learned to play this song back in 1972...I AM NOW AN AJ CROCE FAN! Thank you for reviving old memories...Jim H.

They nailed it! Jim and Maury would approve, I'm sure.

Thank you AJ I first heard this song when I was driving in Baghdad/Iraq listening to one of your dad's records, I was 18 years old back then. I loved every tune I had in my collection back then and I am so glad to stumble upon this page, it brought back wonderful memories of my childhood as well as wonderful music by Jim Croce. Please continue your dad's legacy and style, great job

He really looks so much like his dad. Brings back so many memories.

Jim, you're the greatest gift that God could give the music, thanks for having existed and make us see life differently when you hear your songs, always miss your inspiration, I'm sure if you lived, the world would be different because you knew convert love music, God bless you forever

Jim's guitar talent is insane plus that husky voice from God. But kudos to AJ, I know it will be hard for you to walk in his footsteps but just do whatever talent you have.

I would loved to have seen what Jim would've accomplished in his life had he still been here. He left behind a wonderful legacy in the short time he was here. He was one of the greatest singers, songwriters, and storytellers of all time. A favorite of mine. Wonderful job A.J. 👍!!!

AJ that was so good it brought tears to my eyes gr8 song

#Longlivethe70s and the legendary Jim Croce

Great job son your dad wold be proud, I knew him back in the early 70's in New Jersey

Omg that was unbelievably great. Beautiful!!!!!

I had the chance to see A. J and Micheal this year. when he did 4 of his dads songs. it hit me like a rock, I stood up and said thank you A. J... you could of heard a pin Drop... Thanks A. J.. thanks.. Jim And Maury for the songs , you gave us all... I am on face book Bob Croce White..... .

that was great, first time hearing you sing and it was wonderful hearing Jim's music again :)

Wish I could of seen them both play together sadly we cannot but he does look just like his dad. One of my prized possessions is the 3 croce vinyls I got from my grandma when she passed away last year

Beautifully done, A.J. I hope you'll consider doing "I Got A Name". I'm sure your father is smiling on you.

I posted this video and did sound for AJ that night. he really was great. I wouldn't want to give people the impression that he is jsut carrying on his Dad's music. AJ sang mostly originals that night with just a few tasteful covers including this one. This was toward the end of the show when the vibe was super loose and intimate, and it was a request that I could tell AJ was super happy to honor. I wish him the best and hope he comes back to the Rose! Thanks all for watching. -grahamsound

So good I love this so much ! Jim Croce is one of my all time favorites and his son Is doing his dad's music beautifully and carrying on the tradition goin

Agreed on all 😃!!!

It's very sad day to see AJ singing his Daddy's huge world wide hit. He got his own way and it's heartwarming that JC's love of music has been remembered by his lovely boy.

His dad would be so proud and gloriously happy!

What a wonderful rendition of his Dad's work! I loved it! I grew up listening to Jim Croce's music and still love it.

Brought tears to my eyes. You lost your dad much much too soon but his music lives on with you. God bless.

Keep it gouing, Grew up listening to your Dad,miss him

Can't you just see the joy in A.J.'s face when he sings this song? It's catching. I love the way he plays and sings from his soul.

Very fine guitar work.

A.J., beautifully done. Can not take that from you. With all due respect, when I heard your father sing it, pure poetry.y it was only on L.P. 33, yes vynil or heck disk but it was pure music. Maybe I just miss the old days. Please don't stop singing your father's music. Us older generation still love listening.

Just like his daddy, talent runs deep in that Croce blood!

Awesome beyond belief. Yes, not the same, but amazing and awesome to hear this again so close to what I remember.

Ella vive en los angeles ....nadie puede ayudarle ??? ...the Best

Wow..! This just made my day.

Jim is buried at Haym Solomon Memorial Park in Malvern, Pennsylvania. Great songs! For all of us who have lost loved ones. Life goes that fast and we will see them again that soon! You sound great AJ. We miss your father. Hello type in "Ron Howard Palace" listen to Opie sing "Lady"! Also type "Ron Howard cover" listen to "The Dance"!

One of my favorite Jim Croce songs and this version is cool too.

Simply put "fantastic" ! I so enjoyed it.

beautiful! The legacy lives on.

Great voice. His offsider does a great job. Both Jim and Maury are smiling watching them play

When i was just oh about six my older brother had a jim croce 8-track it was blue, i believe it was a greatest hits alblum i wore that thing out loved it!!!

Es una hermosa canción ....pero olvidemosla.

Awesome! Jim would be so proud!

Me recuerda a my friend conejo... Very friend ..

I had AJ and his guitarist on my tv show in October...what a great time we all had...it was a really special day for me. Thank you for posting this video xo

Like father,like son ,Amazing!

Beautiful voice…!

Damn amazing! I love his sound. Amazing guitar work all around.

Thank you so much for this......excellent. I'm one of many that upload versions of Jim's great songs, and to hear AJ doin' this .....breat work and fine back up on gtr..al a Maury. Jim

Great. Looks and sounds like his Dad. Would like to hear some of his original material to see if he is as good a story teller as Jim.

You have the same features of your dad without the mustache. You have the Italian blood running through your veins. Miss Jim a lot. Great to hear your versions of his songs.

Great Job A.J. keep it going its been a long time since ive heard anyone come close to playing and singing the music of your dads like you can. you do a wonderful job and your other guitar player is great also so keep on with the legacy.

To bad Maury did not have a son. To see both sons togeather would be awesome.

AWESOME, Thanks for sharing.

Thank you sir for posting this. I love your dads music he was a great man. :)

I still love ur dad, AJ.. take care and keep on spreading you and your dad's love. Jim was a lover, and not a fighter for those that took his stories so far ;-) I still tear up a bit hearing time in a bottle. I regret that your dad never got to see how much the world truly loved him and his work.

love it! Different, but yet the same. i've listened to several of his 'own' songs today as well- a very talented musician and song writer!!

Just awesome! Gave me goosebumps

So cool to see...keep it going brother...God Bless

Good to see that AJ is carrying his dad's music to a new audience...talented in his own right!

Thank you so much for sharing this. AJ is a superb talent in his own right, but it is beautiful to see him perform such a tribute to his father.

Wonderful Stuff AJ you are a credit to you old Dad Thankyou.

Oh how great they would have sounded together.

It’s so sad that dad couldnt make music with his son. Tear in my eye.

Where are you now A.J? This is a tremendous music for only two singers to produce. Well done.

This is by far Adam Sandler's best performance.

Jim lives on in A.J.

Thanks for posting ...............

great work A J , thanks and the back up guitarits work is great , just like Maury minus the singing!

Linda música!!!

Great job 👍!!!

Fine job AJ thank you so much!!

Geez louise, the DNA sure doesn't roll far from the source now, does it? Glad I stumbled upon this.

he's one fine musician too, like his dad's

This is great !

Thanks, such memories :-) :-(

i imagine it would be too emotional for him to do "i got a name" by his dad,i don't see it listed on utube yet…..he said he had to get past the emotions of playing "time in a bottle" as well……..
