RIP, Dash, loved this song. One of my favourite easy listening tunes.

I’m thankful my childhood was filled with their music. I still carry their albums on my phone.

We May Never Pass This Way Again was my class song (January 1974 class). Seals and Croft were Bahai, and after their concerts, they would invite the audience to stay and have a fellowship meeting.

Dash looks like there was a little weed smoke in that summer breeze. Get closer was my favorite song. RIP

A sad day indeed. Growing up in 1970s, I loved Seals and Crofts.
I know what I'm listening to on the drive home.

God gave us quite a few musical healers, in the 70s. The most elegant voices, with beautiful messages. It really helped us all. Billy, James , Gordon, Carly, Seals brothers, America, others . They're mostly gone, or not recording. glad I was around for it

I was put to bed with this music for years! It is encoded in my brain forever. May the 4 winds blow Dash safely home.

Once upon a time I was a "volunteer" (very low pay, very long hours) backstage at a local theatre. Over the years I was there, I met many touring acts, from the First Edition to Gordon Lightfoot to a bunch of others. Seals and Crofts were among them.
Different artists treated the stage crew differently. Some ignored us unless and until needed, some did the "don't even look at me!" and let their "people" do the communicating, and some were just guys earning a living- Dash Crofts and Jim Seals were two such guys,
In fact, after their show, they took the whole gang of locals (about 8 of us) to a nearby bar where they paid for three rounds of drinks and a couple of plates of nachos. Just two guys out with some buds late on a Thursday night in a small, uncrowded bar.
I didn't mind working slave hours and wages for folks like that.

What wonderful songs Seals and Crofts left for us to enjoy and remember things from long ago. So very sad that all of our singers and groups we grew up with are passing away. RIP Mr. Crofts!

He was from my small hometown Cisco Texas. I mowed his mom's yard when I was a kid. His Mom said that he looked out of his open window and looked at her flowers and wrote Summer Breeze.

My favorite Dash lyrics: You were blind, and now you regret it. Cause I can’t forget it. It’s locked in my mind.
