GARTH BROOKS, EAGLES, ZAC BROWN BAND & MORE HONOR DAN FOGELBERG ON NEW TRIBUTE ALBUM

"Garth Brooks, Vince Gill and Amy Grant, Zac Brown Band, the late Donna Summer and Eagles are among the artists contributing to A Tribute to Dan Fogelberg, a long-gestating encomium to the singer-songwriter. Fogelberg’s widow, Jean, produced the album, along with producer Norbert Putnam, Irving Azoff and Chuck Morris, all of whom played seminal roles in Fogelberg’s career. Fogelberg died 10 years ago from prostate cancer.

​

Among the highlights are Brooks’ muscular, robust version of “Phoenix” and Summer’s gorgeous version of “Netherlands,” which features her singing over the original lush orchestrations. Train and Michael McDonald reinvent “Same Old Lang Syne” and “Better Change,” respectively, while Zac Brown Band turns in an emotionally charged live take on “Leader of the Band” and Gill and Grant reimagine “Longer” as a sweet duet.

The album comes during a resurgence in Fogelberg and his music. In September, Part of the Plan, a musical based on Fogelberg’s songs, opened at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center to strong reviews."

DAN FOGELBERG TRIBUTE ALBUM:

GARTH BROOKS, ZAC BROWN HONOR LATE SINGER
On 10th anniversary of his death, Eagles, Vince Gill and more pay homage to influential artist on new LP

“I always thought my music had to be flawless,” Garth Brooks told the Boston Globe in 1991. “One of my biggest influences was [Dan] Fogelberg, and if you ever listen to his stuff, it’s particularly flawless – all the harmonies are perfect.”

​

"Dan Fogelberg’s legacy was, without a doubt, bolstered by Brooks’ endorsement, but the singer-songwriter best known for such mellow pop hits as “Hard to Say,” “Longer” and “Leader of the Band,” as well as harder-edged rockers including “Part of the Plan,” “Phoenix” and “As the Raven Flies,” had long been an influence on country music, having emerged from California’s country-rock scene in the Seventies, which gave rise to the Flying Burrito Brothers, the Eagles, Linda Ronstadt and more. Fogelberg was just 56 years old when he died after a battle with prostate cancer, at his Deer Isle, Maine, home, on December 16th, 2007, 10 years ago this Saturday. But several important projects, long in the making, continue to celebrate his artistry and influence.

Although it took almost a decade to come to fruition, the singer’s widow, Jean Fogelberg, organized a CD tribute to her late husband, with Brooks the first to be contacted and the first to commit to the project. Acclaimed producer-musician Norbert Putnam, whose work with Fogelberg includes his 1972 debut LP, Home Free, recorded in Nashville, is among the producers on A Tribute to Dan Fogelberg, released last month. On it, the tunesmith’s songs are interpreted by Brooks and his wife, Trisha Yearwood (“Phoenix”), Vince Gill and Amy Grant (“Longer”), Zac Brown (“Leader of the Band”), Jimmy Buffett (“There’s a Place in the World for a Gambler”), Michael McDonald (“Better Change”), Alabama’s Randy Owen (“Sutter’s Mill),” Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (joined by Richie Furay on “Run for the Roses”) and more. Perhaps most poignantly, two of the artists involved, Donna Summer and Dobie Gray, have also died since recording their contributions to the remarkable collection, which merely hints at the depth and breadth of Fogelberg’s lyrical and melodic gifts.
