Daniel Grayling "Dan" Fogelberg was born in Peoria, Illinois. He was an American musician, songwriter and composer. He is best known for his early 1980s hits, including "Longer", "Leader of the Band", and "Same Old Lang Syne". In 1972, Fogelberg released his debut album Home Free to lukewarm response, although it eventually reached platinum status. Fogelberg's second effort was much more successful – the 1974 Joe Walsh-produced album Souvenirs. The song "Part of the Plan" became Fogelberg's first hit. River of Souls, released in 1993, was Fogelberg's last studio album for Sony Records. In 1999, he released a Christmas album, The First Christmas Morning, and in 2003, Full Circle showcased a return to the folk-influenced 1970s soft rock style of music.
