Track 4 from his third album “You Don’t Mess Around with Jim” released in 1972 copyright ABC Records. After hearing a demo tape, the Polygram Group in the Netherlands agreed to finance the recording of the album at “The Hit Factory” in New York City. The finished product was shopped around and rejected by forty record companies before ABC listened and agreed to sign Croce. The album received slightly better than average reviews and achieved Gold status the following year. After his death in September, 1973 in a small plane crash in Louisiana that was attributed to pilot error, “Time in a Bottle” was released as a single and reached No. 1, becoming his second single to top the charts.
