Singer-songwriter Adrian James 'A.J.' Croce doesn't have a vivid memory of the first time he heard the music of his late father, Jim Croce, an American folk and rock singer who died in a plane crash when he was two years old. 'There was no special moment in that regard because it was like being home,' Croce said in a recent phone interview. 'It's like the moment you first met your mother or your father. It was there from the beginning.' On Sept. 20, 1973, Jim Croce and five others died in a plane crash in Louisiana.
