About The Record:

I Got a Name is the final studio album (posthumous released) by Jim Croce. It features the ballad I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song, which reached No. 9 in the US singles chart, and the ballad Salon and Saloon, the last song Croce recorded in his lifetime. The song was written by his guitarist Maury Muehleisen and was included on the album as a gift to the writer. The song is noted for its sparse piano only vocal backing. Croce died in a plane crash shortly before the album's title song was released, leaving wife Ingrid Croce and son Adrian J. Croce. The title track, the theme from the film The Last American Hero, was another posthumous hit for Croce, reaching No. 10 in the US singles chart.
