From CBS News:

Daryl Dragon, the musician best known as the "Captain" in '70s and '80s husband-and-wife duo The Captain and Tennille, died Wednesday, his publicist said in a statement. The cause of death was renal (kidney) failure, publicist Harlan Boll said. He was 76. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/captai...ical-duo-cause-of-death-kidney-renal-failure/

The music of the Captain and Tennille was part of my childhood. When I think of them, I think of the summers I spent at Bay Ridge beach with my grandparents. Some of the very few good memories of my childhood I have.

R.I.P. sir...

Their TV show was cheesy, but fun. Frankly, I preferred the Carpenters but the C&T version of "Wedding Song (There Is Love)" is one of my closet favorites.
