Croce's debut
ABC album was also his commercial breakthrough, topping the charts for five weeks, largely due to the comic, up-tempo title tune, a story song about competing pool hustlers, although
Croce also reached the Top 20 with the change-of-pace
ballad "Operator (That's Not the Way It Feels)." Just after his death,
ABC issued the track
"Time in a Bottle," and a newly ironic message propelled it to number one.
