Daryl Dragon, the cap-wearing “The Captain” of The Captain and Tennille, has died. He was 76.
Dragon passed away on Wednesday of renal failure at a hospice in Prescott, Arizona, according to spokesman Harlan Boll, as The Associated Press reports. Toni Tennille, Dragon’s ex-wife and longtime musical partner, was by his side.
“He was a brilliant musician with many friends who loved him greatly. I was at my most creative in my life when I was with him,” Tennille said in a statement.
