just wait until you find an original in a store for $5-10?? it's not that expensive a record tbh and paying $20+ for it seems silly. cobo, where do you live? next time i see a copy I can mail it to for less than $15 ppd.

From Mark Wakefield on Facebook:
So sad to read of David Crosby's death. We lived in Summit, New Jersey in the 80's. One day I was driving down the main street in town and saw Crosby standing on the sidewalk. I pulled over to go back and tell him I was a huge fan, only to see him jump in a car and drive off. Turns out he was in Summit on a court-mandated stay at the drug treatment hospital in town. The next day it was reported he had escaped from the treatment center the day before. I figure I was the last one in town to see him before he went on the lam. My near brush with greatness!
― birdistheword, Friday, 20 January 2023 22:40 (one year ago) link
more on his leaving that nj treatment center:

It worked for me. Great read, and yes he made the right call. Crosby paid it forward - he helped others clean up including Grace Slick in the late '90s (which may or may not be news, but it was in her statement after Crosby died).

I would love to read more about the paying it forward part if anyone's got other links, that he did that also shows a good grasp of recovery

At their Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, he let Byrd Michael Clarke know that he would support his rehab if he wanted to go, but Clarke demurred.

croz marathon this morning. started off with if i could only remember and continuing with the nash collaboration albums. if one wanted to compile a "second" croz solo lp from the early 70s, you probably could with his cuts from various places from 72-76. it wouldn't be anywhere near as sprawling and airy as name, but certainly would scratch that itch. "where will i be?"—>"page 43" is about as alltime as it gets. also: songs about whales. nice. i may make a playlist.

they're okay. first one's the best and it's on streaming. you're not missing much, but the live ones are fun (+both have "lee shore" in vastly different versions; cool croz nerdery).
sry to butt in. i don't remember if i kept mine. i mean, they're okay and there's tons of copies out there. i hope people aren't gouging, yeesh.

Sorry - didn't realise much of that was in the Post article already linked. But yeah, Yahoo Finance is used to churning out press releases from sites like newsdirect, which are usually things like company finance announcements.

for clemenza - the definition of a schooner is a sailboat with two masts, where the one in the back is taller than the one in the front.
Distinct from a ketch or yawl (other two-masted sailboats, distinguished from one another by the relative size and position of the masts).
