Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young: C/D, S/D

Never forget

Lots more to it than the captions though:

Speaking of oral history, don't miss the Cros's autobio, which sometimes looks like the Synoptic Gospels, with ancient heads giving various accounts of the same incident, on the same page (of the book, that is).

It's insidiously entertaining. Had me considering the actual purchase of old Cros albums I'd heard and knew were shit (but did I really know? If I could only remember my brane)

lol at Shakey itt. David Crosby is a musician's musician, if you actually give a shit about harmony your respect for him has to be at the level of respect you give Brian Wilson. I personally don't dig the Beach Boys, that's just me, but you'll never find me talking shit about B.W.'s actual musicianship, because I'm not a total moron. Any take other than "David Crosby is an outstanding musician" is straight ignorance

I did not disparage his musicianship fyi

For Cosby, musicianship plus voice. Guy has great pipes.

David Crosby burned brightly but briefly.

this is suspiciously close to:

He's my least favorite voice in the Byrds. (I have a harder time picking him out of CSNY)

Not that hard to pick him out

Guinnevere
Almost Cut My Hair
Deja Vu

I'm assuming he can't pick DC out because he can't stand to listen to CSNY for long enough.

crosby's great. it's too bad he didn't make at least four or five more records like if i could only remember in the 70s.

I meant I have a harder time picking his voice out from their harmonies

I know which horrible songs he wrote

Aww sadface!

Crosby's new album "Croz" is dope. Better than anything I expected out of dude at this date.

lol at this from first response:

I follow Strunk and White..."in the names of business firms the last comma is usually omitted."

See how many songs you can finish from that album.

lol that is pretty unfortunate. love the cover art tho.
this is a little better

though it is funny -- "the loner" is one of neil's riffiest riffs, but stills is like "here let me totally rewrite that riff for you."

^^Stills very much in character.

Live box in hand...188 pg. booklet wtf?

Only two songs in but not the vocals sound pretty ragged

Didn't notice until now that Stills and Crosby trade lines on Wooden Ships

Oh uh speaking of Stills, here he is, live with the Memphis Horns, L.A. '71:
http://bigozine2.com/roio/?p=1888
27 tracks, including those titled labeled "tuning/talk", but they're all set up to be downloaded individually.

damn, Stills sounds fucking wasted when he opens his mouth on "black queen" from the new live box

he's thinking about his black queen

In the live box afterglow, Nash has been talking about maybe doing an expanded reissue of Deju Vu. Anybody heard boots from those sessions?

David Crosby, he tweets...http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/david-crosby-neil-young-is-very-angry-with-me-20141011

[Croz tweeted some more shade, "I know at least 20 better guitar players than Neil. 3 in Snarky Puppy alone ..Hendrix , Stevie ray, get a grip." Stephen Stills and Graham Nash have yet to respond to Young's CSNY comments

Looks like Neil is leaving the door open for a Stills-Young Band reunion.

B-b-but how does he feel about Richie Furay?

Ready for the next CHVP tour!

scary

stills looks like he's saying some foul shit

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Jail Bait

four way skeez

stills is doing the talking and yeah clearly saying something horrible, cros as per usual giving the avuncular creep stare, neil is estimating how much the gas mileage will decrease with one additional passenger, nash is shaking his head slightly as if to say 'you don't want to get in this car'

otm loooooooooooool

lolll

Ah damn! Rick Rojas recently, and now this:

RIP Dallas Taylor, classic CSNY (and Manassas) drummer. From MUSIC SCENE, 1970: http://youtu.be/F0NjZrPX-l0

Sorry

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0NjZrPX-l0&feature=youtu.be

Tim Drummond too. Rule of three.

RIP

"Dallas couldn't play my shit for crap."--Neil Young, on why Taylor was fired from CSNY

He and Stills must have been tight, since he was back for Manassas, and remember too that like 90% of the instrumentation on the 1st CSN album is Taylor & Stills.

Prior to that, Taylor was in Clear Light with Cliff DeYoung, later of Shock Treatment fame.

oh yeah, Doug Lubahn, who played bass on some Doors tracks, was in Clear Light too. Interesting anecdotes in their Wiki(which also says Dallas was in a band with Lowell George), although it does refer to Danny "Kootch" Kortchmar, of The Section (James Taylor/Carole King/etc/ backing band), as an "ex-Fug," which is---news.
