Neil wrote a lovely message on his website.
Graham Nash also had a lovely post:
Stephen Stills gave his quote to Rolling Stone - I love the āleft us numb skullsā
Finally, Chris Hillman took to Facebook
Just a song, before I goā¦
I listened to āIf Only I Could Remember My Nameā today.
I am so sad we lost him!!!
I donāt exactly know why his passing makes me feel so old, Iām really not old. I suppose itās the reminder of mortality.
Iām younger than him by a bunch, but he is one who defines our generation. When Willie Nelson and Dylan go, weāll hear the knocking at the door.
And then there is Keith Richards . . .
I had a chance to listen to HD tracks on Qobuz from the 4-disk release of the deluxe edition of Deja Vu, which included a mix of outtakes and demo tracks along with the main tracks from the album. Some of the demos werenāt all that special, but I really liked the demo versions of āAlmost Cut My Hairā and āTriad.ā Those tracks captured a quieter, personal side of David Crosby that doesnāt always stand out in some of the more aggressive performances.
Right now, Iām picturing Crosby on a large wooden sailboat, sailing off to sea with a steady breeze, calm seas, soft sunlight, and a wide small on his face. RIP
