David Crosby of the Byrds and Crosby, Stills and Nash has died aged 81

A singer and guitarist leaves us with so many classic songs.

The soundtrack of my youth grows ever fainter.

My all time Byrds favourites were of course Mr Tambourine Man and Turn Turn Turn

Also liked Marrakesh Express and Eight Miles High by CSN(&Y)

Their version of the Joni Mitchell song Woodstock was pretty good too

R.I.P. David . As someone on another site said 'He lived the life and hated The Doors."

That'll do for me....

For Mrs B. I think it was Graham Nash who wrote Our House, but whatever, it was the musical synergy of the three in CSN which brought us that magical music 

This is an early Demo of Our House by Graham Nash, with Joni Mitchell, when they were together. It's available on the Deja Vu 5Oth Anniversary issue which has the vinyl, plus 4 CDs of alternate versions..out takes etc. I saw Graham Nash a couple of years ago and it's obvious he is still besotted with her.

 

And here the story of the song..

I know Graham Nash wrote it about their 2 cats. I had the original Deja Vu album. Classic.
