I could always lip synch or use auto tune!

Why not considering clapping? Or are your hands so out of tune? ;-)

With a name like mine I should be a natural performer on stage!

They could always put on the poster "with special guest David Gray!"  It wouldn't be a lie.

Well folks, I bought tickets to see David Crosby (not David Gray... ) at the LA Troubadour in February.  I will report back...

I'm bringin this topic back because I've listenend to the entire Croz album. Well, IMHO "What's broken" is the best thing David Crosby have done in the last 73 years. And "Croz being his best album ever, including the two CPR releases and much os CSN things.

I tend to agree with dustyvalentino when he posted that DC was the least talented member of both Byrds and CSN. Apart from some good things in the CSNY's "Deja vu" album and some passable songs in Byrds era. He's been living up with the acquired fame from the old sixties. I guess that a colaboration between MK and Stephen Stills, for instance, would be much more of a thrill. Not to mention that Young dude, the very best musician that came from all that buckett made of Byrds/Buffalo Springfield/CSNY/Poco and caterva players.

even if I am much found of stills, I like Crosby's almost cut my hair, guinevere, drive my car and his collaborations with Nash like the gorgeous To the Last Whale...

indeed Young is a genius, but Stills can bear the comparison imho

My report will have to wait until April.  DC's LA concerts were postponed due to a medical procedure.

I'll bet when you heard that news you felt like saying:  "you nearly gave me a heart attack!"

Stills first album is a masterpiece, equal to Young's Harvest, although quite different. It reveals the different influences each one of them brought to Buffalo Springfield and later CSN&Y. But unlike Young's steady 70ies output, Still's albums were unequal, some times good, but most of the times unfocused.

But Crosby collaborations with Nash had their high moments:
take the money and run,
Carry me 
And Crosby's LP:"if I could remember my name" reveals its power to the patient people.
Nash's "Songs for beginners" and "Wild tales" are solid good!

I love Manassas, a pure gem imho

And Still's work in CSN is very important

[vgonis]

Yeap, Manassas is an example from the good ones (although II is suffering) And the competition within the groups made Stills a better writer. So I totally agree!
