REST IN ☮️ DAVID CROSBY.

[media=https://youtu.be/3Q3j-i7GLr0][media=https://youtu.be/4Lk2KHajp4Y] I am absolutely devastated.....
Talented LEGENDARY Musician and Activist. Thank you for giving the world some great music. For truly giving us your voice in times of adversity and all throughout your life. I grew up listening to your music. You were the very essence of my bond with my father. I followed your outstanding career... and there has never been a day where I didnt listen to your music. My absolute favorite band. You kept it real and didnt sugarcoat your character. I respected you so much for that as well as your being an extreme advocate for so very many causes...I was lucky to have been able to see you perform at the famous woodstock site in 2014 a dream made possible by my ex husband. I am forever grateful to him for that experience. Last year I was lucky enough to Chat with Mr. Crosby briefly and personally thank him for "making the music mean something"...as my father would say to me about him. I will continue to honor your legend by giving others a listen. Hope you cross paths with my Dad up there...he's your biggest fan! ✌️

All of our musical heroes are getting older and some of them will pass away. In 20 days of this year, there have been quite a few already! For me. the passing of Jeff Beck , Robbie Bachman, and now, David Crosby has had the biggest impact as they all influenced me musically. When I first heard, "Almost Cut My Hair" I got hooked on CSNY instantly. Although, I didn't expect David to pass away as it was not foretold! I knew he has health issues but nothing terminal! So like most, I am somewhat shocked that he was taken from us at this moment. He was my favorite with CSNY as his songs were more matched with what I liked the most out of the band. May he RIP! Now...who is next!!!! 😳😞

@caesar7 My dad had the déjà vu record. And made me and my sister listen to Woodstock over and over again on the TV whenever it was on.. The official Woodstock song Of course made us go crazy And suite judy blue eyes. In later years I would come to find out that was their very 1st big performans. And it was like their 2nd gig. All the classics are on that album But" almost cut my hair' is my absolute favorite song I had won a free cast on a New York radio station called free fm in 2006. It used to be k-rock That used to be the platform for Howard Stern who also adored David Crosby. 'Almost cut my hair 'was essential to my playlist And they asked me to cut the song And I told them that I wouldn't have my list played If they didn't include it and of course they did. I fought to have that played on the radio on a very popular heavy metal station And made sure the whole world heard it They don't make music like this anymore I'm glad To know I'm in good company with people who recognize good music . Music brings people of all kinds Together in harmony As David said in the 1st line of wooden ships" if you smile at me I will understand, 'cause that is something everybody everywhere does in the same language '..... best first opening line of a song ive ever heard. ...keep listening, and "carry on" my friend .✌️
