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! ✌️

It’s just old 70’s music. Sounds like a rip off of the eagles

@Ferise1 It may seem that way to you , But he was part of many well known bands in the sixties and actually sang the iconic Woodstock song . Amongst many other very very famous songs. He also was an advocate for peace And every other cause you can think of And believed strongly in brotherhood. All of his music Is very very meaningful in the lyrics All of his concerts Were the platform of some type of important cause to humankind and animals alike And the Earth. As well as for our soldiers who fought in every war especially vietnam. I could understand where the sound may seem the same and I do agree with you it does have a sound like the seventies, because it was the 60s and 70s. But he didn't follow everyone else he set the standard and beyond. he is jazz , he is blues, he is funk, he is soft rock, he is folk he is psychedelic There's just so many Styles and hes worked with so many great artists A very Respected musician. While his music wasn't the dynamics of Jimi Hendrix or Janice Joplin He certainly was at the top of the Billboard with both of them . And continued to make music even into his eighties and was so passionate about making music and getting his message out there, that even when he could not play guitar anymore because of his tendonitis....he was still writing songs to teach someone to play for him. His music even in later years were still rated well and still brought his individualism and raw talent to the stage. It may not be to your taste or liking and I totally respect that but this is a long time legend who Wrote music that mattered And I guarantee Somewhere along the way in your life you've heard many of his iconic classics in all diffrent forums. As I say in my profile "to each his own " BUT LETS BE CLEAR ---- THE EAGLES... ( also a great band) CAME AFTER THIS MAN SET THE EXAMPLE.
