David, I had a beloved girlfriend who was killed 31 years ago. Your song Guinevere saved my life. I listened to that song daily for the better part of a year, as I grieved her loss. If you ever had any doubts about your purpose in life as a writer, musician, or performer...please know that it wasn't a mere act of vanity. I hoped that we could have crossed paths in this life, so that could have thanked you. Peace Brother!
Met Coz 18 years ago. Thru a mutual friend in CA that had music interest. We were at a party, started talking, got along, and David asked my wife and I to his home the next day, when he found out we were driving close the next day. We declined, politely. His wife Jan came by later, and asked if David asked over. She said that he does not do they often and that we should reconsider. We accepted! Got to their home in the hills behind Santa Barbara at 9am and left at 5 pm. We toured their home. Went for a drive in a scenic road that Lexus filmed car ads. Had lunch at his favorite lunch spot. He was considerate, friendly, reflective, and humble. He had a home music studio. On the wall was 20 or so pictures of Coz with other famous singers. He asked what we thought. He then said they all dead but him, (Janis J,John L,). He did not why he was still alive. He said to live everyday last it was your last. He changed many lives, this changed mine. Rest In Peace Coz.
Glad I came across this gem. Crosby was a human being, a special one who came complete with all the contradictions, complications and contrasts we all have. However, what shines through, is that he was talented and brilliant. Caught him live twice. The best was with Nash at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver. I think it might have been one of their first paid performances as a duo. A duo at least until Joni joined them towards the end for Woodstock. It was fabulous. The last time I saw Joni live had been at the Riverboat in TO the summer of 67. This channel needs more views and comments please.
You got to see Joni in 1967? That had to be so early on she was unknown, except in Canada. So cool that she came out and played with Crosby & Nash like that. I would love to have seen that!
Loved this interview with David Crosby! He said he wrote to evoke feelings, and that he certainly did, in spades. His collaborations with so many different musicians keeps his music fresh and real. Hands down, David Crosby is my favorite singer-songwriter/composer. I know… Joni is right there, too. But Croz! Seriously!! Thanks for being so prolific and wonderfully complex. And also for being one very honest, genuine human being. Now that you’re on the “other side,” you can collaborate and play with a stellar band, literally. I like to imagine…who are you collaborating with now? Like energy, creativity never ends… it just transforms. Your brilliance will shine for a long, long time.
We lost dear David 3 days ago and I just watched this whole show and marveled at his humility, intellect and wit. The best part was, I was wearing headphones and harmonized with him on every song he sang. Pure joy as I celebrated his wonderful music that has been part of me for over 50 years! R.I.P. Croz, your songs have made you immortal to all your fans.🎵❤️🎵
He wrote so many good pieces the last 20yrs. The lyrics and the collaboration with his sin,and many others. I love all the old stuff. I listened to that stuff in the 69s with my elder brother . He was our favorite of the group ,but the it was the collaboration that made it timeless.
My David Crosby story. It was 1973. I was 21 and about to start nursing school. Getting on a plane from SF to Santa Barbara, I passed first class, saw him sitting there with an empty seat next to him. I struggled with my shyness, and after we took off I got up and went to say Hi. "You probably get tired of hearing this, but I love your music". He said "I never get tired of hearing that." Figuring I had nothing to lose, I asked if I could sit and talk for a few minutes. We sat for 30 minutes until the plane landed, talking about folk music (I was a folk singer/guitarist), Joni Mitchell, just everything I loved about music. I told him I liked his solo album, and he said "oh! YOU were the one who bought it!" He was gracious, funny, and a real sweetheart. When I told him about me starting nursing school, he was dismayed. Tried to talk me out of it, saying I was so young and should "live life" first. In retrospect I'm happy with my life decisions. Glad I didn't listen a guy who partied so hard he needed a new liver by the time he hit 50. But I still love him and his music.
Oh Dear, you are so lucky that you had the chance to meet him. He is not only a unique musician, as they rarely are nowadays. He also remained so human and modest, which makes him even more valuable. Just let us all hope that he still will go on more than 40 years as we already can look back to his great music. Take care. :)
Beautiful beautiful story Sara! I’m 23, and my first date I took my ex girlfriend to see CSN in 2012. Also my first official concert apart from festivals a local radio station put on. I’ll never forget any of those moments. Glad to know Croz is healthy on all boards these days
This was brilliant! A hidden gem ! Get a box of tissues because when David plays his songs it’s gonna wreck u! Guinevere at the end , be still my heart! I will miss him so much but have these wonderful songs forever!
True artists be they singers, musicians, painters etc, stand for something with their hearts, minds and actions in life. This man, David Crosby, was an ARTIST. Like Picasso, Leonardo di Vinci, Sofonisba Anguissola, Miles Davis and many others, David Crosby's art will be alive until humanity is no longer inhabiting this planet. That is his wonderful legacy.
Crosby was always in my life's sound track, and I don't think I realized how much he mattered to me until now. I'm so happy to have found these videos from The Aspen Institute because I like the focus to be on Croz. I'm enjoying searching TH-cam for interviews, reactions, concert video.
I saw you twice in concert last time was sunrise music theater in Fort Lauderdale and you will be missed just like I miss Jerry. I will miss you and your music touches my heart and I may be able to write more here as soon as I clear the tears in my eyes and the pain in my heart that you’re gone
Watching this...about 7 days later. I'm surprised by my reaction. I'm sad and I can't get enough of his You Tube videos. This video is very enjoyable. He was the soundtrack to my life from HS to now. I saw him and CSNY once at a racetrack on Long Island. He was a unique man. He was a very talented singer song writer, but very human. He seemed very honest, especially in his older years. Like most of us he made a lot of mistakes but got off the canvas after each knockout punch. He pissed off his old friends who gave up on him and who later eulogized him cleverly, but he found another way to make music with younger more open-minded musicians. He would be the first to say he had "hoof and mouth disease" but isn't that like real life. How many friends and family said stupid things to each other, but they later regretted it and apologized. It's a classic life story from the caveman days. Egos get the best of us, especially rich egos. The true road is to dig dip and forgive. It's fuckin hard to do. Let's hope his old I me mine friends write a nice song about all those years ago. Sail on sail on sailor!
I just finished “Part 1”…I was wishing there was a part two and there is… I suppose I’ll be wishing there was a part 3,4 and 5. Saving this for tomorrow night.
David Crosby lives on through his fabulous music. So lucky to have seen many performances of CSN&Y. A Solo Crosby concert surrounded by his many guitars, was an extraordinary experience.
What awesome honesty and such a loving audience too.. the man is anything but braggadocious.. his exhibition is his song and infrequently the circumstances that provoke such emotion to music..
Thanks for this beautiful interview with all the songs I love. So glad that I saw him perform 5 years ago. He will live forever through his songs, also the albums he made the last years like for instance Sky Trails. We are so lucky to see him still perform on TH-cam. Wish his wife and children all the strength ❤️
On witnessing his mother dying of cancer, "They stretch it out. They keep you alive way past when you would have like to have left with what dignity you have left." Spot On, David.Crosby
I was impressed that he mentioned the late Michael Hedges. I saw him at Place Des Arts, Montreal Jazz Fest in 1987. Maybe the most incredible acoustic guitar performance i've ever seen.
I did, too, in Syracuse, NY back in maybe 1990 or 91. I don’t even remember why or how I got a ticket. But, I was amazed. Really sorry when I heard he was gone.
Saw Michael Hedges @ iron horse in noho,mass.. incredible master of acoustic guitar,...also found him to have an extremely pure voice..not bad for an acoustic instrumentalist..
What a fantastic (2 part) interview! Thanks, to the gentleman interviewing, (His name isn't mentioned) Very easy going and pertinent questions were asked and Croz seemed very relaxed and even happy to answer. I appreciate the time Croz spent talking about Joni! Thanks
absolutely love his interviews, his books, his MUSIC>>. love it all....( I am a not really political,,, I hate the arguing on TV, so I will read about it, and think the government is corrupt even more so now ) that said, my mother is no longer here, died of cancer as well, would be David's age..... she was not a hippie. but a genius,,, a teacher, and the smartest person I ever knew....... she married young and had 3 children.... I was born in "64,,,, I saw CSN 2 years ago,,, in tears during and after Delta,, and drank red wine, tripped over carpet, was emotionally moved with the talent of CSN......I learn a lot from the musicians and artists of this era..,, and wish I could travel for 1 year around the world watching and listening to great performers...... Music is my sanity.......I am so glad that David is healthy and happy..... he is a funny, funny guy,,,,, I enjoyed this interview,,, and yes, Carry Me,,,,,, what a masterpiece...... I am rambling,, but if he ever reads these comments/ reviews, I wanted to throw my little coin in...... You lived to tell about so much.... Laurel Canyon, Woodstock,,, Altamont,,,,, and the years that followed...... thank you for being you!
I was stunned when he did Page 43! I wish he would have talked about the backing vocals on that. One of the most emotional musical moments a human could have...
Terrific guy with the talent to match.Met him with Stephen Stills in Melbourne after a Fleetwood Mac concert. Wonderful genuine people and a treasured moment.
What a wonderful show I love David Crosby he's deep in my heart and always will be she's part of my story. Rest in peace you are much loved! Peace Julie
Great upload. I bought CSN albums since they first came out, and bought Crosby's first solo album when it came out. I still have them, although I don't have a record player anymore, at the present time. Crosby is still one of those old soul artists that's a treat to hear a sit down with.
David, was so nice to spend a day with you listening to your music. I brought my late husband to your concert at San Jose Civic Auditorium, and he loved it! I was raised in Sausalito on the the owl boat! Chris Roberts, was my step dad. I will always remember when your album “deja vu “ came out cause it was and is a fav! I also suffer from a lot of the things that you have had. G-d speed David!
Thanks!!! Amazing hearing David Crosby´s behind his music stories and emotions. For sure his legacy as an artist will be kept as a benchmark. He remind us that writing is not about looking for hits,... its about sharing emotions and personal feelings and stories. Thanks again! And sincere thanks to David Crosby. Jorge Wurth (from Chile)
🕊RIP David Van Cortlandt Crosby (August 14, 1941 ♡January 18, 2023) Sweet songbird, sweet poet. Your music is love ♡healing, transcendent love. ♡ ▶th-cam.com/video/N1DdXKho_vw/w-d-xo.html ♡David Crosby ♡ March 7, 1981♡Julia Morgan Theater, Berkeley, CA ♡Acoustic Concert🎶Soundboard ♡i’m grateful to have attended this most beautiful concert by my favorite singer-songwriter, David Crosby. ♡Brilliant guitarist ♡ Beautiful open tunings. Croz, child of God and sweet songbird, you are forever in my heart. P.S. An old boyfriend and i sat in the front pew. ♡⛪ ♡Set list: The Lee Shore, Page 43, Song With No Words, Déjà Vu, Homeward Through The Haze 🎹, Delta 🎹, Samurai, Carry Me, Distances, Drive My Car
My favorite song of his. If I even hear his name, I hear the opening chords instantly. Maybe he wrote songs that were more profound than "The Lee Shore", or more complex, or more masterful. But no other song has glued itself so firmly into my heart. Never forgotten, David Crosby.
The "Lady Friend" 45 that David Crosby wrote and recorded for the Byrds in 1967 is a forgotten gem that should've been a big hit. Never have been able to figure that one out.
39:17 She (Joni) and Michael Hedges I think were the two most advanced tunings players somebody knows Michael Hedges- Michael Hedges yeah probably the greatest acoustic guitar player of our times (and he plays My Country ‘Tis of Thee right he plays that) he’s where I got it yeah he's the one who did the arrangement. He’s a guy that I really loved a great deal.
1:01:37 If Hedges were alive today, he would be a star I'm sure. (He already was. He was a star.) I think he was for us - for the people that really listened - you know - that really loved music really deeply love music you couldn't help but be affected by Michael Hedges he was just - I ran into him the oddest way I was in the 7/11 on Miller Avenue in Mill Valley and I came out of the out of the place and there was this kid sitting there in the door of his Volkswagen bus and I walked over to him and he said: hi you're Crosby aren't you? And I said: yeah. He said: My name is Michael. He said: Here listen to this. And he played Aerial Boundaries and I just I had to sit down. I sat down on the pavement. I didn't know what to do my brain ran out my nose in a puddle. Look him up look him up listen Aerial Boundaries and tell me if your brain doesn't run out your nose. He is an amazing amazing writer player.
His eyes really did Twinkle..he had a funny snarky smile..a very warm and charming poet..so California casual n cool.. everyone s favorite uncle..a real friend.. highly charismatic..a true Leo 🦁..a Lion King 👑...I an with him a hundred percent life is short goes fast and you have to make the most of it..I am on his side about a lot..I wish people would consider all he went through in his young life and he was just trying to stay alive and above water..take into consideration what performers have to go through to put it out there for everyone.. Rip croz..thank you for giving me something to research and enjoy..❤
Why does Crosby appear to be drinking red wine?? When he got clean years ago, I thought he gave up everything. Including alcohol. I read awhile back that he had starting smoking pot again and that made me a little nervous for him and his clean time. So to see him drinking here... makes me double nervous.
Well, maybe he could have a certain reason about Red Wine. Red wine contains proven ingredients which protect the coronary arteries. Just 1 glas per day - of course not about to be drunken or even addicted.
Saw him last week and I highly doubt he is back on anything. The only thing he is addicted to is music it seems these days. He has finished and released 4 album in 5 years (!!).
Hey David- Listened to Death Cab Cutie. Sounds alot like Graham and his musicical style. I read into the history and he committed suicide because he was bullied for being bi-sexual. Very sad.
Yes, Sungha Jung, that's what I thought too and I left a link to Sungha's video here about a week ago but it looks like my comment has disappeared! I got a notification of your comment, meaning I did leave it here but I guess it was treated as spam as it contained a link! :(
Well, The band that played the song called " Death cab for cutie " Is from the Movie called Magical Mystery Tour by the Beatles.... When the stripper comes out....
David, I had a beloved girlfriend who was killed 31 years ago. Your song Guinevere saved my life. I listened to that song daily for the better part of a year, as I grieved her loss. If you ever had any doubts about your purpose in life as a writer, musician, or performer...please know that it wasn't a mere act
of vanity. I hoped that we could have crossed paths in
this life, so that could have thanked you. Peace Brother!
Watching this on the day David passed away. You will be missed our musical friend!🕊💗✌🙏🎶

Nice cheap shot at the end of a decent story.
David was a treasure. Great music, stories and wisdom. I like how he makes it feel that being a great writer is possible with some work and love.
This was brilliant! A hidden gem ! Get a box of tissues because when David plays his songs it’s gonna wreck u!
Guinevere at the end , be still my heart! I will miss him so much but have these wonderful songs forever!
CPR is the furtherance of the Dream. His later solo albums are daily bread to our lives. I love that my Grandson listens to them all.
True artists be they singers, musicians, painters etc, stand for something with their hearts, minds and actions in life. This man, David Crosby, was an ARTIST.

The good ones are saying good-bye! R.I.P. David Crosby, you will be missed!
there's a presence that shines through those who have endured much, given more and shared that private, shattered spot in the heart...thanks, bro..
Were you drunk when you wrote this? Or maybe you were is San Francisco during the summer of love.
@@sharpenflat6002 Ha! I'd say"YOU" were the one drunk!
Musical passion and genius yet fragile to detail his wisdom. Never forgotten David.
Grazie per le tue stupende canzoni che mi hanno accompagnato per tutta la mia vita da 16 anni a oggi che ho 62 anni . R.I.P. mio caro David Crosby .
Thanks for all your music and sharing all your memories, RIP

I watched every minute and I'm sure I'll watch it again many times. This was a gift he left for us. Thank you David.
This was a complete joy to watch. There will never be any one like David Crosby again. CSN, CSNY!! Wonderful music that shall live on Forever!!!
I just finished “Part 1”…I was wishing there was a part two and there is… I suppose I’ll be wishing there was a part 3,4 and 5. Saving this for tomorrow night.
Part 1was great, and Part 2 equally so. Thanks to the Aspen Institute for recognizing great American talent!

“she was lying on white sheets and she was waiting to die
If you’d just untie these knots, I could surely die”
❤️😢❤️
One of Cros' Best is "If I could only remember my name"!! Helluva album! ☆☆☆☆☆!
I was impressed that he mentioned the late Michael Hedges. I saw him at Place Des Arts, Montreal Jazz Fest in 1987. Maybe the most incredible acoustic guitar performance i've ever seen.
Amazing
I was lucky also to have seen Michael Hedges, in concert with Leo Kottke. Two amazing guitarists- it was a fabulous show!
I did, too, in Syracuse, NY back in maybe 1990 or 91. I don’t even remember why or how I got a ticket. But, I was amazed. Really sorry when I heard he was gone.
Oh man Hedges was mind blowing! Died too young.
Saw Michael Hedges @ iron horse in noho,mass.. incredible master of acoustic guitar,...also found him to have an extremely pure voice..not bad for an acoustic instrumentalist..
What a fantastic (2 part) interview! Thanks, to the gentleman interviewing, (His name isn't mentioned) Very easy going and pertinent questions were asked and Croz seemed very relaxed and even happy to answer. I appreciate the time Croz spent talking about Joni! Thanks
Compassionate human being when talking about his mother's death .
The interviewer is a bit cold and clinical, though.
That's the best part, in a way.
What a funny, humble gentleman.
Rest in peace Sir.

Forgot that David was also a pretty good guitar player. We have lost one for the ages.
Great upload. I bought CSN albums since they first came out, and bought Crosby's first solo album when it came out. I still have them, although I don't have a record player anymore, at the present time. Crosby is still one of those old soul artists that's a treat to hear a sit down with.
Omg could sure hear Joni's influence in 'Carry Me'. Lovely song. Sad but smiley :)
David, was so nice to spend a day with you listening to your music. I brought my late husband to your concert at San Jose Civic Auditorium, and he loved it!
I was raised in Sausalito on the the owl boat! Chris Roberts, was my step dad. I will always remember when your album “deja vu “ came out cause it was and is a fav! I also suffer from a lot of the things that you have had. G-d speed David!
I love Laughing with Nash and Joni on vocals , jerry on pedal steel , Phil on bass and Bill on drums

Lee Shore - just awesome!
My favorite song of his. If I even hear his name, I hear the opening chords instantly. Maybe he wrote songs that were more profound than "The Lee Shore", or more complex, or more masterful. But no other song has glued itself so firmly into my heart.
Never forgotten, David Crosby.
The "Lady Friend" 45 that David Crosby wrote and recorded for the Byrds in 1967 is a forgotten gem that should've been a big hit. Never have been able to figure that one out.
39:17 She (Joni) and Michael Hedges I think were the two most advanced tunings players somebody knows Michael Hedges- Michael Hedges yeah probably the greatest acoustic guitar player of our times (and he plays My Country ‘Tis of Thee right he plays that) he’s where I got it yeah he's the one who did the arrangement. He’s a guy that I really loved a great deal.
Great interview and a music. Too bad sound tech was asleep on the job But David makes up for with his talent...
AWESOME!!!!!!!
Things that can’t be said are sung.
Ah! Steelie Dan's Crosby's favorite band :D
Carry Me is a holy shit moment
1:01:37 If Hedges were alive today, he would be a star I'm sure. (He already was. He was a star.) I think he was for us - for the people that really listened - you know - that really loved music really deeply love music you couldn't help but be affected by Michael Hedges he was just - I ran into him the oddest way I was in the 7/11 on Miller Avenue in Mill Valley and I came out of the out of the place and there was this kid sitting there in the door of his Volkswagen bus and I walked over to him and he said: hi you're Crosby aren't you? And I said: yeah. He said: My name is Michael. He said: Here listen to this. And he played Aerial Boundaries and I just I had to sit down. I sat down on the pavement. I didn't know what to do my brain ran out my nose in a puddle. Look him up look him up listen Aerial Boundaries and tell me if your brain doesn't run out your nose. He is an amazing amazing writer player.
I've loved CSNY since my twenties Deja VU got me through some difficult times bu why do we wait until someone dies to really explore their genius?
BEGINS 1:49
This was before Trump no doubt. Crosby is the only one of these CSN&Y I never met. All three are the good guys.
So what was the bet with the questions? Great interview, loved every minute of it.
❤ David ❤🧸
His eyes really did Twinkle..he had a funny snarky smile..a very warm and charming poet..so California casual n cool.. everyone s favorite uncle..a real friend.. highly charismatic..a true Leo 🦁..a Lion King 👑...I an with him a hundred percent life is short goes fast and you have to make the most of it..I am on his side about a lot..I wish people would consider all he went through in his young life and he was just trying to stay alive and above water..take into consideration what performers have to go through to put it out there for everyone.. Rip croz..thank you for giving me something to research and enjoy..❤
Need some time to get used to the idea that I now live in a world without David Crosby in it. Sparkle reduced by 50%.
No way, Guinevere is better than anything Joni Mitchell ever wrote and I’m a fan of hers too but it’s a stone cold masterpiece IMO
too fuckin neat...croz shines
❤️
Well shoot, I wanted to find out who won the bet about the questions from the audience.

Hello
@49:00
When will crosby or nash say "if it wasn't for Stephen Stills, there would never have been a crosby, Stills, and nash.
Why does Crosby appear to be drinking red wine?? When he got clean years ago, I thought he gave up everything. Including alcohol. I read awhile back that he had starting smoking pot again and that made me a little nervous for him and his clean time. So to see him drinking here... makes me double nervous.
Well, maybe he could have a certain reason about Red Wine.
Red wine contains proven ingredients which protect the coronary arteries.
Just 1 glas per day - of course not about to be drunken or even addicted.
Saw him last week and I highly doubt he is back on anything. The only thing he is addicted to is music it seems these days. He has finished and released 4 album in 5 years (!!).
Girl..it amazes me that u would center on his drinking a glass or smoking.. that's just so unimportant.. get over being negative and SEE HIS LIGHT!
Well, he lived to be 81, so........
Hey David- Listened to Death Cab Cutie. Sounds alot like Graham and his musicical style. I read into the history and he committed suicide because he was bullied for being bi-sexual. Very sad.
how did all the male rock stars from the sixties avoid the draft .. ??
who is young guitarist crosby refers to, as a you tube success??
Sungha Jung
Yes, Sungha Jung, that's what I thought too and I left a link to Sungha's video here about a week ago but it looks like my comment has disappeared! I got a notification of your comment, meaning I did leave it here but I guess it was treated as spam as it contained a link! :(
Very Interesting: 46:46
Love his music... his politics are "long time gone."
You, sir, are a long time gone. David's politics are timeless.
Well, The band that played the song called " Death cab for cutie " Is from the Movie called Magical Mystery Tour by the Beatles.... When the stripper comes out....
The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band
Who wants to hear from Stephen Stills back-up singers? I get a kick out of it, though.
"Death Cab for Cutie," = MMT = PID!
What ? --You couldn't get Steve Stills?
Wow I'm surprised that he's drinking alcohol I thought he doesn't do any alcohol any weed any anyting
The interviewer is good, yet more than a bit sterile and clinical; and, a bit obtuse at times, with respect to basic empathy.
Maybe you can do it next time. I'm certain you will win the critics over with your confusing purple prose. You're trying too hard mate.
