What a superb interviewer -- for a young guy as well - he was respectful and let Crosby speak, and he was not starstruck. I've followed Crosby for 55 years, and that was the best interview. I know David liked it because I've had a few chats with him and know he does not tolerate fools. Well done.
The interviewer had a very sketchy knowledge of pop/rock music history. David was able to assume the role of tourist guide to a foreign visitor. He was effusive. The tourist was attentive, and the whole thing could not have worked out any better.
@@davidmurray2539 plus, in march 2022,
Crosby called Kanye an idiot. prophetic 😁
@@mindsigh4 Yes, but for a very smart guy Croz was very capable of the flippant, not very fulsome response. Similar to initial comment on the death of good guy Eddie
Van Halen's death to which Croz's response was, I believe,
"Meh." He cleaned it up shortly afterwards of course with words of praise, in the wake of much public blowback in defense of the guitar hero. Sure you can call bad guy Kanye names but for a guy who had to have struggled with his own emotional issues over the many years, you'd have thought David could've added something along the lines of Kanye having a plethora of very serious mental issues, evident to many for a number of years now.
Epic toleration! Much musical respect for David but he is the King of fools. And CSN (as well as CSNY) is in my to 3 ever. Great interview and awesome interviewer!
Cridlan is a good interviewer. Crosby tells it like it is (the king of the hippies) Getting sober was the best thing that ever happened to him.
Listen up youngsters. There will never be his likes again. ☘
Crosby's clarity and conversation are unearthly. I would give a kidney to see him in concert. ☘
I love how when David is fully candid/vulnerable his beautiful singing voice comes out. Definitely a legend RIP
At 78 years old, Cros is an absolute breath of fresh air.
One of the best interviews I’ve heard in years.
Very sharp and hip for a 78 years
In hindsight he knew his time was short & did the best he could with it - RIP.. His mind was certainly clear & that was apparent in this interview & Twitter post(s) before he passed.
Crosby always gives a good interview, and I really appreciate how open he is to just having a conversation with someone. He listens to people and honestly answers questions. And, he never big times anyone, which is refreshing to see from someone who has accomplished as much as he has. I think age and the ravages of his previous drug addiction have given him great perspective and humility.
Spot on.Crosby's later years have greatly outweighed his addiction years in terms of personality. I only got into CSN a few years ago.I didn't get them earlier because i have a tunnel,closed musical favour.Also,i couldn't warm to them.I now know it was because i saw they didn't always get on.That was unconscious because i didn't know their history. Either way, they are amazing musically.
@@janefriel6895 Yeah... in like the last 5-7 years of his life he really changed and started to reflect deeply on his past and fight his demons. He became way more open and honest as a person.
This is my favorite David Crosby interview. He’s so intelligent and passionate. His last 4 albums are stunning.
Brilliantly done. I love the conversational style of the interviewer. I’ll bet David appreciated that.
Crosby is someone i could listen to all day.Great interview Tom
Bloody brilliant. What a great interview and what a great interviewer too. I think that's what makes the whole work so well. No forced questions and Crosby seems like he doesn't want the interview to end. Great questions, great answers. Simple.
Always a joy to listen to Croz speak. He and Paul Simon and still making amazingly good music.
"he's a fucking idiot" 😂 made my day.
Thanks SO much for allowing me to share a sitting with an artist ive listened to and admired for half a century...and bless you Croz! -Peace
GREAT Interview, Croz is so honest and the ending was heartfelt and full of wisdom.
Great interview. It was so natural, felt like you were chatting with a friend but with the freshness of someone new coming into his life, which he really appreciated. He didn't want it to end - you were that good. I wish you'd done the interviews for the documentary - it could have been more about the music, his inspirations, the greatness of his songs/songwriting. Round 2?
I totally agree with you, I have just made a similar comment.
the interviewer looks like he's straight outta the Byrds lol
him, mcguinn and McGuire couldn't get much higher, but that's what he's aiming at.
If you pulled out a joint in that interview it would get smoked before they have even grabbed the matches...
Great interview. Very well done. Not many could get David in his comfort zone like you did. I worked for him years ago. Love the guy. Love his music. Love that he's still keeping it real. Good job here!
changing the guys oil is not "working for the guy" LOLOLOLOLOOL
This is, by far, the best David Crosby interview I’ve heard.
David, you still inspire me, maybe even more than when I was a young kid. I met you at an airport in MD. I intended to tell you how much your songs inspired me to write words, play music, and express creatively what I felt inside. It was just before you left the Byrds.
Maybe not the best moment for some kid to greet you and take your time when you were having a rough tour day. My intentions were good, but it went wrong. Hoping you realize your music never let me down.
I still find genuine inspiration and genius in your music. And I'm forever grateful for your lifetime of creative work. Maybe you will yet write the people's anthem.
R.I.P. David.Legendary talent.Love Love Love his solo work.❤
Thanks so much for this interview. I am a fan of Crosby, I am thankful he got clean and forever thankful I saw him in concert last year. I appreciate his candor. I love his perfectionism in his music/harmony. A well spent 45 minutes.
Tha Croz is a real straight up guy and tell you straight the way it is. One of the last real authentic artists from the 60ies that are still standing.
And still an insufferable prick.
@@daviddawson1718 That would be trump
@@jeffmiller2594 well played sir
@@jeffmiller2594 Touche!
I'm so thankful David, that you are alive. It is a blessing to the world. The world needs you now. Keep the faith, be the force, easy does it.
You have God-given talent and honest wisdom being delivered to you (from above or somewhere out there) daily. Don't give up your ship, until it sinks. We do have a wonderful world, we all need to get involved and shake and wake up the world. We must never give up on it, never, ever.
Thank you for your beautiful songwriting and your amazing VOICE!! With best wishes to you and your wife.
Crosby is an EXCELLENT interview 💜💙
“I’m With Her” are brilliant...I’m pleased they get a mention from such a musical force
Grand interview. Good to see a man his age so on it, still so engaged.
Great interview, good job Tom. Croz is making really good music right now. Long may it continue
Excellent interview. Great questions. David is a truth-speaker.
That was the best interview I’ve seen of any of the CSN guys.
Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings. My faves after CSN. Her songwriting the greatest since Joni Mitchell. Genius. Get The Harrow and The Harvest album and Revival. Timeless.
Have a listen to Sierra Ferrell, her songs are all up on youtube. th-cam.com/video/wVA97QK3gvA/w-d-xo.html
The Revelator is my favorite
I met Chris hillman a few years ago, and mentioned to him that crosby's new album was a masterpiece. What a nice person. Both are legends, along with roger. I just wish they can put away their differences, and just play some proper jangly-folk music.
Do you mean 'hear if you listen',? that album is a masterpiece, I can't stop listening to it!
Many people in the listening public would like to bring back those lovely times where the musicians go over their hits, for the umpteenth time. Croz can't afford to spend valuable time rehashing the "good old days," and to what end? There's no creativity in playing retread "cover band" of your own old material. There is enough recorded material where someone can find their favorite performances. You heard David -- doing the same old thing with CSN became sheer torture. Three cranky people trying to ignite the old magic night after night "for the fans" is counter-productive. I'm not going to say why Croz and Graham had a very bitter falling-out, but let's just say that the horse has left the barn and isn't coming back. Croz doesn't "owe" the fans anything other than his honesty and artistic integrity.
When Chris used to play with the Desert Rose Band, they opened for Hag. Chris would talk about the old days, no negative words toward David or anyone
It’s Here if you Listen.
Thanks Tom, Thanks David; such a wealth of music and connections. Love the Miles story...it's like hearing from Rembrandt, but better. Carry on, man!
Ij
Wow, great interview!
Love or hate him, Croz is one of the most real human beings on the planet...
Still relevant. 🎶🎸♥️🎶🎶🎶
Amazing guy who tells it like it is.
Fell in love with the music 50+yrs
ago and it isn't fading any.
If you haven't listened to the Indigo Girls, yet, their self-titled album is my favorite and may be their best. It's got "Closer To Fine" on it, among 9 other gems. My favorite song of theirs may be "Watershed," which had been released on the album after that.
I love Kid Fears off of that album. Great vocal arrangements with Michael Stipe.
This was a fascinating interview. CSN was my first concert in 1986. He was very personable during the show just as this interview.
That was one hell of an interview. Thank You!
Say what you want about Crosby man, but he is a true treasure.
Great talent
is this davids house? I like his yard sale collection of cabinets
Lol me too
Way To Be David Crosby...A Fine voice of truths and harmony...Play and Sing On...
This was great. Intelligent, thoughtful questions and nice and informal......very fly on the wall feel.
Love this guy. Enjoyed his Music since the early days. I also love his new stuff with The Lighthouse Band: Glory, Buddha on a Hill, 1967. Listening to a Ton of Croz during this NYC Lockdown.
Cool
Haha, brings back memories. We always had to sing "Erie Canal" during music time wayyyyy back in elementary school.
So many milestones in Sixties art. The Byrds “Mr Tambourine Man” was shining
Great interview, best Crosby one I've seen .very real
You got to love this man he's the real deal.
Real deal?Real stupid
One of the few with the courage to tell them the truth without fear of losing popularity.
Amazed by him...
Your a great interviewer :) so lucky as well, how did you get to meet him!? And to David: you truly are so powerful, so raw and I could listen to you for so long.. just tell stories and go on about life and what matters. Your amazing, I love you :)
Interviewer looks like Ted (from Bill & Ted) ... Hoshi? 😂
well done interview!
Classy interview .. it's a rare skill and you've got it. Subscribed!
brilliant interview!
Great interview - well done!!
Davids got to be kidding when he says stephen stills is not as good technically as the band he plays with now?? What?? Come on croz get real!!!! Stephen, musically & instrumentally was driving force in crosby, stills, nash & young!! Hes one of the great guitarists!
Nice one Tom ... I really enjoyed this .... David really touched so many important points in this interview ... very refreshing .... he was a cool guy ... all heart ... god bless him ...
im 17 and i look up to him 💖
love him 💖
Really enjoyed this interview thanks
Suspenders and a belt hmmmm what's the message here Croz. Love you man.
Interesting attire for a legend. I liked how fast he came off the conversation and told Tom he really liked his shirt (a plaid flannel) and then asked where he got it. Some how I missed the pronunciation of where it was purchased at. Just heard, "F'n Italians". Did anybody get where it was purchased? Thought maybe I heard Yesterday's? Hell if was his size I would have given it to him!
Beautiful interview...keep up the great work
In CA
I won't ever forget the first chat I listened to KLOS still to this day
I can hear DC talking about the Whiskey-GoGo ... & the dancers
He's talking about them saying of course with the perfect mimic ROTFLMAO...
"Do you know anything,... with a beat?"
I just love him - csn - the music means so much to me even though
I was born 2 months after Woodstock - I still have a love for the music - thank you so much
Great interview.
21:35 I was waiting for this moment as soon as they started talking about harmony bands! I was first introduced to Venice by a concert poster at the Belly Up in Solana Beach, California in 1997. The blurb on the poster said they were one of the best vocal bands around. It was a quote from David Crosby. Pretty high praise coming from Croz, I thought. I went to see them and the first note they sang I was blown away the way Croz talks about in this interview. I often went to concerts where they were the opening act because I wanted to see them more than the headliners.If you ever get the chance, check them out. You won't regret it.
I miss him so much!!!🌹🥹💔
Nice to see this relaxed chat with very few frills; it is like a conversation many of us might want to have. Sad to again hear that CSN (then Y) became toxic, as they were a great sound for me to grow up with, from the ‘60’s. But that’s life. Drift with the breeze and the currents. Yet hold on to respecting what you achieve and to what other people enjoy from your presence amongst them. R.I.P. David Crosby. And thanks for adding to my life’s soundtrack. 👍😎🇳🇿🎸🌹✨
I love his optimistic view that good music will return because of the pains we still experience. Just a matter of time.
Thank you for this great interview. Listening to David talk about his life and music is the best! My son and I had the delight of meeting him and speaking with him during his CPR tour years. Croz and my son talked about fishing! I also used to participate in the online discussions with Croz and some fans at that same time period, and he and I corresponded about growing up singing "Erie Canal" around the kitchen table...in my house, and in his...I was thrilled to hear him mention it in this interview.
As to his political opinions, he was a fantastic singer / songwriter.
Wow..That was GREAT!!!! Was at the edge of my seat..at the end...Also (on my end)....
David my sincere condolences on the loss of your son Beckett 🕯🤍
Like Dennis Hopper says, pretty much everything after the Sixties,”You’ve left the park.”
Croz - I love CPR (been enjoying it for years), I'm With Her (Individually & Collectively) and Indigo Girls. Thanks for turning me on to Venice and The Staves, among others.
and the O'Pears - they are stunning.
I would add The Quebe Sisters..
The croz is a groovy dude, love him and he tells it like it is
always liked his "look" as well as his music, what a great history he has
I love CPR and saw you all at the House of Blues on Sunset and I think totally underrated Jackson Brown was there by chance that night - was an awesome concert.
I'm the bad luck every time I go to a hall it closes 😔
A welcoming interview and interviewer. My favorite song " For What It's Worth". Powerful and transcends time and jumps over boundaries. David prolific and gone too soon.
It's a great song but Crosby wasn't on it. Stills wrote that and recorded with Buffalo Springfield before CSN started.
David sounds great for 78. Hopefully David might live to be 100 years old like actor George Burns - more great music from him for us to enjoy. Love it when he says " Fuck, Ya!" LOL ...
Thank you for this!! ❤❤❤
The covers that CSN did live that I heard were stunning: Behind Blue Eyes, Norwegian Wood, BlackBird. CN the greatest harmony singers of all time. Stephen there too early-to-mid years. Although still at the end of the day early Lennon-McCartney-Harrison my favorites. David’s first of his recent 4 solo albums is my favorite. Sorry for the rambling.....
Such a great interview.
Great interview, and what a way to wrap it up. He saw clearly all the way to the end.
hey, tom- well done! you did not get in your own way and brought out the man. it shows how very intelligent you and your style is. thank you.
6:07 From poor families! Give me a break! He’s father won an Oscar for Cinematography and lived in Santa Barbara, give me a break
@@dnk1870 To be fair, i think he was talking about after he left his stultifying parents' home life & went out on his own. Although i think they helped him along with cheques every so often.
Perhaps he was speaking as a whole. The musicians themselves had to start from the bottom.
Well Cross Im sure that he belongs to the genius songwriters in popular music ever !!!!!
Wooow what a man ❤ always one of the great musicians on Earth but also a Philosoph, a great lost, RIP Croz your music will last forever
Croz is dressed like Grampa Walton
Lol, but the look works for him.
It totally works!
Excellent interview. Thank you.
Man, I'm an freakin opera singer and even I've heard of the Indigo Girls. 😂 Great interview👍 I love the Gandalf quote (although I'm sure it wasn't on purpose) he says at the end❤️
Coolest cat ever.
Had a revelation watching this: there needs to be a tiered system for artist payouts…once you reach a certain threshold of listeners, you get an increasingly larger percentage of profits…
Superp and inspiring.
Love CPR. Pevar is an unbelievable guitarist.
Great interview. If you would like to listen to a fantastic harmony group you should seek up a Swedish duo called Good Harvest. Marvellous talents. You're in for a treat.
Great harmony vocals: Simon & Garfunkel = Scarborough Fair, Seals & Crofts = Diamond Girl, Styx = Best of Times, The Lighthouse Band = Glory
facebook.com/groups/1022589994788659/ I like their version of Helplessly Hoping. Hope it brings more ppl to their music.
I agree! Indigo Girls have been amazing forever. Wonderful vocals and songs.
'If you can make them laugh, you can make them cry' ..... right on, David
that's funny. When Crosby's phone went off, I checked mine!! LOL!
What a fucking legend
I could be mistaken about " For What It 's Worth". I am referring to the poignant song about Kent State, May 1, 1970 in Ohio.
Oh, interestingly you picked a CSNY song Neil Young wrote. Indeed Crosby sings very well on it.
We will miss you David. You were rambunctious for sure, and I had periods of disliking you, but you transcended just being a singer songwriter guitarist. I think we can all see with your sad passing that the personal squabbles among CSNY were, in the end, petty and just noisy bulshit. Wish you four could have seen that while there was still time. We'll miss you big time. Rest in peace.
20:00 People who can really sing harmony...
Crosby's been there, done that and seen it all.
Only 563 likes! What great podcasts! David Crosby makes me laugh! ...Well he's out lived "Charlie Watts"
