meower shared something about him too. I remember the AM DJs at our little town's station being something of a celebrity ("Doc" DeVore!), I can only imagine how godlike a big-market DJ seemed back then.
Of that we can all agree. With all the drugs, alcohol, and health issues he endured over his lifetime; he passed his expiration date many times. But what music he produced over that time period. He defined a song track that spanned many generations and that should live on for a long time. To David Crosby.
Indeed. A big part of my musical life for 58 years and will be still. America's Keith Richards in terms of longevity despite the odds ...
Got to see CSN and CSNY several times over the years.
He's more than 8 Miles High now. To a full life, played hard.

Just heard the news, and our system runs 3 hrs in the future — love those flux capacitors — so it'll be 7 or so this evening (California time) when I'll play my top two all-time fave Crosby tracks.
I guess I should follow up with news about rapper Gangsta Boo since I brought it up. Not that anybody really cares, I certainly don't.
Sources close to Mitchell claimed to TMZ that she was partying with her brother the previous night, and that she overdosed after taking cocaine that was (unbeknownst to him) laced with fentanyl. Although her brother survived and was released from hospital, Mitchell allegedly used the same batch of cocaine a few hours later and suffered a fatal overdose.
They were, for a time, my very favorite band. I'd always hoped for a reunion that clearly is not going to happen. RIP
I got to visit with them for a bit very early on. Absolutely the most agreeable, friendly guys you could imagine. Van's strap broke so he played most of the set sitting down, until someone in the room ran home and got him the strap from their own guitar. They were great, of course, hard working and seemed to enjoy every minute of it. I wonder if they remember how epic that night was in the memories of the several dozen people crammed into a hole in the wall.

Van Conner bassist and song writer of Screaming Trees died last night of an extended illness at 55 It was pneumonia that got him in the end. He was one of the closest friends I ever had and I loved him immensely.
I will miss him forever and ever and everâ¦
