Just got off the phone with my brother.
After the usual chit-chat, he got around to mentioning David Crosby's passing.
He claims . . . notice I said claims . . . I would sing along with CSN's Daylight Again album, when I thought no one was within earshot and without restraint.
I do remember loving that album. I was probably 14 years old, at the time.
Wasted on the Way, Southern Cross and Daylight Again (Find the Cost of Freedom) . . . I still can recite the lyrics and can't remember the last time I've listened to them.
Stills was lead vocal on most of the tracks, but again, the harmony sung by Nash and Crosby seemed as if I was personally invited to join in and celebrate with them.
We traded a few good natured barbs, said our goodnights and, as typical with this brother, he closes (with some sort of pun) by saying:
"Hey . . . we STILLS have NASH to keep us YOUNG."
I disconnected and suddenly felt "old" . . . and now, truly understood the lyrics of Wasted on the Way.
