Nicolette Larson co-sung with him on 'Four Strong Winds' (love that song, easy to play on the guitar). It was a huge hit, stands on it's own. Larson's vocal contribution is significant and unique.
She was best friends with his sister and he dated her for a short time. Anyway, Larson had a tylenol addiction and passed away from it in the 90s. He talked badly about her addiction after she passed. I thought that was unnecessary and if you can imagine, those that were close to her and loved her, that would really hurt that a high profile person like him was publicly airing someone else's dirty laundry. I thought that was a low blow and could make him a dickhead.
He also got spiteful when in Crosby Stills Nash and Young. If Young didn't get his own way he would sabotage and not contribute good songs, and keep his good stuff for his solo work. Ego shit.
