Neil Young is a curmudgeon and has a beef with everybody.

Love his music, though. He just doesn't work well with a group, unless it's Crazy Horse.

Graham Nash is a pretty nice guy, but he had a beef with Crosby, too. So it wasn't just because Neil is a curmudgeon. It's because Crosby called Young's gf a "predator".

So, does that diminish his talents or make him less authentic? He couldn't help what family he was born into.

Geez, you’re the only one thinking that 😂

Then why was it brought up?

Singer/songwriters/musicians roughly the same age as late Crosby also from wealthy and/or old money;

Carly Simon (Simon and Schuster)
James Taylor
Lindsey Buckingham
Stevie Nicks (dad was Greyhound executive)
Huey Lewis

Not realizing how much times have changed, he used the N word on a college campus in 2018 because he was so wound up on a Trump rant and everyone was just mad and confused.

He didn't get cancelled because no one cares about anything he did after 1972.

Poisonous predator. He's not wrong. Neil Young left his wife of 36-37 years around the time he and Darryl Hannah started dating.

Anyway, RIP David Crosby, one of the best singer-songwriters ever, in my opinion. I like that he was so open with Howard Stern. It's a great interview.

Fully vaxxed and died of Covid… jeez.

IIRC, he was a cocaine free-basing pioneer.

Yes! His interview with WTF with Marc Maron - he comes across as an arrogant a-hole

Crosby was at least tied with and perhaps ahead of Richards in a body-abusing contest, so this doesn’t land very well.
“After that we were in Europe. … We had hired a company that would go to Marseilles, pick up cocaine — now remember, there was a huge crew, I think we had 42 people on the road, so we’d get 100 grams of cocaine at a time. We had a private plane, and we took the seats out of the front of the plane so David could lie down on a mattress, and we had also in the budget — I think it was $2,500 a night — for fire damage from his little acetylene torch, for bedspreads, drapes, stuff like that.”
