i saw david crosby solo, in 1979-80ish.  his voice is just heartbreaking.  sublime.

The solo  he did for Melissa Etheridge and her bride came a little later in his career.
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Well, it took a failed liver and a liver transplant to wake him up.  But, he's been clean and sober for several years now!   :asthing:  He's still a bit chunky, but, he's still putting out the music!

So, my remark about his  "solos"  took root, after all?

I didn't think anyone got it.

I need that feeling with a few more things, over the past year or so I have become a tad too disengaged at times.

True. I probably should not have left the magic drift away. Reading again has been surprisingly introspective for me, though thats probably my choice of reading material more than anything else.
