Flashback


I know it's not hip and I'm well aware of all the problems and controversies surrounding David Crosby,  but this has to be the best morning-after, hangover song ever.  Also, the album If Only I Could Remember My Name can make a credible claim to be the first ambient record ever recorded.

If Only I Could Remember My Name


Generally speaking, I'm not a big fan of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, nor a fan of David Crosby in particular, but it bears noting that in 1970, Crosby quietly, very quietly, released a masterpiece solo recording, If Only I Could Remember My Name, that took the laid-back Laurel Canyon vibe and harmonies and made an album so brilliantly gentle and relaxed that it almost borders on ambience.
