206. David Crosby - If I Could Only Remember My Name

Release Date:1971
Label: Atlantic

We've had Stills, Nash and Young so it seems appropriate that Crosby is included in this book. There is sadness in this album, and not only because the artist can't remember his name. There is also the beautiful harmonies that you'd expect to hear throughout. Written in the aftermath of his girfriend's death, the record oozes melancholy and yearning. Standout tracks are 'Music is Love' 'Song with No Words' and the haunting acappella of 'I'd Swear There Was Sombody Here' which is as sad as the title suggest.

Rating: 8/10
Favourite Track: Song With No Words
