Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded in an intensely communal atmosphere alongside members of the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, and Joni Mitchell, David Crosby's solo debut is a hauntingly gorgeous masterpiece. 'If I Could Only Remember My Name' is incredibly lush and wonderfully warm, utilizing deeply ethereal, highly psychedelic vocal harmonies to create a remarkably peaceful, bittersweet folk-rock landscape.
