  • In the midst of headline-making turmoil, an engaging and unrepentant David Crosby gives his own account of recent troubles, including the 5-year jail sentence handed down for drug possession, with Crosby Stills and Nash about to hit the road again in August 1984

    He defeated the dragon and lived to 81 years. He may be gone but the music lives forever.

    Crosby ended up crediting so much of his recovery - maybe all of it - to going to jail. At the time, we couldn't believe it. Lots of guys from that period were hitting rock bottom during that period. Jerry Garcia was a total wreck during this same period.

    Wow...somehow he looks and sounds much more coherent here than I expected. Of course, he was fully in the midst of his addiction during this time. But he cleaned up remarkably well for this interview (or his handlers cleaned him up well).

    I believe the woman conducting the interview here for CBS Morning News is Emmy winner Pat Collins. Interesting interview at a very difficult period for David Crosby. Glad he recovered.

    Unfortunately, "Croz" was still on on drugs when he went to TX. prison in 1985. Enforced sobriety for him incarcerated for almost a year got him weaned off the heroin. But good for him. He is still breathing 37 years later.

    My late buddy, Hoyle Sommers, was Crosby's lawyer when he was busted in Dallas. Hoyle got him released and never heard back from him. But soon after, Hoyle got a call from Graham Nash thanking him and invited him to Nash's Hawaii home as thanks. Class act by Nash, not so much by the sorry Crosby.

    I remember if that serves me 🥴🤣😎 that, that Boston Aug 2nd show was on The Boston Commons in like “84” and I believe Stills n I think Nash… but it could have included Crosby and one of those other two etc etc can’t exactly recall all the details 🤯 except that while my nose was packed to the brim and overflowing 🤧 I turned on the local TV station… probably WBZ… and there they where being interviewed… and not only could I not conceive that anybody could have been more “wired” n “paranoid” than myself @ that very moment… to the point that I thought to go down to the show… which was within walking distance of my apt. but couldn’t summon what it would take to accomplish that little thing ie being around many other people… and leaving the white hoarse @ home, or worse taking it with me… but to sum this drugalogue yarn up… there they where in all their snowed up glory being interviewed live on TV and much more, just before taking the stage… and it had to be seen to be believed… because the two of them looked like they could have caused a rolling black out based of how tweaked they were . All I could think was how could they possibly be conducting the interview… and be set to take the stage… in that anesthetized condition 😱when I couldn’t even step away from my damn coffee table 😳😳😳🫣🤣 so not only am I positive Rick James wasn’t the only one who knew the moral of that story but I must say in sarcastic retrospect thank you Pablo, Carlos, Boston George and Nancy freakin Reagan and Ollie North and Company…The Eighties was a hell of a decade.
    Well alls well that ends well… as years later through by pure coincidence… I moved to LA and got sober surrounded by Cros and all his inner circle recovery crew and even got to work some benefit shows we all were involved in 😉🤫🤗 !!! Amor Fati and Memento Moray 👁😎⏰

    A musical genius, undoubtedly. But in this fragment of the interview there is no reference to aggression against women. Something that today would not have gone unnoticed. Crosby himself admitted, some years ago, that in his most addictive moments, he had perpetrated horrible things with respect to various women...

    He was "using" until he went into prison. Cold turkey, with just asprin. But that was what it took and he wrote a thank you letter to the judge. Even Neil, offered to put David into a house on his ranch and pay a doctor to help him through his withdraws. David turned him down flat. If David could have controlled his mouth at times, he'd have spent his last years on good terms with s,n and y. It is what it is!
