Crosby Nash BBC - Lee Shore (4 of 5)

[@b3arsb3ars]

Maybe the best sound these two ever had together? This video is memorable in it's haunting beauty. RIP Mr. David Crosby

[@laurent.674]

What a loss today. The voice of a generation indeed. Rest in peace, David. What you have shared with this world will never be forgotten. I am gutted.

[@manuelsaturnino9300]

Yes. RIP, Croz. Thanks só much

[@rustybaldwin4851]

He would not want you to be gutted he would want you to be that blue bird and soar !

[@WysteriaGuitar]

Crosby no doubt has one of most beautiful male voices of the century.

[@clementdistanos1526]

Complètement d'accord avec toi, I totaly agree with you. If I could only remember my name, is one of the best recording from theese glorious times.

[@beckylink]

I totally agree. And I was a vocal coach until had to quit due to health… plus a singer and pianist. I don’t say this lightly.. Crosby’s voice is just so pure and natural and UNUSUALLY beautiful. It’s a glorious voice and the world doesn’t even know that. Sad. But we do. 😉 I also agree about If I Could Only Remember My Name. Listen to him singing lead on The Byrds track, Everybody’s Been Burned. It’s just too beautiful, it almost hurts.

[@BlueskyLouAnn]

Absolutely!! I agree!!

[@rogermurray8553]

Greatest high harmony in the history of rock music. Too bad the voice coexisted with a severely disharmonious personality that was the ruin of so many constructive relationships, including the one featured in this video, but far more importantly, with all members of The Byrds, a group of far greater significance, both talent-wise and in the grand scheme of American popular music, than CSNY.

[@LeoraLaGraffe]

Yes, he does. I’m really glad I was born at the right time to have his music as a friend all my life.

[@jojob4268]

"But perhaps I'll see you the next quiet place - I furl my sails" Sail on in peace Captain⛵

[@mikebinns9209]

Into the sun Davis

[@debelt]

Is there anything out there today even remotely close to the brilliance of this? I think not. I feel ever so fortunate to have been in my youth too with these guys. So many great memories.

[@robertalker652]

I've heard this song, without exaggeration, at least 3000 times. I never tire of it and it always blows me away.

[@bobolyman9267]

Listened to this song easily over a thousand times in my life. Had the vinyl, cassette, CD and seen them a couple of times. It never gets old except I do miss hearing the fingers squeak on the frets on the album.

[@captainsoul1953]

I was at this recording at the BBC centre...it was a magical evening...Crosby was more than a little stoned....warm memories

[@Kasino80]

Came back to this as soon as I heard about David's passing. Such en immensely talented man.

[@johnheart6890]

Rest in Peace David Crosby! I just heard the news and I have to listen to this one, because it just might be your best! This song is so beautiful! He and Nash really had something special- there was something magical when they sang together!

[@MaxyBoy-x9u]

We saw Crosby three years ago in a small theater. Just him and a guitar tech changing out guitars. His voice sounded like he was in his mid-thirties. What a fulfilling show.

[@gulfgypsy]

The perfection of their voices is unmatched today. Considering the insanity and grief Crosby had been through at the time he wrote this -- Christine Hinton having died in a car crash. This must of been a bit of a balm on his soul. Every time I listen to this song, I remember the peace I'd feel when I would be on the water. Late at night when you couldn't tell where the sky ended and the sea began -- There is a peace to be found that seems to not be anywhere else.....

[@Noel-bs8zn]

My wife and I have always loved this song. My brother will be singing it at her memorial service in a few days. She'd love that.

[@RebekahCurielAlessi]

​@@Noel-bs8zn🙏 🕯

[@sheilasams9515]

ABSOLUTE MAGIC, I WEEP WHEN I HEAR THIS, EVERY SINGLE TIME, IT STILL MOVES ME TO TEARS,AND I AM 55 NOW,WAS A CHILD WHEN IT CAME OUT, PEACE BROTHERS AND SISTERS ✌👍😥🙂💜❣

[@Rocketryman]

Me too. It take me somewhere else. Such a pure and passionate song.

[@jakeyjervis]

There is NOTHING like nostalgia. I do it every day.

[@elainemullen9538]

Same here! And Peace to you as well, especially in these trying times!

[@rustybaldwin4851]

took my wife to harbour island Bahamas walked along the pink sand beach one night and played this one for her just fit ya know

[@PeterKauba]

What a gift to humanity, ,Vokal harmony Setting ,and Songwriting !

[@mauricepowers8079]

David Crosby has such a great voice and his songs are pure GENIUS.

[@mnnorthcountrygirl1]

"But perhaps I'll see you The next quiet place I furl my sails..." That is brilliant and beautiful.

[@steveoh4595]

Crosby may b whacked out of his mind, but good god man is he on when it comes to playing and singing...like a god. Beautiful images in the mind poetry second to none.

[@mariagramieri9290]

oh! never has David sounded so beautiful.....I thank them both and Stephen too, for all the joy they bring me.

[@Keyboardman88]

And Nash has to be one of the best every harmony singers.

[@franciscolopez3229]

I am pretty sure Graham Nash will miss the harmony that he and David Crosby did together just like this one. R.I.P. David and thank you for sharing your life and music to us all. You may have left but your music will CARRY ON.......

[@rosalindalay4499]

He has voice d recently so.. very sad

[@robertlaviana4547]

Rest in Eternal Peace David...thanks for your contributions 1/18/2023

[@warriordragonify]

Sometimes their harmonies are so sweet they bring a tear to your eye...

[@maureenhorrigan7475]

Crosby's voice sounds like an choir boy. Just beautiful

[@mariadpinto]

I so agree!

[@torib9348]

Rest In Peace, David. Thank you for the beautiful music.

[@davidmitulski8881]

Nash and Crosby! A treasurechest of Harmony! RIP David Crosby! Thank YOU!

[@linjicakonikon7666]

It's been 50 years and this song still moves me with each hearing. No one other than David Crosby writes like this.

[@callahanburke8486]

An absolute genius. Thanx, Croz!

[@phylsthots6045]

Some gentleman on Facebook turned me on to Lee Shore. What a wonderful gift. David Crosby had the most beautiful voice. Can’t get enough of Lee Shore ✌️💞🎶

[@jerryhund5630]

Who are these 50 people who do not like this song? Time for Crosby and Nash to make up, forgive and forget. Their voices are heavenly.

[@Prop_2112]

RIP good friend David Crosby !!! You gave us Many years of Great Music !!!!

[@williamkeese9287]

No matter how old this song is its still great

[@tennisbumojai]

Wow....Crosby has the most beautiful voice. The two of them together were magic.

[@aleleeinnaleleeinn9110]

From here to Venezuela nothing more to see than a 100,000 islands flung like jewels upon the sea for you and me. To sail that run is still on my bucket list. Yes, I love this song. Excellent version.

[@vitoplusch6423]

These old cuts are all are part of my childhood..such nostalgic memories...70's

[@futuropasado]

Crosby's voice had the divine spark. You just have it or not, soul speaks.

[@debranelson1987]

Simply beautiful ...two pure voices blending together as one. RIP David Crosby.

[@unclevictoroski1]

I think this is my favorite version of my favorite song by David Crosby. What magic!

[@jmua8450]

The sound of their voices together is magic. It can’t be replicated.

[@irenedownie6559]

I’ve loved CSNY in any combination for decades. This song is so mesmerisingly beautiful. It transports you to a serene, tranquil voyage on the warm and sunny Caribbean Sea. ❤️

[@cyprescrow]

One of the most beautiful songs. Incredible.

[@philanddeb818]

My all time favorite song. I hope when I die, people will play it at my wake. What a wonderful band. What wonderful people. God bless you all.

[@edwardscott4562]

The version on the Crosby Stills and Nash boxed set is probably the best I've ever heard ENJOY

[@MaxyBoy-x9u]

Wow you just gave me an idea to do the same thing. Perfect sendoff song.

[@gahe56]

Agreed

[@hansv.5710]

I think about it too

[@kathiekonstantinov4355]

I told my family that years ago...Sent them all this video.

[@MRShaneDude]

RIP David Crosby

[@welderman444]

could two men ever sound better together? class guys.

[@mally.4512]

Goodbye David Crosby. Thanks for this beautiful song.

[@EastCoastDude]

That's a real beauty. David Crosby's lead vocals are really something. Wow. Better than any hip-hop or other crap of today.

[@MrTuberguber]

stated fourteen years ago and sadly, it's as true as ever.

[@712dal]

One of my favorite Crosby written songs....

[@andyh109]

One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

[@bellis7085]

I have been listening to these guys all my life and it’s impossible to have a favourite but this is close!

[@lostinmusic5431]

Whenever I hear this song, I think this is reflects the fundamental vibrations of my soul.

[@dontbakdown6015]

The voice...David crosby...so pure

[@oksam7667]

Nash lousy comment... David is another level, love this guy, a jewel... and he kept his voice all the way up... to the skies...

[@brncosdood41]

best song ive ever heard

[@LeeeShore]

Then you MUST listen to the '4-way Street' album version!

[@bigballetlover]

David Crosby - you have the most beautiful, sensitive voice ever and this is the most beautiful song ever.

[@marylusunshine]

The date of this performance, 9/11/1970, was on my 11th birthday, lol! It would only be 2 years until 4-Way Street became essential to me as I began to form into a woman from a girl. I listened to Deja Vu a lot too and a little later came Stephen Still's album, Illegal Stills. I still listened avidly when it was just CSN but I always listened to Neil Young too. The music of all of these brothers influenced my consciousness early in life and I've loved their music like personal anthems ever since. Actually, the songs are more than personal anthems, they were often lifelines. Truly. And I thank them and wish them health and joy in their golden years.

[@hueman3840]

Dearest & beloved friend - I've been sailing with you long before The Lee Shore - but you have reached it 1st. Please whisper back in the morning breeze - tell me that all will be well.

[@MellowWind]

I still marvel how fortunate we were to be surrounded/saturated by such an embarassment of riches of the era. David's voice, Graham's harmony - what more could you ask for?

[@Herziful]

It seems like I‘m coming back every week and I don‘t get tired of this song. David and Graham create a beautiful atmosphere with Lee Shore. Everyone can feel the freedom, beauty and slowness of a journey on a ship through the Caribbean Sea.

[@sirbarnabyst.johntoffingto9017]

Without any doubt nor fear of any contradiction one of the best songs EVER!

[@helenjohnson7724]

I just found this,and I absolutely love it

[@emilobe]

My heart aches when I listen to this Song. 😍😢

[@morgancatherwood5665]

I was born 10 months and 10 days after this performance - wasn't even alive yet, but I miss those days - immeasurably better than now

[@mauricepowers8079]

Exquisite harmony and musicianship...Nobody could write a song like David...one of the best male vocalists alive and he and Graham were the perfect duo.

[@johnmoss1498]

I have loved the music of David Crosby for decades. This is the first time I have heard this song. Nothing has changed except I have added a new song to my favorites list. Thank you for this post.

[@jbm0729]

It doesn't get much better then this

[@RajiMudra]

and this is Lee Shore , music and lyrics David Crosby , here in is most glorious pure voice , I used to sing and play this song long ago. Still brings tears to my eyes . Such beauty. Farewell David Crosby , Yumma . “Wheel gull spin and glide You've got no place to hide It's 'cause you don't need one All along the Lee Shore Shells lie scattered in the sand Winking up like shining eyes at me From the sea Here is one like sunrise Older than you know It's still lying there, where some careless wave Forgot it long ago When I awoke this morning Dove beneath my floating home Down below her graceful side in the turning tide To watch the sea fish roam And there I heard a story From the sailors of the Sandra Marie There's another island eight days' run away from here And it's empty and free From here to Venezuela There's nothing more to see Than a hundred thousand islands flung like jewels upon the sea For you and me Sunset smells of dinner Women are calling at me to end my tales But perhaps I'll see you the next quiet place I furl my sails”

[@moragmacgregor6792]

02:22 Crosby looks so wistful it hurts my heart. Or maybe that's just me projecting what I know went on in Crosby's life onto his face. Willie has a rare gift for harmony. Lovely.

[@futuropasado]

Delicate, beautiful... Croz best song and one of the most mystic ever made... made of dreams, another world

[@amandaprus5552]

So Beautiful! Especially David's voice. Wish they could be together a again. Such talent.

[@amandaprus5552]

This is from Audrey Prus not Amanda Prus.

[@LeeeShore]

...how I will always remember them.

[@drop51]

Wow, never ever listen to any of them before (CSYN) but this is just So Beautiful. What a find!

[@Angietony]

Crosby is the best - stoned or otherwise! His guitar playing has a distinct sound like Roger McGuinn. Beautiful melody and lyrics. My favorite - thanks for posting!

[@Ploobstill]

this is one of my favorite things in the whole world.

[@BuffaloC305]

January 21, 2023... two days after David's passing. This is one of those first-noticed-Croz songs for me. TRIAD... strange picking styles, strange tunings, amazing harmonies. And how I wish they'd put cameras in the IF I COULD ONLY REMEMBER recording studios at the time. sigh

[@TheRainforestt]

im a seaman and i played this song in every part of world i been .. and there is not so much places i havent been ..

[@smeghead1851]

Crosby said he used to go to sea to dry out and clean up... it's why many sailors went out in the old days . It takes a pretty big person to brave the ocean in a small boat. Granted that Mayan (Crosby's schooner), was designed and built by John Alden, who knew a thing or two about boat deisgn. But you never know what you're gonna run into out there. Thank you for posting this, it 's always been one of my favorites.

[@fabbrofandango]

Best song I hear since a long time. Great melody, perfect voices, magic guitars, it takes me away to a lonely shore. Can't stop listening!

[@patriciapaquette1199]

RIP David Crosby........you live still within each & everyone of us xxxxxxx

[@RayChapman]

this is a thing of beauty, art. nothing more, nothing less. fills the heart.

[@thekarmafarmer608]

We all miss you already. You flew the freak flag for so long. A hero. ...perhaps I'll see you the next quiet place I furl my sails. RIP

[@vgfxworks]

This song never fail to amazes me.. how it begins is astonishing, the harmonies and lyrics are stunning.

[@poppyorsini9175]

such a beautiful song. such a beautiful voice thanks so much for posting!

[@lencervo8130]

Great song, the harmony of these two is amazing!!! Thanks for posting.

[@marvluse8147]

A great performance of a marvelous song. They don't make 'em like this anymore.

[@rfranklinw1]

So what if he was high??? This is beautiful. The drugs cannot be allowed to detract from the beauty of this man.

[@dreamyblue44]

Puts me in touch with feeling free, alive and aware, ever new :)

[@olivierbolton8683]

RIP David Crosby...your voice will still on

[@michaelm4021]

Beautiful song...

[@johnlachmann6308]

Just two men and two guitars creating such a beautiful piece.

[@johnfaherty340]

Such beautiful harmony and a wonderful example of the poetry ( sunset smells of dinner!) that came from Crosby. Awesome!

[@PocoPortillo]

What a great song and story. David Crosby...just mind blowing vocals that always amaze me.

[@rockdinosaur666]

Switch off the lights, put this on the stereo and just relax. One of their best.

[@MrRichmiles]

These guys, and Stephen, know things about vocal harmony that nobody else has ever even imagined. I love this song. Have loved these musicians since about 1971. Beautiful music.

[@Taiko2046]

what a beautiful voice. david Crosby.

[@alicenc]

You often see pure amazement on their faces in these videos at the soudn that THEY are making together! They amaze themselves and take JOY in it...it's a beautiful thing!

[@linjicakonikon7666]

Of all the songs that came out of rhe CSNY musical legacy in all its various individual and combinations, this is my favorite. My favorite song from my favorite member in that group. Crosby was certainly a troubled, angry, rebellious man but he had his moments of longing that were revealed in songs like Delta, Guinevere and this exquisite song, Leeshore."... ...From here to Venezuela...."

[@ic751a55]

Ahhh, this sounded so gooood among the Redwoods by the lake. At least half the people at the campground wanted to hear it again and again... Wooden music as Levi calls it. 'Perfect' does just fine for me. Thank you David, for sharing some wondrous facets of your Soul I hope Heaven is filled with these sounds

[@billwelshombmusic]

This is what music is all about...fantastic... THANK YOU......

[@reginaltkoralewski2944]

Pamiętam ten czas jak to było nowoscią !- i do teraz ich słucham - solo i we dwoje i w komplecie CSN&Young - Nieśmiertelni - Rengi from od Poland!🤠👍🎸🗽

[@bonniebucklaw5326]

Inspired. Magical.

[@worldissuesmatter1643]

When I was in uni, I used to spend Saturdays going down to the used record store, I remember buying Crosby Nash album. I probably have it still

[@andrewdutton2583]

how good are these two! Love Crosby's voice and lyrically genius...

[@ceramicmug8500]

See you in the next quiet place, Mr Crosby. You have furled your sail for the last time on this Earth and will be so missed. Thanks for sharing your music with all of us. Thank you especially for this song, that transports me to another place every time I listen.

[@gulfgypsy]

Wheel gull spin and glide ... you've got no place to hide 'Cause you don't need one All along the Lee shore Shells lie scattered in the sand Winking up like shining eyes, at me From the sea Such perfect harmonies and such sublime lyrics .........
