Stop trying to stifle the truth.
You're the one who created the GTOs thread anyway.

This albums starting to drift, it's a nice sound, but it getting obvious it's missing something.
Songs.

Crosby is really just a singer.
He needs strong songwriters - visionaries - to bring out the best in his voice.
This is obviously a case of Laurel Canyon superstars dropping by now and then and jamming, but with no clear songwriting leader to make a proper album of it.

He really was an outstanding singer.
He really really needed songwriters and collaborators of repute to help him realise the extent of of his talent.

It is over.
That was the most boring album I've ever heard. It didn't even try to be interesting.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

Shall I tell you what I though when I first heard the C, S & N album?
I though this was great, like Simon and Garfunkel but with 3 voices blended together, and was even better, Then on closer inspection, there were no songs there, well there were, but slight ones. It was obvious Neil Young was the talented one, and those other would have made a good backing singers for him.

He had that in the Byrds and CSN/Y, but beyond that he couldn't function as an artist.
I think the collective - and ultimately destructively hedonistic - community sense was what drove him creatively.
He wasn't in himself a very creative person.
In some respects he wasn't a million miles away from Rod Stewart in that respect.
Rod never let himself go in quite the same spectacular American way however...

Even more boring than the Peter Hammill album from last night?
