I just love Graham Nash. How delightful it was to get my hands on this wonderful re-release! It sounds wonderful, better than the I-Tunes version I had to settle for for a while. I agree about Wild Tales being criminally underrated, too.

Second favorite to Nash today - Neil Young’s 2008 performance of ‘Only Love Can Break Your Heart’ on YouTube.

‘Songs ‘ held several favorites for me. I played Simple Man for a couple of years, loving its sentiment during those fragile days (personally and politically) but would have to cite ‘I Used To Be A King’ as my longtime favorite off the LP, probably because its sonics fit in well along side of Crosby’s ‘If Only…” LP and several of the cuts off ‘Deja Vu’ and THAT would be mostly because of Jerry Garcia’s stellar Pedal Steel work, always underated, even by himself. He may have been one of the most ‘unconsciously’ influential musicians ever.

“Page 43″ from “Graham Nash & David Crosby”. Crosby’s voice never sounded better

…just because we are getting close to an election: The Robert Kennedy inspired song “Long Time Gone” has been on my playlist lately.

Since this is about Graham Nash’s “Songs for Beginners”…
I have to say the whole LP… not any single song, or single
from the album. I have a great memory associated with
this song and listening to it on an empty snowy day with
a friend that I had just met while this was playing at the bar
… simply priceless. The LP is seamless, timeless and now
coming back around again as the Democratic Convention
recently ended and Peace and better times are hopefully
ahead. This album is just as important and relevant now
as it was back in 1971. Simple album. Graham’s best.

Almost Cut My Hair is my favorite. The guitar stacatto bursts always bring me smile.
Original vinyl rules!

my fav track has to be the Crosby sung “Lee Shore” which is on the 4 disc CSN box. Its so soothing and calm with the most gorgeous lyrics. I can just imagine being on their sailboat skimming arcross the water at sunset when I listen to it…

Graham related? I love The Sleep Song and Another Sleep Song (from Wild Tales).

And Wild Tales is a criminally underrated album.
