David Crosby If Only I Could Remember My Name

A GREAT recording! Maybe David's best work! I have TWO copies of the LP! Sonics on it are EXCELLENT - a long-time favorite of Harry Pearson!

My copy no. 3 is lost somewhere in my large LP collection. This was the first one I bought some years ago from Good Will. A lucky find then, for sure ($1) !!!

Agreed!

I have the CD and enjoy it very much. Have also played it for my (young adult) kids, they sat quietly through it - maybe surprising themselves.

...can only imagine what a decent vinyl version would be like.

cd is OK quality, but musically? ---easy to argue its better than anything CSN(y) did. what a record. 

and that pic of him w/ the red background staring into the camera? ---if you needed foreshadowing of him getting busted for drugs, that pic was it. 

Agree, great album.  I like all CSNY solo efforts better than collective efforts.   

Long a well known sonic treat- I think it was on the old HP list. 

I have the Rhino LP, and an early US press. The latter sounds better to my ears. I just passed up a RED label first CAN pressing. It was a tad noisy, so I stuck with what I have. I offered the store owner $25, and he said no. I think he had $35 on it, which would have been less for me since I was in CAN from US. Anyway, love this LP. Funny, I listened to Paul Kantner/Jeff Starship: Blows Against the Empire just last night. Not a bad sounding LP, but not in the league of the CROZ: IICORMN. Many of the same artists on the Kantner record... The Dead, CSN... No Joni Mitchell though. It's a trippy listen. I will return to it (-: 

Didn't Classic Records do a pressing of the album?

bdp24- Yes- haven't heard that one. 

Didn’t Classic Records do a pressing of the album?

Yes, I have a couple of copies. I also have an original US pressing and an original UK pressing and a German copy.

Long a well known sonic treat- I think it was on the old HP list

It’s still on the Super List.


IMHO, the Classic is the better sounding of all of them, followed by the German version.

Excellent album.

SpeakersCorner is very good as is Garcia's pedal steel on Laughing. 

SpeakersCorner is very good

I don't think that Speakers Corner did this release?  I have quite a few of their albums and couldn't find this one in my collection or even listed anywhere.

I did find that I have both the Classic 33 1/3 & the 45RPM versions.

+1 for JG on Laughing.  Otherworldly and beautiful.

Yeah...
OK, so I guess I'm not the only one around here who loves this record!
Thanks for the responses.  I think I will hunt down a Rhino reissue of it to compare to the original I have.  Always fun to compare.
Peace!
