An Evening with Graham Nash & Wild Tales

Graham Nash and Bob Spitz
Library of Congress, Washington, DC - 9/16/13

Last week, we had Neil Young in town. Tonight, Graham Nash appeared at the Library of Congress, in Washington, DC to discuss his new book Wild Tales.

Graham focused his remarks primarily on his period with The Hollies, his musical influences, and leaving the band to form Crosby, Stills & Nash. He also discussed meeting Joni Mitchell and various aspects of their relationship. Also, a fair amount of memories of David Crosby -- his "most rewarding and complicated relationship."

Otherwise, the obligatory Neil Young content was that Neil had called Graham several days ago to invite him to perform at the Bridge concerts with CSNY in October. "Neil doesn't waste words", Nash said. Nash spoke briefly on the 1974 live concert box set and says that he has 11 tracks left to mix.


To Susan: Teach Your children well. Graham Nash

    His "most rewarding and difficult relationship"

    That is sweet!

    All the things Willy must have endured and to still have his walrus-mustached friend alive and kicking!
