The recent passing of  David Crosby: 1941 - 2023 brought a wide range of tributes to "Croz"  from so many great musicians, writers, fans and others remembering  Crosby’s massive influence on the music from the 1960's and onward. 

Here is an excerpt of a recent in interview with  Graham Nash on reconciliation with David Crosby from "Graham Nash Remembers David Crosby: ‘He Was Remarkably Unique’ " | AARP  by Rob Tannenbaum:

Graham Nash: I think one of the only things that we can do, particularly me, is only try to remember the good times. Try to remember the great music that we made. I’m only going to be interested in the good times, because if I concentrate on the bad times, it gets too weird for me.

AARP: By weird do you mean painful?

Graham Nash:  Yes, painful.

The fact is that we were getting a little closer at the end. He had sent me a voicemail saying that he wanted to talk to apologize, and could we set up a time to talk. I emailed him back and said, “Okay, call me at eleven o’clock tomorrow your time, which is two o’clock on the East Coast.” He never called, and then he was gone.

Graham Nash:  David’s gift was the unbelievable uniqueness of him as a musician. Crosby was very jazz influenced in his early days. He played in tunings that were very strange, ribbons that were very strange.

...

His death is like an earthquake: You know that you’re in an earthquake, but subsequently, other smaller earthquakes happen afterwards. His death has been like that. It was only two or three days after he passed that I realized that he was actually gone.

Graham Nash:  [Crosby's contact] was very significant for me. It made David’s death a little easier for me, because I realized that we were going to get together later in his life. Crosby was my dear friend, my best friend for over 50 years. I can only concentrate on the good stuff, Rob. Our reaction to his comments about Neil’s wife and the other things that separated David from us — but if he was willing to call me and apologize for what he had done and how he had hurt me, it made his death a little easier for me to accept.

Off topic. End of March a new album will be released or rather a compilation of songs by Crazy Horse members with additional personell in various configurations. The album's title is "Molina Talbot Lofgren Young: All Roads Lead Home. A Nils Lofgren song can be heard on NYA now. Obviously they could not call it a Crazy Horse album because there are other bands involved such as the Billy Talbot Band.
