Who NEEDS Neil Young here? This is Crosby and Nash's own space. And it's one of their best. (Yours, a top NY fan)

Another one of those songs that begs, screams, and shouts for an uncompressed file and a bona fide hi-fi rig. The depth of space is amazing. I'll disagree re the rest of the album—IMHO they are not up to the standard set by this track. |

I agree IICORMN is simply amazing; "Laughing" is Crosbys' single best composition; Lesh's bass growls like a bear and Garcia's pedal steel solo (a first take, I've read) sends chills down my spine every time. The list of supporting artists (sometimes reffed to as PERRO) is stellar. Having seen Crosby and Nash earlier in 2011 (front row seats in a smallish community venue!) I'd like to say Crosbys' animation, stage presence, but most particularly the strength of his vocals, is the best I've experienced in years (throughout this century anyway, first time in was in oh '75 I think) IMHO :) |

Listen to Randy Newman's "Political Science" ten times and say five Hail Marys. As seductive as isolationism can be, the world is far too connected and dependent on economic, security and ecological planes to every contemplate this move. Sure could stand some help, though. |

On another comments for a CSNY song someone said they thought these two guys were riding on the coat tails of the other two. and suggested Crosby couldn't sing. This is evidence of the talent these two have. I love listening to them sing together.

As narrow a viewpoint as that might seem to some, I agree. Sort of like, "Clean the poop out of your own nest before you try to show someone else how to build one." Humans are a short-memoried species. We forget from day to day, and never mind year to year or decade to decade. We need constant reminders of past atrocities, for our own good - otherwise, we'd let propaganda, half-truths, and an overly-controlling higher power convince us that Vietnam never happened. The Holocaust never happened. Pearl Harbor and Hiroshima never happened. Mark Twain never used the word "nigger" in his writing. Oh, geez - I just went all political, when what I really wanted to do was comment about the beauty of this song, this album, and those soaring vocals. I love Nasby and Crosh.  |

Kind of proves why washed-up drunken idiots should deserve a new liver—Crosby has done so much given an extra 20 years of life.
