Much enjoying Laurel Canyon. Part 2 is on tomorrow night at 22:55. No further transmission of Part 1 scheduled at the moment.

The docu about David Crosby “Remember My Name” is on this evening. Not otherwise available in the U.K. I believe

Thanks for that.

Yes, but...

...poor misunderstood Judee Sill was, surprise surprise, ignored once again. IMO she had more natural talent as a singer-songwriter than her more famous contemporaries in the Canyon. She had toured with Graham Nash and David Crosby as their opening act, which she found demeaning. David Geffen signed her to Asylum Records in its infancy but he'd probably decided she was going to be too much trouble for an adequate commercial return. I notice his current worth is $9.2 billion. Judee died alone in drugged penury aged 35.

There were several notable absences from those interviewed in LC as well as from the musicians featured.

This Crosby film has been a tough watch in places and I now really regret missing his gig a couple of years ago in London. Tempus fugit.

Sorry - #72 corrected. I shall be recording both concerts.

Good to see our very own Il Grande Inquisitor interviewed extensively in the hour-long documentary about Jessye Norman (though I note that he hasn’t posted since 2018 )
