FFS ! And on that basis where do you place Mr Crosby in your bizarre hierarchy ?
Well quit obviously above EVH. I can tolerate almost any music of any genre EVH is one of very few bands that get turned off outright due to full shiteness of the music. Actually I take that back I turn it off because it’s exceptionally bland. Hailing him as some sort of influence on every hard rock and metal band that followed is hilarious.
For absolute clarity though it’s a meh from me for David Crosby and I quite like the Byrd’s and CSNY. It’s just old musicians who didn’t change the world by dying. It’s far sadder when young people like Scott John Hutchison and Amy Winehouse die early because they die early and it could be argued were not helped by their success i don’t even like Winehouse’s music at all.
And by meh I don’t mean I am happy anyone dies it’s just not that relevant.
My opinion of course.
