Jason Brayshaw You were at 30 likes. I hit thumbs up and then it said 40

lmfao

i wasn't ready for that

@@FornusSomeFornit None of us were

😆

I was thinking he should do a cameo or two in some Lord of the Rings type movies.

@@BobMeyers He should do the 1000 year old man routine with Alan Greenspan.

@@BobMeyers Perhaps "The Walking Dead."

He doesn’t look a day over a hundred. Colorful story teller tho- The imitation at Coltrane’s soloing was great

I couldn't get it to Zedge...but I did convert his 5 second little ditty to a sound file. How do I get it to you?

Sent!

Frank Green yo I need it also

@@frankgreen8137 Hey I'd love it too haha

I need your emails to send it

It’s even better at .25 speed 💀

It's AWFUL slower. Ugh.

And Trane probably gently opened the door and played a c major triad

Hahaha I can totally see that

@@sinane.y 😂😂

@@sinane.y I was thinking something along those lines too LMAO

Yep 1st thing I thought when I saw this is how he looks much older here than Ive seen as late

He's currently 78, and considering his previous lifestyle, very lucky to have lived this long.

@@lancejohnson127 2nd? 2nd liver?

😂

yeah dude

Old hippie in him.. I'm surprised he didn't say far out

Thats what 74 year old mfs say

Oh wow man. If ONLY!

Coltrane.

@@rayjr62 Baaam!!!

Most likely acid from the way he described the experience😂😂

Neil G. To my knowledge, he was actually in the bathroom.

Neil G. A lot of sax players warm up in toilets before punters come into gigs

Not sure yet. I’m gonna listen one more time.

Yes all of us sax players prefer practicing in toilets for the acoustics . You can hear so much better , even over tones the sax is creating

@@znmaf They do it that way when warming up so they can hear all the overtones and harmonics clearly.

RIP David Crosby

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story. Still laughed my nutsack off.

Everything he said correlates too many stories that have been told. John Coltrane was known for kicking in the bathroom door and playing well McCoy Tyner or Elvin Jones or Jimmy Garrison took a solo

Maybe you don't really exist...You just think you do.

@@jcarc5701 I wish your comment didn't exist ...lol

If your lucky you’ll get so old too.

@ Iam old. Only good thing about it is I didnt die young

Arthur F. Scaltrito also around that time check Miles Davis’s version of Crosby’s “Guinevere”...there were other moments of those two worlds coming together that aren’t often talked abt but there was mutual inspiration for sure 🎶 💨

@@usernolongervisible9334 OK. I will

Not surprised at all

Also, he is almost certainly talking about a performance from Coltrane's late period, when his playing sounded a lot like Crosby's vocal imitation. Coltrane's music, in the two or three years before his passing, was very harsh and corrosive, and generally not what jazz fans think of when they think of Coltrane. I made the mistake of buying a 1965 live Coltrane album, when I was in college and just getting interested in jazz, and I was completely appalled and dumbfounded at what I was hearing. It was insane music, and I do not mean that as praise. And yes, I am sure it was "intense" to a stoned hippie hearing it live and in person.

Enlightened Rogue listen to interstellar Coltrane . No room for squares , no one plays sax like trane .

@@Cespinozas Well put, Carlos.

This story just doesn’t add up. Sorry. Nothing to do with jealousy. Just Crosby trying to act like he is still hop mentioning black jazz musicians

@@greenwoodmills1381 Totally agree with you. It also kind of comes off as a backhanded way of complimenting Trane while making him look like a violent jerk at the same time.

@josef mengele says the great david crosby defender

josef mengele it wouldn’t take much to make up a better story than this pile of duck tales.

@josef mengele You actually chose the name Josef Mengele? Care to explain?

It's not too late to make up for lost time.

@@traildoggy mm i think for most as you get older you have less interest in doing illegal things? perhaps not for crosby tho lol

Check back with us when you've attained his level of accomplishment - we'll see how you compare. I'm a little biased - I interviewed him once for our local paper, knowing full well his reputation for being an egomaniac asshole, and found him to be open, humble and gracious. He comped me the best seats in the house for his gig, and the guy who has sold millions of albums and performed for millions more with some of the greatest musicians in the world thanked ME for doing the interview. I'll use that as a measuring stick when we next hear from you...

And a political idiot!

@@roberteckert - Thanks for your admission that YOU are a political idiot. Crosby has consistently been on the right side of history - and you, evidently, relish being on the wrong side...

@Jim McCracken - I'm not as dim as you seem to think I am; the interview was not a puff piece, but I was prepared and had my facts straight. He was self-effacing and acknowledged his shortcomings as a human and a bandmate - and frankly a star of his stature has little to gain kissing up to a reporter for a relatively small-town paper on the eve of a one night solo gig. I have a fuller knowledge of the entertainment business and entertainers than you obviously imagine; my best friend is a very well-known writer-director in Hollywood, my former sister-in-law was a HUGE tv star, and I've been around gigging musicians for many years (that's why I got the interview gig) - I know fakes and phonies abound. Crosby may be difficult, he may be an asshole to some - but he'll be the first to admit it; THAT'S almost unheard of in the entertainment industry...

@Jim McCracken - Jim, you're just looking to land some kind of blow because I torched you. You have nothing of consequence to say, otherwise you'd have said it by now. You've made it clear you think I'm dumb, or star-struck, but frankly, your posts only make YOU look dumb. I'm not in the entertainment industry, but I've had front row seats to it for years and years - I've met more heavies, been on more movie sets, and backstage at more clubs, concerts, and events than you can imagine - not to mention my nephew, who was a NHL hockey player. MANY people of extremely high achievement are not exactly the warm and fuzzy type - entertainer, athlete, politician, soldier, or executive. I know what I'm talking about - and trust me, whatever you have to say isn't gonna change that or keep me up at night...

come back and watch in about 10 years kid when you mature a little more and you'll understand it..

@@truckerkevthepaidtourist i'm 74 , and remember "then" , good drugs , mind blown , etc. the story stinks , because only a fanboy gives a shit about a 60 yr. old trip......unless you're STILL needing confirmation , like peddling hemp as a cure for the planet , when pot's legal now move on

I think Dave has been off the drugs for quite some time.

Trane.

@@jakebrandt5882 You win

Probably some potent medical stuff 😁

@josef mengele go perform some more surgery without anesthesia

Most likely

Trane is gone? lmao

Jazz is gone, son? Someone forgot to tell me and millions of others around the world. 🌎 🎷🔊🎶🎵☝️🥴

Enlightened Rogue It’s gone in the sense that classical music is gone, yes. Of course-of course-we can all enjoy the artifacts of the form but that’s all it is now, artifact. Disagree if you want, that’s how it seems to me

Jazz gone?? You need to rethink that.

@@andrews127 It's a relic now, that's what I mean. It is no longer a viable cultural force. In 1967 Coltrane recorded Interstellar Space and in 70 Miles released Bitches Brew--both these were way, way, beyond Giants Steps or Kind of Blue. Jazz doesn't facilitate this kind of journey as a cultural force anymore. What we have now are the Marsalis brothers in really nice suits, very talented and easy on the ears, but it's hard to argue it matters culturally. I don't think there are any teenagers out there sitting in their bedroom with a pair of headphones on being transported by listening to the music of Wynton Marsalis. What I'm saying is everyone is just sitting around staring at their phone--that's the cultural relevance of the world nowadays. That's it

My exact post. Lol
