DAVID CROSBY
"IF I COULD ONLY REMEMBER MY NAME''
A really stunning copy of this amazing album!
The record is in stunning museum quality condition and to find a copy in this condition as well as with the elusive Obi Sash is just extraordinary.
I cannot emphasise enough just how rare the Obi is to find they just never turn up!
Thanks to his much-publicised personal travails, it's easy to overlook the multiple talents that originally made Crosby a star in his days with The Byrds and Crosby, Stills and Nash. This, his first solo effort, was recorded in 1971 (following Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's Deja Vu) and contains some of his most impressive vocal and songwriting work, including the haunting "Laughing", the mantra-like "Music Is Love" and the extended, impressionistic "Cowboy Movie". With guest appearances by such famous friends as Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Grace Slick and Jerry Garcia, it's a fascinating chapter in an always-interesting career that's all too often been overshadowed by headlines.

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BIDDING!
From my own personal collection assembled over 25+ years with constant upgrading whenever available so this is a unique opportunity to acquire a pristine example of a RARE and COLLECTIBLE LP that has been lovingly cared for.
All LP covers were stored in the highest quality plastic sleeves and the records stored in separate archival white inners out of the cover to prevent damage to the original sleeves and ring wear of the record through to the original cover.
Lots of rarities will be listed over the coming weeks and you will be hard pressed to improve on these as I was relentless in the pursuit of the finest examples at whatever cost!!!!!
THIS IS A REAL ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY. ONCE THEY'RE GONE, THEY'RE GONE!!
