Only available on vinyl in the US. For his highly anticipated 1971 solo debut David Crosby recorded a unique eclectic and willfully expansive album. The cream of early-70s California rock is assembled here withthe various celebrities joining together in an organic collective approach that s embodied in the opener the free-spirited jam of Music Is Love . Throughout the record Crosby moves from the sauntering Western shuffle of Cowboy Movie to the wondrously spiritual harmonies of Tamalpais High (AtAbout 3) and eventually the hallowed chants of I d Swear There Was Somebody Here . Musically the album has an exploratory almost jazzy feel with it s bright production cloaking the listener in acoustic strains and lush layered harmonies. These qualities perfectly evoke the relaxed hazy California lifestyle of the time. For all it s dreaminess though IF I COULD ONLY REMEMBER MY NAME rarely missteps and thehaunting melancholy of songs like Laughing and Orleans give the record a depth and durability that surpasses other recordings of the time. The result is an excellent highly underrated album.
