Amazing album. Keep coming back to man in the mirror
also be yourself at the end of up in the air made the movie more tolerable imo

Songs For Beginners is really terrific.
It looks like the box set, Reflections, came out a year ago already. I missed that. I don't know much about him after the second Crosby / Nash album, but there looks to be a fair bit of material from later than that on the set. I've no idea how promising it is.

ok ^^^ clip is really astonishing; "Simple Man" is my favorite song on the debut but the sax on the chorus mars it just a bit, so this is good, & the vocal is just as tender & reaching. I love it when Crosby enters: he looks so sinister but he means well, this time.
or iow:

What is this "first self-titled" Jaxon speaks of?
Another big fan of "Songs for Beginners" right here.

Just saw him live last night w/ a band that had an organist and a guitarist. Still sounds good at age 78. Did two one hour sets. Hollies “Bus Stop”, lots from 1st solo album, Beatles “A Day in the Life,” Buddy Holly “Everyday”, “Ohio,”, CSNY songs plus some good stories, left wing politics and he expressed his belief that Joni Mitchell will recover and create more, and that the pendulum will swing back leftward politically

lol i came here to post that the place where i work now is attached to a music venue and he played there last night. same as above -- 2 60-min sets with a break in between, same instrumentation. the people coming out of the show were raving about what good shape he's in. he's there for another night and i work tonight as well so i am going to try to poke my head in and listen a little.

Listening to this makes me wonder how much of Neil Young is Tim Drummond. Specifically, that bass on "Hey You"

Innocent Eyes is a megajam. Not a Nash original. It was written by keyboard player Paul Bliss.

I suspected the synth-boomer stuff would earn reappraisal.
