More than a year after the death of David Crosby, the music he made with Stephen Stills and Graham Nash will be saluted in a tribute concert at New York’s Carnegie Hall this spring.
Set for May 13, the show — simply titled “The Music of Crosby, Stills and Nash” — will present interpretations of both group and solo songs by an eclectic lineup, including genre-fluid singer Yola; classic rock visionary Todd Rundgren; singer-songwriters Shawn Colvin, Rickie Lee Jones, and Aoife O’Donovan; indie rockers Iron & Wine and Real Estate; and jam-rock vanguard Grace Potter.

The fifth episode of Masters of the Air was one of the most intense chapters in the tapestry of the whole show. Egan was back and willing to go on another mission, and it was clear he didn’t care if he survived. He just wanted to drop another bomb and make the Germans pay, partly because they had taken his dear friend Cleven away. The change in attitude was the most striking, as Egan went from something of an idealistic man to a reckless figure who just wanted to deal damage, irrespective of what he was damaging. The newbies also got a taste of the missions; there was a panic, and Rosenthal, one of the newest recruits, saw what he had signed up for.
Spoilers Ahead
Why Had Egan Returned?
Egan’s return implied that another mission had been planned, and while Blakely was on his way back from the Bremen mission,...

Tyrannical and brilliant, director Michael Curtiz created film legends out of mere stars, and turned movies into myth. Here are some of his greatest films.
When movie enthusiasts think of legendary director Michael Curtiz, the first thing that pops into their mind is Casablanca (1942), consistently named to, and occasionally topping, lists of the greatest films of all time. Although if we’re being honest, most people think of it as a Humphrey Bogart movie. The same could be said of Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) and The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938). These are known for their stars, James Cagney, and Errol Flynn, the latter of whom Curtiz put on the map with Captain Blood (1935). In the director’s hands, actors and characters merged into a mythology which exceeded mere signature roles, becoming universal symbols.

Tl;Dr:
John Lennon said one of his No. 1 songs just came to him. He said it would have sounded clichéd except “now clichés are not clichés anymore.” The tune sounds more like a 1950s Elvis Presley rock ‘n’ roll song than a traditional pop Crosby song.
One of John Lennon‘s No. 1 songs was inspired by Bing Crosby. In addition, it’s a lot more tender than other solo John songs. John revealed what he felt about soft-hearted tunes.
John Lennon wrote 1 of his No. 1 songs when he was in Bermuda
The book All We Are Saying: The Last Major Interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono features an interview from 1980. In it, John was asked to start talking about his song “(Just Like) Starting Over.”
“Appropriate enough,” he said. “Á la Bing Crosby. Well, ‘Starting Over’ and ‘Cleanup Time’ were sorta written on the run after I’d...

When Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham broke up, she found solace in a Joni Mitchell song. Their split was tumultuous; many of the hits from the Rumours album were a product of their messy relationship dynamics. Nicks said that at the end of her relationship with Buckingham, at a time when she thought her career was on thin ice, she laid on the floor for days and listened to Mitchell’s album Court and Spark. Here’s the song that brought her comfort.

He’s responsible for several classic rock hits, but several rock stars still hate Neil Young. Maybe not as much as he hated sharing a streaming platform with Joe Rogan (Young pulled his catalog from Spotify), but it’s a close race. Though several bands revere the Canadian singer and guitarist, several musicians hate Young’s music, including Beatles legend George Harrison.

David Crosby spent years playing alongside Young in the sporadically active folk rock supergroup Crosby, Still, Nash & Young. The collective made some beautiful songs together, but Crosby hated Young.
“Well, he’s probably the most self-centered, self-obsessed, selfish person I know,” Crosby told The Guardian in 2021. “He only thinks about Neil, period. That’s the only person he’ll consider. Ever!”

The Beatles‘ songs have been covered over and over. Some of those Beatles covers are horrible. For example, a famous comedian took a stab at a song from Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and the results were catastrophic.

Bill Cosby was successful in the worlds of television, advertising, and film, but music was not his forte. It really, really, wasn’t his forte. His cover of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” is some of the most embarrassing noise you’ll ever hear.
Cosby doesn’t sing the song so much as speak it in a coarse voice. It sounds like someone doing a strained Cosby impression. The backup singers here sound like The Supremes all suffering from strep throat. The cover is less than three minutes long but feels like an eternity.
