I am still amazed he made it passed 60 to be honest with you JK.

If I Could Only Remember My Name was one of the first Americana albums I bought when I was a youth. In my opinion Stephen Stills is the most talented one from CSN(Y). David Crosby didn't do much song writing.

Don't agree GM. I thought Graham Nash's amazing harmonies MADE The Hollies and combined with Crosby were incredible.

Whistling Down The Wire is a fantastic and a very underrated album.

I mean from a song-writing perspective JK. I love Graham Nash and I have seen him live a few times and I did see CSN live a several times in the 80's.

Even the post Nash Hollies were very good also especially Another Night album from the mid 70's.

For me one of the best and most under rated groups of the 60s.

Los Angeles in the 60s had a fantastic music scene. I remember meeting Harry Nilssen in Davy Jones' house before he'd recorded anything but demos. And Danny Hutton (went on to be 3 Dog Night).

Please please do not tell me anything that isn't nice about Davy Jones. I couldn't bear it.

That is cool. I have only heard positive things about Danny Hutton. (My friends in America used to travel to see Three Dog Night across nation) Danny Hutton still tours and has formed a new touring band with veteran touring member Paul Kingery. I wish they came to the UK for a one off tour.

For me the underrated 60's band is Manfred Mann people only listen to the hits not the deep cut blues songs or b-sides.

Davy was lovely - we were great friends; sadly he never wanted us to be lovers.

Was Davy in the closest JK? I was told by a promoter that Davy was an enigma he could get angry on the smallest thing. However when Davy was in a good mood he was fun to be with I was told by the same man.

I saw Peter Tork live at intimate gig in Long Island. Which was great entertainment and he certainly had an unique voice.

It's a shame he didn't much success post Monkees. He certainly knew how to play guitar, keyboards and banjo.
