GRAHAM NASH DISCUSSES DAVID CROSBY’S SOLO DEBUT ”IF I COULD ONLY REMEMBER MY NAME” (Ep. 233)

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives.  In this episode, Graham Nash discusses David Crosby’s classic solo debut If I Could Only Remember My Name with commentary and stories. Discograffiti’s Wild Tales: The Graham Nash Interview Series tackles every last release the great Graham Nash ever had a hand in creating, including CSN/Y, C&N, and his solo career, detailing a history almost too wild to be believed. 

Here are just a few of the many things that Graham discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

• An overview of the initial spate of CSNY solo projects, and how they all performed relative to one another;
• The origin story of the Planet Earth Rock & Roll Orchestra, and the albums on which this massive aggregate of legendary musicians have appeared (in the Director’s Cut only);
• The only track on which Neil Young and Jerry Garcia are both playing guitar;
• How Jerry Garcia wound up being the hero of Remember My Name, and what exactly David & The Dorks was;
• The massive boatload of Crosby’s session outtakes, all of which is top-notch quality;
• The outstanding financial debt for which Croz is still on the hook to Graham; 
• Jerry Garcia’s favorite of his own pedal steel guitar performances;
• And an in-depth deep dive on every song that comprises David Crosby’s If I Could Only Remember My Name, including David’s own lyrical analyses!
