Marty Balin

I just say: "Comin' Back to me," one of the greatest masterpieces by J.A., is all his work. After "Surrealistic Pillow," he stepped back a bit in terms of composition, but he remained essential. His absence in albums like "Bark" and "Long John Silver" is definitely noticeable. Then he also kind of drifted off with the Starship, but who cares. Truly amazing.
