The End
David Crosby was, in my opinion, a truly great musician. His musical tastes after CSN&Y were all ones I could agree with, except for his strong prejudice against the Doors. Maybe it was a personal matter with Morrison, or perhaps because they didn’t have a bass player, or who knows. I say that a band capable of creating such a track cannot be dismissed as “bad” (that’s how Crosby described them in an interview). The End is a concentrate of lysergic psychedelia taken to the extreme, a modern bolero with sounds that go beyond the era in which they were created. For me, it’s one of the most significant tracks in rock.
