David Crosby if I Could Only Remember My Name Rock Music CD Review

Author: Clyde Lee Dennis

One word describes the CD If I Could Only Remember My Name from David Crosby… AWESOME!

It’s a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I’m more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply is NOT a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all, with each song standing tall on it’s own.

One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you’ve got one of David Crosby’s most impressive releases ever.

If you’re even mildly into Rock music you’ll enjoy this album. Overall If I Could Only Remember My Name is an a great release. I give it my double thumbs up. You will not be disappointed with one single track.

While the entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 - Cowboy Movie, track 6 - Traction In The Rain, and track 9 - I’d Swear There Was Somebody Here

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Music Is Love. This is a great track!
