Absolutely the best version I've ever heard of this song. So stripped down and simple...just like he wrote it. Rest in peace David, thank you for always staying true to yourself and thank you for so much beautiful music. Love you man
That is SOUL!!!! Not out to be a bad ass on the guitar, not trying to impress anybody with fancy moves and clothes. Just a guy, playing his song, with passion!!!! THIS IS WHAT MUSIC IS!!!
Thank you for never cutting your hair, for all the beautiful songs and laughs. God is surely separating the wheat from the chaff. And you are the wheat. May you rest in heaven
RIP David. My teen years would have been so much less without your incredible music. God bless you, I bet you are singing with the angels right now. 💔💔💔💔
How have only 28,000 people seen this? This should be in the multi millions of views. Show the little Beliebers/Wand Erections of the world how music should be played. A man who saw it, did it, survived it and came out the other side with his head held high. Legend.
One of the greatest solo performances in history, with incredible emotion, power and voice control. I can really relate to his performance, as I was 20 years old in 1970, when the song was written. It was the hottest part of the Vietnam war, an indescribably traumatic event in our country's history. The line "I feel like I owe it to someone" brilliantly expresses the sentiment of the song, and makes me emotional every time I hear it.
My mom use too listen to David at a coffee shop in Pasadena Ca when she was in her late teens. When she told me, I was like, they had coffee shops in 1955?
I know right? I have a guitar and I practice a lot. But as much as I'd do, I'm never going to be good at it. Driving, auto racing, karting and hockey (goalie) are my things!
Loved watching him from the start of early 60's playing is Guitar and his Vocal Range was always Clear. You knew who it was. Seems he never missed his Mark. He always took you long on a ventures ride while on his own Musical Journey. He had his Ups and Downs. But he always brought the Goods to the Table his Great Great Musical Talent. Thank You David Crosby for never cutting your Hair. GOD BLESS RIP.
In 76 I cut mine out of respect for my 76 yr old grandpa's funeral It reached my belt at that time when I arrived my relatives said you could have got a hair cut. I don't regret it, wasn't for them anyway. Jump forward 25 yrs dad passed, another cut growing slower now but still respectable 4 inches from belt line, 2022 mom passes gone again only a 10 inch tail. Now I'm pushing 72 heads starting to look like croz. Starting to think like maybe a military cut or a razor. Hope your still amongst the living and the dome ain't shining like chrome. Just remembering.
What a wonderful life he had..... I always wanted to be just like him..... For last 50 years.... Never a frown and almost never cut his hair, so damn cool. Please. Please REST IN PEACE
Oh my word! What a phenomenal performance from David Crosby!! I could feel that performance throughout my whole body wow! Rest in peace my friend you are loved by millions
I love David Crosby, I have since I was born in 1967 and still do. He was the real deal and as an artist, he shows me that yes we grow old, but we never have to lose our relevancy or cool. Rest In Peace Mr Crosby....
Saw Crosby decades ago at a benefit at the Wiltern in L.A. trying to reopen the Ash Grove. He held the audience in the palm of his hand with his guitar, just as here. Like nothing else!
Woke up in hospital ward in jail Dallas Texas, the bed next to me was David Crosby. Very down to earth man who has conquered his demons. God bless you david
Mr Crosby, thank you for letting me carry all of the bittersweet memories of my father course through your music. Some were so beautiful, and others not so; you're not hurting anymore. You don't have to worry about a God damn thing and I think that's what's most deserved. Thank you, rest easy. Tears in my eyes writing this as we speak. What a dull start to the year. So. Much. Hurt.❤️🩹
Oh man, the “yes I am” (2:23)… like you, I’m here wandering the tube looking for crumbs to savor in the wake of his passing. Thank you, brother, for all the heartful memories, for all the challenges presented, for all the depth you presented me. In love, gratitude. Enjoy the weather 💖.
When I listen to these songs from the 1970's, I wish I was a little older and could have experienced the cultural moments they represent. They feel so real in a way more modern songs seldom do. Thank you David Crosby.
As a child of 1960s-70s I can tell you when I think back it was a comfortable and secure time ..no real problems, just highschool, summer & friends...none of the bs today 🥰
From what you have written I believe you get it, possibly more than some of us who were actually there. Sometimes I think that we don’t need to be somewhere to experience it. For instance listen to Joni Mitchell’s “ Woodstock” an event she never attended. Enjoy! 👍✌🏾
And to David Crosby's work on this, God, Than You, once again. So much of your brilliance has gotten overshadowed in forfeit to the groups acclaim. This has to be one of the better recordings I've heard in allowing your art to 'shine on its own'. ... One man's opinion.
David, angel in heaven, your voice, your music, your very soul gives us goosebumps. We miss you, already; you are the Real Thing, brother. Peace, love and eternal rest are on the agenda. You've more than earned it 🕊🙏🤲🎸🎤🎼🎶
David is a much better guitarist than I’d previously thought. Always seemed to be overshadowed, at least instrumentally by Stephen Stills. This is a performance filled with passion and truth. Thx David. You rock!
No "production" no dubbing, no back up, just a guy and a fucking guitar. This is true talent and CSNY do it ALL THE TIME!
Always :)
Hell yeah, epic fucking performance. David Crosby is a legend
and no aut0 tune!
Fuck yeah man no fuckin doubtafuckinboutit
And what a guy.
Absolutely the best version I've ever heard of this song. So stripped down and simple...just like he wrote it. Rest in peace David, thank you for always staying true to yourself and thank you for so much beautiful music. Love you man
Rest easy, sir. Thanks for weaving your magic so effortlessly through the fabric of our lives. 🕊️
💔
Couldn't say better, may him rest in peace.
Thanks for making your freak flag fly! ✌️
That is SOUL!!!! Not out to be a bad ass on the guitar, not trying to impress anybody with fancy moves and clothes. Just a guy, playing his song, with passion!!!! THIS IS WHAT MUSIC IS!!!
exactly right.
Fuck'n-A.
But.... He can play guitar and hit notes most guys can't😂🎶🎶🎶🎶
AMEN!
Well said my brother
Thank you for never cutting your hair, for all the beautiful songs and laughs. God is surely separating the wheat from the chaff. And you are the wheat. May you rest in heaven
RIP David Crosby. Your music touched many lives. Thanks David.
Dear David... To honor your passing I will listen, with heart and soul, to your art that has accompanied me in every moment of mine, always... 💔
RIP David. My teen years would have been so much less without your incredible music. God bless you, I bet you are singing with the angels right now. 💔💔💔💔
I'm 61. all my heroes are going away. so long David.
Thank you DAVID for the great music. I'm 69 and remember it all ,the great times my friends and myself had smoking weed and listening to you .RIP.
Such a great voice and guitar playing. 50 years on, still my favourite music.
Wonderful. 1 guitar , 1 voice . 1 soul. Truly awesome performance.
Davide Crosby. The voice of God in the earth!!! Not else.
This is one of the most beautiful performances I've ever seen. So much presence from one man and a guitar. Rest easy Croz.
How have only 28,000 people seen this? This should be in the multi millions of views. Show the little Beliebers/Wand Erections of the world how music should be played. A man who saw it, did it, survived it and came out the other side with his head held high. Legend.
A lot more have seen it. I seen this years ago on here still my favorite all time performance. God given talent.
Best kept secret on the internet
Pleace in ispanis
True Talent. A great example of the" IT'" factor. He has it don't need dancers, a big entourage , gimmicks, lips synch. True talent end of story
I can't believe all this talent is gone. RIP David.
Che peccato, ho saputo poco fa che ci ha lasciato per sempre il grande inimitabile David. Sono commosso. Grazie, non ti dimenticheremo mai.
Had to come here today and watch this again. RIP Crosby
One of the greatest solo performances in history, with incredible emotion, power and voice control. I can really relate to his performance, as I was 20 years old in 1970, when the song was written.

David obviously enjoyed it and communicated his joy. So pure
My mom use too listen to David at a coffee shop in Pasadena Ca when she was in her late teens.
When she told me, I was like, they had coffee shops in 1955?
Literally everything was a coffee shop in 1955. But most did not have David.
This is what makes somebody buy a guitar in the first place.
I know right? I have a guitar and I practice a lot. But as much as I'd do, I'm never going to be good at it. Driving, auto racing, karting and hockey (goalie) are my things!
Exactly. Right on.
Absolutely the best version of his song that I have heard yet!
A voice of the heavens. And there it goes. Don't cut that hair up there, man!
Awesome
Loved watching him from the start of early 60's playing is Guitar and his Vocal Range was always Clear. You knew who it was. Seems he never missed his Mark. He always took you long on a ventures ride while on his own Musical Journey.
He had his Ups and Downs. But he always brought the Goods to the Table his Great Great Musical Talent. Thank You David Crosby for never cutting your Hair. GOD BLESS RIP.
Jan 21 2023 David passed, love this song. God Bless. So glad I saw him play this live.
70...grew up and got my draft card to Croz' amazing music...LOVE this version. Always amazed that the track on their Deja Vu album was a first take!
I just heard the news. Had to find a version. This is a good one.
Thanks for all the music old man. You were cool.
Man has a gift sent straight from God. David Crosby is the man.
This is the Best version of Almost Cut my Hair!! Soulful...Classic...
I am 63, my "tail" is half way down my back. I will never get another hair cut. Why? Just because there is no longer anyone who can make me.
Exactly where I am at right now with hair to my waist at 65 years of age. I am me, and I am not gonna change for anyone's expectations.
Haven't cut mine in nearly 4 years, not gonna ever cut it short again. Anybody that doesn't like it can kiss my tired old ass!!!
Man, do I hear Ya!!! Same place on my back. And I wear it proud when I'm out! Untailed! "Lettin' my Freak flag fly"...yeah! Thanks, David!
In 76 I cut mine out of respect for my 76 yr old grandpa's funeral It reached my belt at that time when I arrived my relatives said you could have got a hair cut.

@@larryh.4629 Did you cut it? I hope not
What a voice 👍❤️
Man u ain't kidding! Even at his age his pipes were phenomenal
What a wonderful life he had..... I always wanted to be just like him..... For last 50 years.... Never a frown and almost never cut his hair, so damn cool. Please. Please REST IN PEACE
I Can't Sing, Thanks for Singing it for Me David Rest In Eternal Peace
I love it when in the end of the song he makes a fist and a grin like "I nailed it", like he's singing it for the very first time...
I've watched this several times and hadn't noticed that, lol. Nice
R.I.P. David Crosby.Rock And Roll and Folk legend.
Thanks for the soundtrack to my life. I feel privileged to have lived the same times as you.
The most beautiful live performance I've ever seen

RIP David, we'll never forget you ... your voice, your music, your songs still live and they will on and on ...
I would have loved to have seen this performance. The Cros is one of the best.
He was in great voice here, especially considering his age. And when David Crosby is in great voice, it's a privilege to be in the audience!
What a voice~what a life~what a musical legacy to leave us all. 🕶
Listen to this man and his guitar sing a beautiful duet... they're makin' love tonight, for sure.
perfect voice, perfect chords, perfect song!
His best rendition. How this song should be heard. A talent we will never replace.
Ciao Davide continua a sonare.grazie.orazio.27.11.49.
This is still a great song after all these years.
Absolutely right-on David Crosby! ✌️✌️
Excellent performance. RIP sir. Thank you.
What a performance here. Chilling.
What a wonderful voice! A privilege of age, without doubt? Thank you David Crosby, tank you Lord.
One of the few that I would love to see live

Vintage Croz, I get the shivers listening to this.... sad that he is no longer with us.
Amazing version singing it solo and with just an acoustic guitar and slower. RIP David!
When I listen to these songs from the 1970's, I wish I was a little older and could have experienced the cultural moments they represent. They feel so real in a way more modern songs seldom do. Thank you David Crosby.

Que la terre te soit légère.
Wow! He was a fantastic
voice! RIP David Crosby.
Great song, great voice, great man.
RIP man. Was blessed to have seen you live (1974) in Boone, NC, with Graham Nash. Was truly special. Miss you already. God speed.
Absolutely stunning....
Thank you for the music…
Rest In Peace…
David is a much better guitarist than I’d previously thought. Always seemed to be overshadowed, at least instrumentally by Stephen Stills. This is a performance filled with passion and truth. Thx David. You rock!
Rest Easy , David …..Thank you
So glad you didn't go to VietNam. Love you, your music, your convictions and your social commentary.
David thank you for giving us some songs that when you sang took use on a grand visual tour of life.❤❤❤
Good acoustic piece! Dave ya' still got it!
RIP David, another legend gone 💔
David Crosby. Never forget .
God blesses always this man. A pure diamond in the sky.
Legend gets thrown around too much, not in your case Croz, thank you
