I just saw the headline, and I wondered if it was 'click-bait'

The signer-songwriter was a founding member of two of the biggest bands of the 1960s: The Byrds and Crosby, Stills and Nash.

His career saw him achieve the rare feat of being inducted to the revered Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice.

His wife told showbiz site Variety that he died "after a long illness" while surrounded by family.

"Carry on" was with Neil Young. No way I thought his voice would fit in with CSN, too nasal. I cannot hear it though, only when he sings on his own.
Anyway the harmony is insane on this. Not the arrangement itself (which is great) but the fact they get could get this sound, almost like it's one voice. That's what they could do.
Brilliant.
