"Southern Cross" is a favorite of mine. R.I.P.

He was also a 1911 fan: https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1985-10-25-mn-14182-story.html

I liked Southern Cross a lot, Maniac.

They gotta die sometime.

But, still, Him over Hanoi Jane? The Devil will eventually catch up to her. Eventually.

May he rest in peace, and yes, Southern Cross.

There sure have been a lot of musicians I liked passing on in the last few years.

It's tempting to say it has something to do with "dying of suddenly" but that's its own kind of stupid. Being a musician touring for a living is a hard life - even without the opiates. What liver was he on? His 4th? 27th? And passing at age 81? That's pretty much standard chart longevity, plus or minus a standard deviation.

Yeah; Southern Cross...

Southern Cross is essentially Stephen Stills. He wrote it and sang lead. Crosby only appeared on it in a vid. and live shows.
