falling-in-love firsts albums
I produced her first album, and I was breaking up with her at the time. That was not comfortable. Falling in love with Joni Mitchell is a bit like falling into a cement mixer!
children moving love-is
I think music is a lifting force, I think love is the lifting force in the human condition. I think you see someone loving on their child, and it moves you, and you can't help it.
longest love miles spent weeks
I love voyaging - the longest has been 3,000 miles to Hawaii. I've also spent weeks all over the Caribbean.
atlantic companies good lawyers loved music people ran record run
When it all started, record companies - and there were many of them, and this was a good thing - were run by people who loved records, people like Ahmet Ertegun, who ran Atlantic Records, who were record collectors. They got in it because they loved music... Now, record companies are run by lawyers and accountants.
love neil stills time
I love Stephen Stills and Neil Young dearly. We talk all the time. We see each other.
bookstore good inveterate love
I'm an inveterate bookstore wanderer. I read constantly, so I love a good bookstore. I can't help it.
needs wells decided
When did I decide to go into business? Well, it wasn't a business, when I decided. It was simply a need to sing.
song schedules
My songs emerge from my life, or wherever they do, unbidden and unplanned and completely on a schedule of their own.
song i-can happens
I can't legislate a song into being; it just will not happen for me.
bags littles stuff
CSNY is a little like putting seven pounds of stuff in a three pound bag.
thinking pot smoke
I do like to smoke pot. I think it's good.
war littles lsd
All wars would end immediately if the various chiefs of state dropped a little LSD.
father home sailing
Sailing became one of the mainstreams of my life. I suppose my father was an influence. I remember seeing a photo of him at home sailing a big boat to Bermuda in his 20s. I still have it.
music mean thinking
The greatest thing is the internet and that means that anybody, you have just as much access as I do. And you can make your little tape and work on it and work on it until you got it the way you want it. And then you can put it on the net. And if it's any damn good somebody's gonna notice. That's happened over and over again now. To me that's good. That's good access that isn't controlled by the companies. I think that's a great thing.
