Query: End Of The Innocence

A very interesting insight into the lives and times of the Laurel Canyon crowd of musicians in the late 60's and 70's. It covers all the major players and some minor one you may not have heard about, but were significant influences and collaborators/co-writers (like J.D Souther). It also covers the major producers (particularly David Geffen) and their role in the whole scene. It also includes the drug excesses and sadness of those who let their addictions overcome their genius. If you are a fan of the Byrds, CSNY, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor, Joni MItchell, the Eagles, Gram Parsons and all the others who were a part of this scene, you will learn things about these artists you didn't know before. The sections about David Crosby, Steven Stills, Graham Nash, and Neil Young - their life styles, ego clashes and tumultuous relationships - is particularly interesting. 'Some of it's magic, some of it's tragic', but an excellent read overall.
