David Crosby discusses the making of his 1971 album If 'I Could Only Remember My Name'.

Series in which leading performers and songwriters talk about the album that made them or changed them.

Recorded in front of a live audience at the Â鶹ԼÅÄ's iconic Maida Vale Studios, each edition includes two episodes - the A-side and B-side.

In the A-side, the double-inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame talks to John Wilson.

Released in 1971, If 'I Could Only Remember My Name' was one of four high-profile solo albums released more or less simultaneously by each member of the legendary super-group, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.

David's album boasted a stellar line-up that not only included Neil Young and Graham Nash, but also featured Joni Mitchell and the leading members of both Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead.

Initially met with mixed reviews, the album has never been out of print and features some of his most impressive vocal and songwriting work - including the haunting Laughing, the mantra-like Music Is Love and the extended, impressionistic Cowboy Movie.

In the B-side of the programme, it's the turn of the audience to ask the questions.

Producer: Paul Kobrak

First broadcast on Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 4 in November 2013.
