  "Simple Twist of Fate"

They sat together in the park
As the evening sky grew dark,
She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones.
'Twas then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight
And watched out for a simple twist of fate.

They walked along by the old canal
A little confused, I remember well
And stopped into a strange hotel with a neon burnin' bright.
He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train
Moving with a simple twist of fate.

A saxophone someplace far off played
As she was walkin' by the arcade.
As the light bust through a beat-up shade where he was wakin' up,
She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate
And forgot about a simple twist of fate.

He woke up, the room was bare
He didn't see her anywhere.
He told himself he didn't care, pushed the window open wide,
Felt an emptiness inside to which he just could not relate
Brought on by a simple twist of fate.

He hears the ticking of the clocks
And walks along with a parrot that talks,
Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailers all come in.
Maybe she'll pick him out again, how long must he wait
Once more for a simple twist of fate.

People tell me it's a sin
To know and feel too much within.
I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring.
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
Blame it on a simple twist of fate

 Zag ik eerder dit jaar Graham Nash in het mooie openluchttheater in Amsterdam,deze avond was het de beurt aan David Crosby.Ook hier in een mooi openluchttheater,het OLT Rivierenhof in Antwerpen.Opvallend is dat beide heren,ook op oudere leeftijd nog steeds zeer goed bij stem zijn.

                  Naked in The Rain (Crosby&Nash)album Wind On The Water

Iets over half negen betrad een zeer relaxte David Crosby met zijn band het podium,hij klaagde wel wat over de kou,zijn dikke jas zou de hele avond aanblijven.Het optreden daarintegen was hartverwarmend.Hoogtepunten uit zijn lange muzikale carriere kwamen voorbij,maar ook zijn laatste album kwam aan de beurt."In My Dreams" was de opener,prachtig geluid ,prima stemmen,De toon was gezet.Het hoge niveau zou de hele avond gehandhaafd blijven.Van het CPR project werd "Morrison" gespeeld,gevolgd door de Crosby& Nash song "Naked In The Rain"

                                        Guinevere (Crosby,Stills, Nash song)

Na het voor mij onbekende "Thousnad Roads" de CPR song "The Edge" het prachtige  "Guinevere" een van de vele hoogtepunten van de avond.

  Homeward Through The Haze (Crosby& Nash song)album Wind On The Water

David heeft nog steeds een stevige mening over de Amerikaanse democratie.Was het vroeger Nixon,nu moet uiteraard Trump het ontgelden.Canada was zijn favoriete land "What Are There names" een prachtig "Long Time Gone" "Deja Vu". David en zijn band last een half uurtje pauze in.Tijd voor een hapje en een drankje.En de nabespreking van de mooie eerst helft.En er zou nog zo veel moois volgen...........

                                           David Crosby &  Michelle Willis (Sky Trails)

We hebben de zitplaats op de tribune geruild voor een staanplaats vlak voor het podium.David heeft het nog steeds koud,maar daar is tijdens het optreden niets van te merken Het tweede deel begint met  het mooie "The Lee Shore" een CSN&Y song,gevolgd door "  Homeward Through The Haze" met een hoofdrol voor gitarist Jeff Pevar.Samen met Michelle Willis kwam de mooie titeltrack van David,s laatste album "Sky Trails" aan de beurt.Samen met Jackson Brown schreef David het prachtige "Delta",ook weer zo,n prachtig hoogtepunt.Michelle Willis kwam vanachter het keyboard om samen met David het volijke"Janet" ten gehore te brengen

                                          Wooden Ships (Crosby.Stills &Nash song)

Wat daarna volgde was een feest van herkenning,stevige uitvoering van "Eight Miles Hight" je zou het bijna vergeten,maar David Crosby is ook nog een van de oprichters van The Byrds is.Daarna het CSN nummer "Wooden Chips"

                                              Ohio (CSN&Y song)

 De toegift was voor CSN&Y. Prachtige uitvoering van het onvermijdelijke "Almost Cut my Hair" De afsluiter was "Ohio" massaal door het publiek,en door ondergetekende meegezongen Four Dead In Ohio galmde nog lang na in het Rivierenhof.Het betekende een mooie einde van een prachtige serie concerten in dit prachtige theater.
