(7,304 posts)1. Full Circle is so well done and
I can pick out Chris Hillman and Crosby so well in this. Thank you. You might like this one. I have put this up a couple of times. I think Gene would very much like the way Chris Hillman has covered this here.

(7,304 posts)3. This is the last gig from Gene and
the song is about his wife finally leaving him due to his long struggle with demons. He was gone less than 2 months later. It is one of the most personal songs I have ever heard.
