DAVID CROSBY | 80

David Crosby made a massive noise in the music industry; all credit to his unparalleled knowledge and talent regarding playing his musical instruments. He joined the Byrds in 1964. He’s one of the iconic figures when it comes to jazz music and his style in playing was second to none. Crosby was also the man behind the iconic rock bands that top the charts during the 60s and 70s.

In 1967, he joined Buffalo Springfield on stage at the Monterey Pop Festival which contributed to his dismissal from the Byrds. During the year 1985, he was convicted of several cases and spent nine months in prison. The charges were related to the use of an illegal substance. He was then arrested for the possession of illegal firearms and driving while being drunk, which led to a hit-and-run accident. When we look at his personal life, it might not be as great compared to his record-breaking musical career. He is subjected to many trials over the years and even hired a lawyer to defend him against the violations he has been charged with.
