i would have laid money that at least one of CSNY would have gone years ago with all of their drug issues especially Croz and Stills, and Neil with his lifelong health issues

This is turning into a proper annus horribilis for music. Ian Bairnson has died - he was just 69 - dementia. How awful - so sorry for his family. Fantastic guitarist - R.I.P. Mr Bairnson (Kate Bush, APP, Keats) - thank you for the beautiful sounds.
I don't know for sure but I have a feeling that this album, On Air, was his love child. Despite being an Alan Parsons release, he wrote most of the songs on it and six of the eleven on his own ... these are two of them ...
Uploader is incorrect - it's not the project, just AP ...
