  Biography - Crosby CPR
Crosby’s musical and personal idealism often found him clashing with the other members of The Byrds, and by autumn of 1967 he was unceremoniously fired from the band.
Crosby told BAM magazine at the time, “The kind of telepathic interchange that takes place between these guys is the kind of thing that I have with Nash.
