David Crosby DTS

[hasher]

Crosby wasn't suffering from a prolonged illness, as stated to the media directly after his passing. Those collaborating with Crosby say he was working right up till the end.

"If there’s one word that sums up David Crosby’s state at the very end of his life, it might be: working. That’s according to friends who’d been collaborating with him up until the week — and even the day — that he died. Crosby was not only working on a new album but had assembled and rehearsed a new band for his first gig since prior to the pandemic, which was within days of going on sale when he suddenly died Jan. 18. Plans for a tour were being made, too, with the intention of being out on the road this summer.


The portrait his collaborators paint, of a man who couldn’t have been making more plans, stands in contrast to the wrong impression some might have been left with, that Crosby was laid up suffering from a fatal illness in his last days."

David Crosby Was Working on a Planned Tour and New Album Up to the Day He Died

Sometimes people work to hard. Tom Petty pushed himself past the breaking point and the "little helpers" he was using didn't help at all.

It's quite possible or playing to hard. Since his work was his play.

With his history of heart attacks, he most likely had the big one.

Probably working on dinner, when it happened.

I thought the Grammys did a decent tribute to Croz. What a loss for music.

David Crosby is said to have died of COVID.

Stephen Stills’ ex-wife Véronique Sanson appeared on French television and stated that Crosby had died in his sleep from complications of COVID-19. "He was on his fifth day, went to take a nap, and never woke up." Her son Chris Stills was due to undertake a tour with Crosby in February.
