On this day, January 23, 1989, David Crosby released his long-awaited second solo album, Oh Yes I Can. Coming 18 years after his debut solo album, If I Could Only Remember My Name, this record reflected Crosby’s journey through personal struggles and recovery.

The album featured introspective tracks like Drive My Car and Tracks in the Dust, showcasing Crosby’s soulful vocals and lyrical depth. While it peaked at #104 on the Billboard charts, Oh Yes I Can received praise for its heartfelt storytelling and marked a triumphant return for the legendary singer-songwriter.

Fun Fact: The gap between Crosby’s first and second solo albums was largely due to his battles with addiction and legal issues. Oh Yes I Can symbolized his personal and professional comeback.

Trivia Question: David Crosby was a founding member of two iconic bands. Can you name both of them?
