Laughing

A song from the album If I Could Only Remember My Name
Book • 1971
The song 'Laughing' was written by David Crosby and features on his 1971 solo debut album 'If I Could Only Remember My Name'.

The song was inspired by Crosby's conversations with George Harrison about the guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, whom The Beatles had encountered during their time studying transcendental meditation.

Crosby was skeptical of the guru and expressed this skepticism in the song.

The track features contributions from Jerry Garcia on pedal steel guitar, Phil Lesh on bass, and Bill Kreutzmann on drums, all from the Grateful Dead, as well as vocal harmonies from Graham Nash and Joni Mitchell.
