john wasn't in the studio much in 73. you'd think the sadness of the songs would have hit him, but alcoholics live in denial. i will never forget george hawkins saying to me, 'i've known so few people who were really in control of their addictions.' i don't think john was able to see things clearly or change his behavior to any great degree, despite the love he had for chris.
