David Crosby, who has died aged 81, was a premier-league rock'n'roll star twice.In the mid-1960s he was a founder member of the Byrds, the Los Angeles band often credited with inventing the genre folk-rock.This was defined by their shimmering recording of Bob Dylan's Mr Tambourine Man, its distinctive harmonies and chiming 12-string guitar carrying it to the top of the charts in Britain and the US in 1965.
