    Now that boys and girls is how real musicians sound. Real playing, real singing. No lip synching, no backing tracks.

      Groups that had tight harmonies "never" lip sync or key adjusting. They were the true singers/artists of music and very few of them today.

    I will always cry when I listen to CSN. Because I go immediately back to those years - a student at UCLA, in the midst of turmoil, discovery, love --- I want my kids to listen to them after I'm gone, to understand what formed the Mama they knew.

    RIP David.

Regardless if Young was involved. I sometimes think about how underrated they are. One of the things that the internet has been able to do is become the meeting place for I guess, ''like-minded-people'' can come together (for free) and share a part of life with each other.....

      the soprano/falsetto voice. Only lacked Neil's talent....LOL. Met him once on a ranch at mid-coast California. He was fixing his fence and I was hiking. Very mellow cat and easy to talk with -- about guitars and amps (no surprise). He appreciated that I didn't "fan worship" him but I was thrilled to meet him. Here's to your grandson........Cheers.

    Music like this is rare. CSN&Y were my fathers favorite band. He listened to CSN&Y every time he came home from the road. He drove a truck for most of my life. I recall him sitting in front of the stereo with headphones on and CSN&Y playing so loud I could clearly hear it in the next room lol. Usually he'd start out with suite Judy blue eyes. That's still one of my all time favorite songs. I just don't hear music that moves me like this and I grew up in the 90's. Grunge rock and CSN&Y is my music lol

    I remember when this came out in the early '80's. It was a different time from when these guys first became superstars in the late 60's/early 70's. Here it was the Reagan years, 12-15 years after Woodstock and you would have thought they were past their prime but it was like "Wow! This is as good as Suite Judy Blue Eyes or anything on Deja Vu." Just blew me away.

    It's all Stephen Stills on this one: he wrote the lyrics and gave the emotions which made it the classic. Graham's always the energetic Englishman while David was like a rock on stage. But they were awesome musicians in their time. RIP David. (I heard this song decades ago as a grad student in Milwaukee... still recall the words and harmonies...)

    Dear Stephen Stills
    Thank you for 56 years of great music. I wish you hadn't wasted so much time with Crosby and Nash. To me they were just backup singers. It was very generous of you to give them a job.
    As always,

      Crosby was kicked out of The Byrds. By his own admission it was because he was an asshole. McGuinn described his as insufferable and he seems to have told the other band members they weren’t good enough to play with him. Nash left the Holllies out of frustration with what he considered a lack of creative direction and lack of interest in songs he wrote and was increasingly confident about. One was “Marrakech Express” as it happens. Stills was at loose ends after the breakup of Buffalo Springfield.

There are just a handful of songs that can absolutely bring memories flooding the minds of people people . This is one if those songs. It is probably the favorite of a lot of people. And it's really the only one that they always request to play again. And everyone sings it.
