    Both Nash and the guitar player killed it. Such a great song by Graham. This is an awesome live performance.

    Graham's voice is still distinctive of his Hollies days, always had much respect for him as a 'man' and not just his music.

    Wow, Graham Nash has lost nothing of his incredible voice after 60 years in the music business. What a pro- he is still totally invested in it 100%.

      Indeed...truly amazing! For what ever reason(s) Graham's voice has held up WAY better than the other 3. I was fortunate enough to see CSN&Y in Tempe Az during their '74 reunion tour. They did the concert just like the album "4-Way Street"; playing as a band and then each soloing their own stuff. Ah...to be 19 again...

    It's so heartwarming to see a rock star of "elder years" still in peak form (sadly, more than can be said for many). In the words of David Essex: "Hey, did you rock 'n' roll? Rock on..." (PS and oh btw: the guy on elec guitar is outstanding)

    Great Graham. He played at the spring festival in 1980 - my first year at American University in Washington D.C. I was an anti-nuclear power activist and I'm pretty sure I was tripping that beautiful afternoon. Idyllic.
    He sounds good here, nearly 40 years down the road, and that electric guitarist is fine fine fine.

      I think I might have misinterpreted your comment at first- I thought you were blaming the govt. and the Republicans. Nash wrote this song because he was pissed off that he was detained at the Canadian border trying to get back into the US. He had an H-1Visa, and not American. It was as simple as filling out some forms, and some inconvenience- then he was good to go. Still rich, still famous- but this song is now some sort of anthem.
