Yes considering that neither nash or young were on speaking terms with Crosby not long after, it was good to see the original line up together. Only Stills ended up friendly with all the others.
I think this was recorded before Stills got his hearing aid situation figured out -- his speech sounds like someone who can't even hear himself. He has sounded much better in the intervening years.
@blueguitar411, off topic but didn’t Stills go back to grade school or thereabouts with Don Felder? Seems like Stills was the one who convinced Felder to move to California. Don I think even subbed for C, S or N on some gigs when one was ill or something. I’m pulling from a Felder interview I once watched but my details are sketchy maybe.
The talented musicians that existed back when I was a gradeschool kid during the early 70s. That period was epic. CSNY were a folk/rock group. Hendrix came and went by 1970. Zeppelin, Cream, Doors, Airplane were just the tip of the iceberg then. I listen to all of the music from this era and I am 9 yrs old again. Still get chills listening to Joni Mitchell, Clapton and the others were mezmerized by her gift.
As a teenager I snuck into the Record Plant in 1990 when CSN were working on an album there. Nash autographed an old newspaper for me. They were still partying at that point but I’m sure it was nothing compared to the era 20 years before!
I guess they didn’t think alcohol was a drug, but they all drank like fish before 1968. I’ve used alcohol, cannabis, LSD, mushrooms, mescaline, cocaine, Valium, methamphetamine, Quaaludes, and many others: of all of those, I consider alcohol to be the most addicting and life-destroying. I’m happily sober for more than 30 years. 😄
I believe the one reason alcohol is the most dangerous is because it's "safe". Culturally safe, that is. Your superego doesn't object to it like with other substances, it's associated with food, history etc.
About to post the same thing. Alcohol and tobacco first for sure. The misconception that heroin will kill you the first time from someone that has been through it, yet still believes the propaganda.
In this episode we have one of the better known Boomer liberals insinuating Nixon propaganda about how marijuana is a gateway drug. It's absolutely preposterous.
The title is clickbait. You hear a miniscule bit of content on drug use in the first 90 seconds--and only from Nash--then it's about how they all met. Odd thing is, it was interesting to hear how they met and (in my opinion) didn't require a title topic that is equivalent of putting bait on a hook to catch a fish.
Sadly you can walk down main street of any little town now and find some young person whose drug use is way more intense and insane than any of these 60's rock stars, whose drug use everyone still talks about.
why is everyone so focussed on drugs ? and everyone saying they sucked ? they, separately and togrther, made some of hhe best music of our time. they should be thanked and celebrated . their music will be listened to 420 years from now...
They created an amazing sound. In this, they could just be seniors arguing about dates and laugh to ease tension because it doesn’t matter. Not a point to cause acrimony and pick sides.
I saw Neil Young in concert and it was the worst concert I have ever been to. It was obvious he did not like performing. Playing in a band with the other members probably brought out the best in him, but he is a jerk.
Joni Mitchell's account matches David Crosby and Graham Nash's who had just arrived from England to visit her. She remembers they sang, "You Don’t Have to Cry" and described it as "instantaneous" and "magical."
i think it is just the old friends experience. friday i got together with several old friends from 30+ yrs back and after going through the current stories of where we were at we drifted into when we first all met and none of us could agree, all erupting into loud laughter and great hugs. was a wonderful evening. just glad to still have old friends.
I HAVE BEEN IN CHARMED LISTENING AND SEEING THESE GREATS MUSICIANS, I WOULD LIKE TO BE THERE WHEN THEY PLAYED TOGETHER THE FIRST TIME , WOW I BELIEVE WAS WONDERFUL TIME. THANK FOR SHARING I HAVE ENYOYED THIS BEAUTIFUL INTERVIEW
Interesting to hear Graham talk about the importance of family, since as of a few years ago, he was still estranged from one of his sons (who can be seen on an episode of "Homestead Rescue" and looks remarkably like Graham did about the time "Deja Vu" was recorded).
Thank goodness these guys all met..collaborated fought argued and produced some great music..what they currently do and did with their individual lives is of little consequence...it influenced their music maybe....but who cares...we all have stories past and present😐
three guys who can't get over how EASY Neil Young makes music look they were NEVER happy that Neil could write and play and FINISH a tune in A DAY, while they tooled around for MONTHS finishing six tunes
Neil young can be great or he can never terrible . As a guitarist , I prefer Stills . As a song writer he is the best in CSNY . As singers , they all were great but Crosby and Nash were superb harmony singers while Stills and Young were very good lead singers
funny, now at my age, i can barely remember yesterday, but i can remember those smoky memories of youth as clearly as i see the screen i am typing on. weird. i do recall all my grandparents and even my parents seeming to have the same experience---and they were pretty much back woods teetotalers. i am sure there is some science to explain that.
@@MouthBreatherGaming lol, not sure your age, but i kid you not, some 20 yrs ago, somewhere in my mid 40s, i realized i was always stoned! and i stepped away from the bong and i have been in bliss ever since. toss in old age and what a blast! love you, mean it, peace!
@@jebstewart666 If I could toast both of you I would . Classic . Not that anyone cares . I’m 61 and (almost cut my hair) is in my top 5 all time songs .!! Take care later . Joey in Pennsylvania.
Most of the Laurel Canyon neighborhood members are gone, but whoever else was in the Joni Mitchell/Cass Elliott dining room table when CSN first sang might recall being there when musical history was being made. Am sure some are still around.
I really appreciate your efforts! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
To me it was never all four. It was CSN +Y. Even this interview is three. The "magic" discovered that night at Cass Elliot's house was their unique three part harmony, which lsoon became their iconic first album. Deja Vu had none of that.
okay. nice vid but why the click bait title. "they" don't talk about that one does a little bit at the beginning the least interesting of the 3 to hear talk about it
There is no way Graham Nash began doing drugs as late as 1968. He was in "The Hollies" and was definitely influenced by the Beatles who everyone knew by 1965 were smoking weed. The Monterey Pop Festival was in 1967 and I am sure Graham Nash was smoking dope by 1966.
You've got to be kidding me that it's a gateway drug. Isn't alcohol a gateway to most things, but that term gateway, it's like the word drug that's used to explain fungi...😂🙄
odd, i 've smoked whacky baccy and i didn't progress to 'charlie', had the opportunity, just didn't like it or its effect. gateway drugs?, pah ! it's ego or lack of it.
I saw what I believe was one of their final shows and that was October 2014. I think they played about 6 of 7 more shows and then never played together again
Sorry, ,, weed doesn’t lead to Cocaine ,,,, lol. Been smoking weed for 40 years , still only smoking weed.. Weed leads to Dorittoes,, donuts, snack foods. If you get some good stuff on the right day, , some fun off the wall humour. And music. Of coarse if you have someone pass you stuff on a silver plater , in a mansion, with a glass of Dom ,,,, and Caviar, and everyone around you is doing it like it’s normal. You might be inclined to do it.
Nash is 82 now. In the interview he says he's 71. An 11 year old interview released 18 hours ago. Still works!

@@melodymakermarkWe’ll see if anyone answers but I must have seen that same interview with Don Felder. I lean toward your statement being correct.
Love these Guys .great job on interview.
The talented musicians that existed back when I was a gradeschool kid during the early 70s. That period was epic. CSNY were a folk/rock group. Hendrix came and went by 1970. Zeppelin, Cream, Doors, Airplane were just the tip of the iceberg then. I listen to all of the music from this era and I am 9 yrs old again. Still get chills listening to Joni Mitchell, Clapton and the others were mezmerized by her gift.
Sex, drugs, and rock n roll, degraded us to this unmoored point of total confusion.
Respect to graham nash for striving to be more and better at that age instead of resting on all his great accomplishments.
so much pure talent, right there !
The talent from this era, this group, their friends is simply amazing still today.
I still listen for time to time to the first album, CS&N, and each time I am happy THIS EXISTS.
As a teenager I snuck into the Record Plant in 1990 when CSN were working on an album there. Nash autographed an old newspaper for me. They were still partying at that point but I’m sure it was nothing compared to the era 20 years before!
all i know is its awsome to see these guys together !
✌️💚
Masters of harmony !
Still listen and luv their music- wonderful
I've found that musicians such as Graham are very open, honest. saw David on a video telling about himself/ others very honest, open.
I could hear these guys talk about their lives for hours. I really don't think this video needed a click baity title to garner views.
I guess they didn’t think alcohol was a drug, but they all drank like fish before 1968.

no doubt alcohol is the most destructive drug in the world...Ironic because its legal and socially condonced!!
Meth is definitely way worse than alcohol. It so much more nuerotoxic.
I believe the one reason alcohol is the most dangerous is because it's "safe". Culturally safe, that is. Your superego doesn't object to it like with other substances, it's associated with food, history etc.
exactly!!!!!!!!!!
@@brageboogie yup...socially condoned
It started with alcohol, not marijuana. Alcohol is one of the deadliest and most addictive drugs.
@@jeffreyhunt1727 it is deadly and one of the most acceptable to society,lost personal family members and people close to me from alcohol
About to post the same thing. Alcohol and tobacco first for sure. The misconception that heroin will kill you the first time from someone that has been through it, yet still believes the propaganda.
It started with oxygen.
Yo momm dont smoke a alcohol pipe

100% agree!
I agree with your opinion
Are you more offended by the title, or that there wasn't MORE discussion about the drugs?
Yeah real B S
@@isitrealgood I believe the OP said
the title is clickbait.
We first sang at Cass Elliot’s or Joni Mitchell’s table,damn,to be a fly on the wall there.
CSN first sang together on “You Don’t Have to Cry.” When and where is up for dispute.
Like in the Cook and Moore film?
I still love the Wild Tales album Graham. There's still part of 'all of us' waiting....to be discovered!! 👍🤙🙏
Loved the band and Dan Rather's interviews.
Love their music. THe rest is superfluous
Sadly you can walk down main street of any little town now and find some young person whose drug use is way more intense and insane than any of these 60's rock stars, whose drug use everyone still talks about.

why is everyone so focussed on drugs ?

In your opinion. Music is about opinions, and as the saying goes, opinions are like arse holes, everyone has one.
They created an amazing sound. In this, they could just be seniors arguing about dates and laugh to ease tension because it doesn’t matter. Not a point to cause acrimony and pick sides.
These guys produced sublime music 🎶
Owsley changed the world.
They never let Stephen Stills get a word in edgewise about his former bandmate Neil Young and he's the one who brought Neil into the band
I saw Neil Young in concert and it was the worst concert I have ever been to. It was obvious he did not like performing. Playing in a band with the other members probably brought out the best in him, but he is a jerk.
@@kerrypickens8594You know him personally? 😂😂
The one thing I like about this video if you’re any kind of CSN fan they are sitting in order !
We all have our own experiences- not truths. Truth remains the same.
Well said. I was thinking exactly the same.
@@MouthBreatherGaming Rationalize what?
Never ask druggies their memories!?!
Joni Mitchell's account matches David Crosby and Graham Nash's who had just arrived from England to visit her. She remembers they sang, "You Don’t Have to Cry" and described it as "instantaneous" and "magical."
Stills, Nash and Santa!!!! I'm loving that crazy Kringle!
My goodness. I was on the edge of my seat deciding which one of them to believe about how they got started. What a fascinating
When did drug use start? It starts with alcohol in 99.9% of cases.
It cracks me up that after all these years, they still disagree on when they first met and sang together.
They didn’t know that is was going to be significant, at the time.
@@halweiss8671 no I think it was the drugs
@@dougww1ectebow I was trying to be kind.

@@jebstewart666 I maintain my position that it is the drugs they were using at the time. Even they have verbalized that in other interviews.
i'm absolutely sure i currently dont know anything .
there was a time when i was absolutely sure about everything but that was when i had a memory .
rock n roll royalty... legends....
Drug use usually starts with alcohol and cigarettes
No it doesnt
Follow your passions is the best advice ever.😊
The only truth l care about is the sublime music they made

This isn’t ’about their drug use’.theres about 60 seconds where Graham talks about drugs at the very beginning. Misleading click bait title
Crosby, Stills and Hash..
😂😂 liked that
Little dig there at the end from Crosby.
Interesting to hear Graham talk about the importance of family, since as of a few years ago, he was still estranged from one of his sons (who can be seen on an episode of "Homestead Rescue" and looks remarkably like Graham did about the time "Deja Vu" was recorded).
1:25 what a story! What people do for drugs.
Awesome...
Thank goodness these guys all met..collaborated fought argued and produced some great music..what they currently do and did with their individual lives is of little consequence...it influenced their music maybe....but who cares...we all have stories past and present😐
Imposter syndrome, Graham - me too. Thanks you for the music.
I love these 3 old bastards so much....and neil too
My friend, Dave, and I have completely different recollections of where we first met.
And Young!
This interview was with Crosby, Stills & Nash.
Young didn't appear, so it would be incorrect to list him in the heading.

Mr. Rather and production crew: You MUST make sure your guests 10:41 10:43 are hydrated to avoid the dry mouth sounds! At times it’s distracting.❤
I don't hear it. Stills has a speech impediment caused by lifelong hearing loss. Is that what bothered you?
Truth is elusive even when we’re all present in the same scene
arf arf arf
where is the full interview?
Why is there no interview date in the description?
Dope!
Casket, Stills and Nash.
Nash is unique.
Why doesn't anyone mention the LSD?
Weed does not lead to other drugs, it is your choices that do that.
Most of the Laurel Canyon neighborhood members are gone, but whoever else was in the Joni Mitchell/Cass Elliott dining room table when CSN first sang might recall being there when musical history was being made.
Am sure some are still around.
It's not really a mystery Mitchell and numerous others have said it was Joni's house on Lookout Mountain
I really appreciate your efforts! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
Crosby was an amazing musician. Sadly he alienated his band mates in his later years.
Started smoking dope but Alcohol is always 1st in way shape or form
But Stephen... how much LSD was being used at the time...? That can jumble memories pretty good!
Actually I was going to correct Steven, it IS Lookout Mountain Drive, I've passed by Joni's old place a thousand times.
Crosby's Pills & Hash
To me it was never all four. It was CSN +Y. Even this interview is three. The "magic" discovered that night at Cass Elliot's house was their unique three part harmony, which lsoon became their iconic first album. Deja Vu had none of that.
Deja Vu is the best album any of those 4 ever made. The first album is a masterpiece, but deja Vu is perfect.
Absolutely
An interview from 2012 ?
Why is Dan Rather considered the one to do these interviews with these huge old rock stars ?
How'd they get Stills and Nash to sit down with Crosby? How old is this?
Graham says he’s 71 here so it’s around 2013.
Crosby's work far surpassed his contemporaries once he got clean.
Why wasn't Nash asked if they started with alcohol?
Can’t remember if it was Joni or Cass? Christ, bless them both, but Joni and Cass are two very different looking women. Stephen did too much drugs…
Why would you believe one man over the other?
I Would Like
Stills Nash & Young
To Get Together
Maybe Do Some
Buffalo Springfield and
Hollies Tunes
okay. nice vid
but why the click bait title.
"they" don't talk about that
one does a little bit at the beginning
the least interesting of the 3 to hear talk about it
Crosby Steals the Hash... hah lol 🤣
Pot doesnt lead to anythings. Its your choice. Have some personal responsibility.
Alchohol makes you try anything i used to smoke weed and think it's just as bad as alchohol if you consume it daily
There is no way Graham Nash began doing drugs as late as 1968. He was in "The Hollies" and was definitely influenced by the Beatles who everyone knew by 1965 were smoking weed. The Monterey Pop Festival was in 1967 and I am sure Graham Nash was smoking dope by 1966.
Crosby, supply man for Fab Four
“I never thought I would die from snorting cocaine”
Ha ha ha
Yeah, the heart blowing rush does not feel like it could blow out your heart.
What's with Stills speech impediment, has he always had it or is this a recent thing?
He has hearing loss from performing so many years/
While the dealer was still dead?
You've got to be kidding me that it's a gateway drug. Isn't alcohol a gateway to most things, but that term gateway, it's like the word drug that's used to explain fungi...😂🙄
1:39 what did he say? Something like: "...and stole the pink slit bat for the mercedes..."
"Pink slip" vehicle reg. doc.
LEARY....STILLS...HENDRIX....YOU CAN BE ANYTHING THIS TIME AROUND???
DONT REMEMBER WHERE I READ THAT.
CORRECT ME .ADD ON.I LOVE ALL YOU
I thought Rather was better than this. But to imply that marijuana lead to hard drugs is pretty bad.
Title change...Crosby Stills Nash and Young on how the collaboration started
addicts talking about addiction. sad but true. i know, i am too. only difference is i m 21 years clean. so far
I'd bet sugar caffeine and tobacco came first then weed then everything and anything.
And what do we have today? Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift whose music, to quote David Crosby 'about as deep as a bird-bath'.
The Archies' "Sugar Sugar" was a giant hit back then. The pool has always had varying depths.
odd, i 've smoked whacky baccy and i didn't progress to 'charlie', had the opportunity, just didn't like it or its effect. gateway drugs?, pah ! it's ego or lack of it.
Did so many drugs that they can't remember or agree on anything. That tells me that you can't believe anything they say.
Alcohol leads to blow
must have been 2013. I always thought they had been at serious odds in that time. Even bewaring from contact...?
I saw what I believe was one of their final shows and that was October 2014. I think they played about 6 of 7 more shows and then never played together again

great interview - but don't expect to hear anything about their drug usage.
