CROSBY, STILLS, NASH & YOUNG
plus DALLAS TAYLOR, JOHN SEBASTIAN, JERRY GARCIA, GREGORY REEVES
The musical partnership of David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash, with and without Neil Young,
was not only one of the most successful touring and recording acts of the late '60s, '70s, and
early '80s -- with the colorful, contrasting nature of the members' characters and their connection to
the political and cultural upheavals of the time -- it was arguably the only American-based band
to approach the overall societal impact of the Beatles.
The group was a second marriage for all the participants when it came together in 1968:
Crosby had been a member of the Byrds, Nash was in the Hollies, and Stills with Young had been
part of Buffalo Springfield. The resulting trio, however, sounded like none of its predecessors
and was characterized by a unique vocal blend and a musical approach that ranged from acoustic folk
to melodic pop to hard rock. CSN's debut album, released in 1969, was perfectly in tune with the times,
and the group was an instant hit. By the time of their first tour (which included the Woodstock festival),
they had added Young, also a veteran of Buffalo Springfield
"DEJA VU"

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
One of the most hotly awaited second albums in history -- right up there with those by the Beatles
and the Band -- Déjà Vu lived up to its expectations and rose to number one on the charts.
Those achievements are all the more astonishing given the fact that the group barely held together
through the estimated 800 hours it took to record Déjà Vu and scarcely functioned as a group
for most of that time. Déjà Vu worked as an album, a product of four potent musical talents
who were all ascending to the top of their game coupled with some very skilled production,
engineering, and editing. There were also some obvious virtues in evidence -- the addition
of Neil Young to the Crosby, Stills & Nash lineup added to the level of virtuosity, with Young
and Stephen Stills rising to new levels of complexity and volume on their guitars. Young's
presence also ratcheted up the range of available voices one notch and added a uniquely
idiosyncratic songwriter to the fold, though most of Young's contributions in this area were
confined to the second side of the LP. Most of the music, apart from the quartet's version
of Joni Mitchell's "Woodstock," was done as individual sessions by each of the members
when they turned up (which was seldom together), contributing
whatever was needed that could be agreed upon..... Déjà Vu, a rich musical banquet for the most
serious and personal listeners, while mass audiences reveled in the glorious harmonies
and the thundering electric guitars, which were presented in even more dramatic
and expansive fashion on the tour that followed.....(AllMusic)
