- So I finally took y'all up on listening to these guys and wow, do I feel silly or what. This was fantastic. The transition in the middle blew my mind. This really is a super group!

Stephen Stills is a beast of a writer, guitar player and singer.
Stills was Supremely underrated vocally and as a guitarist..
There was a Timothy Leary album featuring Stills and Jimi Hendrix. But Hendrix played bass and Stills the guitar.
But there’s too much Tim and not enough Jimi & Steve.
I am 71 and Deja Vu is the most played album in my collection. Every song is great, enjoy.
69, same
Not anywhere near as 4 way street especially with this song
This is actually two songs, Carry On and Questions. Questions was originally recorded with Buffalo Springfield and updated with the Carry On section.
Buffalo Springfield was America’s first real Rock Band as 60’sPop music began to transition to Rock.
Yup
I'm a recovering addict. 5 years clean. Smile....you are a unicorn like me. Very rare.
Their harmonies still send shivers up my spine. SO GOOD, and their music totally puts me back in that time period.
Yeah those vocal harmonies are to die for. I can't believe how good they were. And that transition? Masterful.
@@L33Reacts that whole album is fantastic and I second the recommendation from another commenter about doing the David Crosby solo album called if I could only remember my name. Cowboy movie is my favorite but the whole album is great. All of these guys could sing and boy did they take advantage of that. You can also see a much older David Crosby and Graham Nash on a David gilmour performance and it is breathtaking.
Dude, I really appreciate you & your channel & I have to tell you, this band will knock you out. I beg of you.... Do "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes". Southern Cross, Ohio, so many more! Stay adorable!!!!!
'almost cut my hair' brilliant as well
David Crosby came to CSN by way of The Byrds.
Their discography is a wonder in itself.
If you get the knack, check out Gram Parsons and skip a lot of in-between
Oh yes!
Fabulous tune
Have you heard the 10 minute version of Cut My Hair? It’s on the outtakes album. A WHOLE lot better than the “original “ version
@@larryoneill7432 Haven't heard it but will check it out, Thanks.
If you loved this, check out Suite: Judy Blue Eyes from their first album. It's a 4-part suite with brilliant harmonies.
Yes and also Country Girl from this album.
I had heard that song growing up, and liked it, but it just got relegated to the attic of my mind. But then I ran across it maybe 7-8 years ago. And it blew my mind. I listened to it over and over and over. I forced my son to listen. (He was unimpressed.) I bored people at work about it. It is one of my all-time favorite songs. it has everything a person would ever want in a song, imo. It literally (actually literally, not how the kids use the words) gives me goosebumps every single time I listen to it. It's a rare thing in life that could be better than that song.
Nope 4 WAY Street way way better....
@@billspencer9430nope
Nah check 4 way street version
Wanna be blown away? Listen to their “Suite Judy blue eyes”…
Neil Young & Steven Stills from Buffalo Springfield, David Crosby from the Byrds, and Graham Nash from The Hollies. First performance live together was at Woodstock. They only did this one album altogether; Crosby, Stills, and Nash did one self-titled album before this, and the 4 of them did one live album. CSN did more albums later, and Young, of course, had a great solo career to this day.
No offense, but Woodstock was their second time playing live, not first, and they have done several studio albums together, not just one.
You're right, Stills said it was their 2nd performance when he spoke at Woodstock. I did mention the other albums.
@@user-pf7jm9go6o Then why did you say "They only did this one album altogether" ?
Deja Vu was the only album in which Neil Young appeared. That’s why they are primarily known as CSN.
Their “4-Way Street” live album is a great compilation of their songs.
Don't worry about looking foolish - ever. You are on a journey and learning as you go. Great reaction!
That sudden transition always sounds like the most hippie moment in music history to me. I just have to spray patchouli and wave my arms in the air while trying to sway with my no longer very flexible torso. 😳
Hahaha 😆 yeah that was sudden and massive. It comes out of nowhere, but it's perfect
Steven Stills is criminally under rated as a guitarist. Wooden Ships is an amazing song. The studio version is great and a must listen but the live version from the Daylight Again tour is jawdropping.
'Helplessly hoping', 'Deja vu', 'Guinevere', 'suite Judy blue eyes', don't stop now!!!!!!
One of the best albums ever...
they've produced some of the most heartbreakingly beautiful music (Wooden Ships, Guinnevere ) & created an iconic West Coast "sound" that led to bands like America ( Horse With No Name, Ventura Highway)
David Crosbys' solo album "If I Could Only Remember My Name" is a real gem, pure mood & atmosphere. If you dig CSN & sometimes Y, you will love this one.
YES!! The album takes me right back to that timed, and Cowboy Movie is my favorite!!
@@Kevin6059 My favorite is “Laughing”
Good job man for bringing that up ..................RIP David !
IF I COULD ONLY REMEMBER is a seminal album of the era. Clapton's LAYLA. Dave Mason's ALONE TOGETHER. Carole King's TAPESTRY. Loggins & Messin'a SITTING IN. Joni's BLUE (although I favor FOR THE ROSES). But one day, folks will discover PET SOUNDS and realize that was a turning point.
@@Cbcw76 I am embarrassed to say that not until I watched that movie did I realize the extent of the Beach Boy's harmonies' genius.
Deja Vu is one of the best albums of that era! 🔥
This song was recorded before Neil Young joined the band. Steve Stills sang the lead vocals, played the lead guitar, and played the organ. This shows why they needed Young to join, because Stills couldn't play both the guitar and keyboards at the same time live, and Neil Young had played with Stills before in the group Buffalo Springfield (see "For What It's Worth").
No way overplayed see Uno Mundo and ss you did BLUEBIRD
You wanna hear transitions, listen to "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" on the first CSN (no Young) album.
Definitely Stephen Stills finest moment. That opening acoustic guitar is just so beefy, and the sheer ambition and power of the song is just amazing!
Love Graham Nash’s high harmony. Impressive!
👍🏼🎸🎼😎❤️
This whole album is amazing. Every song. Part of the soundtrack of my early teen years. I still have my original vinyl.
"Your favorite CSN&Y or solo."
Oh...oh man...?
Ask me my favorite child, that's easier.
There are so many good songs: Suite: Judy Blue Eyes, Woodstock, Teach Your Children, Ohio, Helpless, Our House, Helplessly Hoping, Almost Cut My Hair
"Country Girl" from this album is an amazing Neil Young tune. Just beautiful.
You rock, man. "Helpless" is a Neil Young produced single featuring the rest of Cosby, Stills & Nash. He came and went from the lineup, is the best way to put it.
They were all virtuoso rock 'n roll performers, producers, ensenblists and pop music entrepreneurs. They all contribute to pop music to this day.
Thanks bro I appreciate it 🙏 glad you enjoyed. I am definitely diving in on these guys. This was spectacular. Another rabbit hole...
Gifted musicians, every one.
Welcome to the Stephen Stills show. This was nearly all Stills. His song, his wah wah guitar, his lead vocals.
And spanking acoustic rhythm guitar too.
Graham Nash was a member of The Hollies. Top hits include Carrie-Anne, Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress, Bus Stop. He left one group known for their harmonies to another. Stephen Stills was a member of Buffalo Springfield with Neil Young.
Check out their 1970 live version of Neil's song Southern Man. They're best known for their harmonies but the guitar duel between Nash and Young is EPIC.
Had to subscribe because of your commitment and love for The Who. Keep up the great reactions.
Thanks Gary I appreciate that glad to have you! I will definitely check that out. Sounds awesome lol
Slight correction: the guitar duel is between Young and Stills.
‘Helplessly hoping’ is a harmonizing perfection!
Don't worry, Lee -- these guys could all play everything so it's sort of pointless to try and figure out who is doing what on any particular song (although in time you'll start to learn their individual styles.) But this is one of those groups that have a very tangled and complicated family tree. They took the tight 3-part harmonies found in folk music (Peter, Paul & Mary, etc.) and melded it to flower power pop-rock, creating a sound that was very hip for the period. They influenced a ton of other musicians, even British prog bands like Genesis. They were so successful with the two albums (this and the one before) that they could sort of coast for the next 30+ years, putting out the occasional reunion album or touring together. But their individual personalities often clashed, and substance abuse took its toll. Still, they definitely left their mark!
This group and this song is emblematic of the experimental creativity that was prevalent in the '60s and '70s.
I thought I saw an interview with Stills once where he said Neil was not on this track. The lead guitar definitely sounds like Stephen.
The genius of Steven Stills.
Stephen Stills and Neil Young were in Buffalo Springfield, David Crosby was previously with the Byrds, and Graham Nash was in the British band the Hollies - hence super group status.
They had a Great Live double Album from ‘71 called “ 4Way Street”
Its Stephen Sills song. The guitar and organ playing, percussion, and solo singing for "Carry On" is Sills. The entire album is top 3 in all of rock history. He's the MVP of "Deja Vu" IMHO. Review the rest of the album--you will not be disappointed.
Awesome thank you for the info. Wiki was no help when I recorded this. I'm definitely listening to more from this album. This was amazing.
Suit Judy Blue Eyes is a great song cycle that David Crosby wrote about his break up with Judy Collins. One of my favorites is Ohio which is about the Kent State massacre where the national guard gunned down 4 college students for protesting the war in Viet Nam. Either of those would be a great listen. Also an earlier flavor of this would be Buffalo Springfield, which has Stills and Young in it. Check out their For What it's Worth.
Crosby DID NOT write Suite Judy Blue Eyes/
'teach your children' and 'country girl'
One of my FAVORITE CSNY songs! They do several/many great ones..."Everybody I Love You", "Almost Cut My Hair", CSN "Southern Cross. You can play any of them, if ya want. Peace and love to all!
one of my favs..just love the band and everything about it
One of my favourite albums of all time and I love this song!
Takes me back to me blasting this on my dad's hi-fi.
True international super group.
Steven Stills and David Crosby
American
Graham Nash British
Neil Young Canadian from my hometown of Winnipeg.
Their harmonies always give me goosebumps!
Me too ! Lol 😂 you’ll have to explain to Lee what a Hi-Fi is…
@@johnnyfrederick01 LOL Yes,
Lee is probably thinking what is a hi-fi?
I remember buying this album when it first came out. I couldn't help but feel like I'd heard every track before!!!! Check out The Hollies too. You'll be glad you did. Thanks again.
This is a must have album for anyone who loves good music of any genre.
A song from 4 way street that features Neil Young is On the Way Home really good. Pre Roads Down & a longer version of 49 bye byes is awesome.
"Country Girl" and "Almost Cut My Hair" are great songs on the album as well
Definitely gonna do those. Seems like a lot of people are recommending them! Thank you.
A few comments say Almost Cut My Hair (from the same album) should be next. Couldn’t agree more
Definitely doing that one next!
I’ve been listening to this song most of my life (I’m almost 69). I’ve never tired of this song. And the bass line…..unbelievable!
Stills was really the mastermind behind the songwriting and production in CSN music
What a beautiful song! You will also appreciate "Suite: Judy Blues Eyes" and many others. Stephens Stills was the genius in the band back then. You should also check out "Bluebird" from Buffalo Springfield which features Stephen Stills and Neil Young. Find the longest studio version.
This song started out as a Buffalo Springfield song when Stills &Young were in it. The song was called Questions and became part of this song.
Sweetheart I’m so happy you’re with us so hard to get out of. Send my love you’re doing an awesome job. I’m listening to all your reactions. In bad hard times all your angels are around you peace and love from someone who cares about you 66 years young am I. Barbara from Philly
Guinevere is the song that played immediatly after my first inhalation of cannabis. It is the best harmonies I have ever heard since. Helpessly Hoping is another beautiful song. In my Hippie days I crosse the ferry to Sausalito to find Stephen Stills house. Neil Young drifted in and out of the group at different times.
and 'Helpless'
The vocals harmonies were The Big Thing about Crosby, Stills, & Nash and continued to be after Neil joined up with them. There's even lore about how Graham Nash came to meet Stills & Crosby at a party and he agreed to take a stab at adding his upper range voice on top of Crosby's & Stills' singing one of Stills' songs. They all looked at each other & everyone watching on, agreed that what they had heard was magical. A new "super group" was thus formed...
This song was already recorded before Neil Young joined the band..
Steven Stills played with Neil Young previously in the Buffalo Springfield band.
David Crosby was from the Byrds
Graham Nash was from the Hollies
thats why this is called a super group 😂
Steve Stills is phenomenal artist. He wrote this song. He is the only artist who got Eric Clapton and Jim Hendrix to play on his first solo album. He is in the Hall of Fame for the group and a song writer.
The musicians in this band were all great. They were all in other bands before forming CSNY. They have so many more great songs to discover.
Dallas Taylor on drums who went on to play with Manassas with Steven Stills. Neil does play lead guitar on this track. Also, the dog on the front cover was a neighborhood dog who meandered into the photo and is now a part of music history!
Lead is definable Stills. Young might not even be on this studio track.
@@mrmott44 on 2nd thought, I agree!
Beautiful guitars and harmony! Got to hear suite Judy blue eyes! A must!! Thanx again! Woodstockers!
"Woodstock," "Almost Cut My Hair," "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" (has several transitions, by the way), "Wooden Ships."
They all contributed their own songs to the album. Young contributed "Country Girl" and "Helpless"..Nash "Teach Your Children" and "Our house"..Crosby "Almost Cut My Hair" and Deja Vu"..Stills "Carry On" and "4 + 20" and collaborated with Young on "Everybody I love you"..and Joni Mitchell contributed the song "Woodstock"..The great thing about this album is once you get to know their individual writing styles you can pick them out..Each song has their personal fingerprint (so to speak) on it, yet when they sing together they are as one..They really complimented each other perfectly...Such a great album..Nice reaction.
I saw them live and they opened with this...not going to lie, i had tears in my eyes.
Welcome to the world of fantastic music!
Straight up, watching you react to this classic makes me feel like I took this music for "granted"
You're bringing life back into the music bro thanks
Great song. Deju Vu one of those rare albums with no clunkers. No need to skip except for listener fatigue. Several of the songs were in heavy rotation on classic rock radio for decades, including Carry On.
Country Girl is the one I keep returning to. The song before it, 4 + 20, is a great lead up to Country Girl, musically and lyrically.
My Dad hated rock vocals. He didn't think any of them could sing a lick (Except for Jack Bruce. He actually came into my room one day when I was playing Cream and said, "Now that guy can sing". I'll never forget that day. 😇) BUT he did say even though he didn't like their voices individually these guys knew how to sing.
Stephen Stills is a great arrange. He can put 2songs together. Plus being a great underrated guitar player.
You just hit the jackpot! Steven Stills and Neil Young were in Buffalo Springfield, David Crosby in The Byrds and Graham Nash in the English band The Hollies. Their first album was without Neil. If it hadn't been for huge egos and too many drugs they would have been as successful as the Beatles! You need to listen to Ohio, Our House, Teach Your Children, Suite Judy Blue Eyes, Almost Cut My Hair, Helpless, Wooden Ships, Woodstock - the list of greats goes on and on!
each and every song on this one is a masterpiece
The short story on this band is that they were all befriended by and came together at the home of Mama Cass of "The Mama's & Papas" and that one of their very first gigs was at Woodstock believe it or not. They hung with groups of heavily talented people in the Mulholland Drive scene like Joni Mitchell, who is credited with expanding their guitar and songwriting skills not to mention dating David Crosby. Long story short, they are one of the most iconic pop/rock/folk groups the 60's ever produced...As far as other songs by them you'd like, they fall in that rarified strata like Steely Dan, when I truthfully can say....."ALL OF THEM."
Wore this album out!! Yes, you can feel the love...wish the youngins would do music like this, we need it. ❤😊
fascinating watching young people in particular react to classic rock- these "changes" in songs were part and parcel to songs!
A must own album for all who appreciate The Classic Era.
Now you have to check out Crosby Still & Nash's "Southern Cross".. The (Official Music Video HD) version.. One of their greatest songs.. The harmonizing will knock your headphones off..
I bought that when it came out. still have it.
One of the greatest albums bar none!!!
One of my favorite albums of all time, all bangers. This supergroup has been an important influence in my life since before I even heard of Jethro Tull, their harmonies are always on point. We often refer to them as "CSN and sometimes Y".
CSN&Y is one of the finest folk rock bands ever created. One of the foremost harmony as melody bands. And they had a strong social conscience which helped guide an entire generation. Plus Joni Mitchell was a fan and dated Graham Nash (she always had great taste).
They came from 3 other bands. The Bryds, The Hollies and Buffalo Springfield.
The day the magic happened
No worries man it was often complicated with these 4. Crosby, Stills and Nash were great, and when Neil joined he brought them to the next level.
“You Don’t Have to Cry” is so good and the engineering is wonderful and it’s all Stephen Stills. ✌🏻🤟🏻🤘🏻
One of my favs is Dark Star, around 1977, off of the album CSN a really jazzy tune, u will like!
You mention the vocal harmonies: I saw CS&N in Champaign IL way back. They stopped the concert to tell the audience to sit down and shut up so they could hear each other sing.
These guys are SUPERB!!!!
Folk Rock with some Psychedelic thrown in.
We called it Normal, Too much good stuff back in the day, glad to see you enjoying it Peace
Man you really cannot go wrong with that entire Album, Epic stff
amazing works by them , Dark Star , Daylight Again , Cathedral , Turn Your Back , Delta , Guinnevere , Ohio ( about the Kent State events) Wooden Ships , Woodstock and more .
Neil Young joined late in recording and only appears on the songs he wrote or co-wrote. And their cover of Joni Mitchell's "Woodstock." No, he is not on this song.
Main vocals, all guitars, keys and bass by Stephen Stills.
Crosby and Nash with Stills on harmonies.
Wikipedia lists the songs the people appear on. If they are not listed on a song, they aren't on it. The Wikipedia is pretty clear.

Still and Young were from Buffalo Springfield, Nash was from the Hollies, and Crosby was from the Byrds. Check out "Suite Judy Blue Eyes"
"Suite Judy Blue Eyes" is a must listen!! (and hopefully react) IMHO that was their magnum opus.
This band is a DEEP well of amazing and positive music you will love. 'Wooden Ships' is a great anti-war song. David Crosby became good friends with Phil Collins and collaborated on some of his best tunes (think 'Another Day in Paradise'). Phil wanted David because Crosby came up with such crazy, funky good harmonies.
I own this great masterpiece album since 1972. And have probably handled and listened to it thousands of times since. And i just noticed for the very first time today, that credit is given on the front of the album cover to Dallas Taylor & Greg Reeves…damn…I didn’t know i was that brain dead…😂😂😂
This Deja Vu album is one of my 10 favorite albums of all time!!! Definitely recommend the song "Woodstock". From the first album, CSN, definitely recommend "Wooden Ships", "49 Bye-Byes", and Helplessly Hoping". From the album Daylight Again I recommend "Southern Cross", "Wasted on the Way", and David Crosby's "Delta"!!!!!
Folk Rock is a good description. CSN/Y have lots of great stuff. Suite: Judy Blue Eyes or Wooden Ships will be fun for you.
Stills tacked on his "Questions" from the Buffalo Springfield's third and final lp to end "Carry On". The original is still one of my all-time favourite Buffalo Springfield songs. Give it a listen. Jimmy Karstein played the drums on it.
for the best of both worlds, check out David Gilmour - "The Blue "- featuring Crosby and Nash doing the harmonies with David and Richard
"Ohio" and "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" are a must.
Buffalo Springfield The Hollies The Byrds ... Rick James (Super Freak) recommended Greg Reeves as he and Neil Young played together when they were young. This album is a classic from start to finish. Harmony heaven.
The second half of the song, the part after the transition, was originally a song written (and mostly played) by Stills called "Questions" on the third and last album by Buffalo Springfield (Last Time Around). Neil wasn't on that track either because the group was essentially already broken up by the time the album was put together. (Stills takes the lead vocal on this CSNY track.) If you want to see something electrifying, find the live version of CSNY doing Long Time Coming on Tom Jones's TV show--with Jones on co-lead vocals.
