  • What was once pure "genius", has now become "maestro", without par. Those who are not musicians, will not understand how incredibly difficult it is to play, and sing, this live. If not, just sit back and enjoy. The musicians among us, will just gaze on in stunned awe.
    I didn't get to see them do this in Sydney, because of Stills contracting the flu and not having a decent enough voice. In a way, I'm glad. Woodstock, be damned.

Now we have a son. Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, you shaped our youth and placed something in our brains that can never be erased. To hear your songs and your incredible harmonies will always ALWAYS be a balm on our souls as we age. I love you.

When I hear this I’m transferred back in time . Laying in my bed at night. Listening to music like this on my crystal set.

    Vale - David Crosby
    One of the best & greatest Singer/Musicians has passed away aged 81.
    Along with his mates Stephen Stills, Graham Nash and Neil Young, Crosby created some of the most iconic late 60's & early 70's music.
    I know they started in the mid-60's, though to me they epitomise WOODSTOCK.
    The Vocal harmonies rival anyone else in the music world.
    Their Guitar work and their sublime Bass lines were ground-breaking and ahead of their time.
    Even as a very young child I knew their music was very special.
    RIP Mate, thanks for all the musical joy you brought us.

    I am amazed at the voice quality that they all have maintained. Crosby, with the smooth, low harmony, hasn't lost anything, and I can understand that. Nash, always singing the great high part, is almost unbelievable here. It is most difficult, next to impossible, to maintain a range like that while getting on in years. This was a truly awesome performance.

      @@jackquarantillo5192 see, I have come to the conclusion that Stills did the highest parts in falsetto back in the day. Nash is on top for 99% of the time, but in certain parts Stills goes on top. The “Friday evening” section on the original seems to me like nash is in the middle. It would make sense that you don’t hear that very top part as Stills probably can’t do the falsetto anymore. Also pretty sure Nash’s voice is a bit auto tuned on this

    The pure JOY and look of love on their faces when they triple high five at the end! What a beautiful moment to witness. Seemed like three young boys, happy and carefree. It struck me as quite a juxtaposition to the complex performance they just gave, especially having read about all they have been through over the years, individually and collectively.
    I think their age and life experience added a beautiful depth and tone to their voices and performance. To see these three together at this age (I am not far behind them) is a real gift. Im'a listen again and likely cry again too!
