Suite Judy Blue Eyes

[hugemangus]

CLASSIC ! ! !

[reptile5150]

@mega2846...You're SOOO correct! Amazing how many think its tuned different than SS does, he has to use Herco gold pics at times cause his index finger's so mangled up from use, I know, spent time with Stephen at his ranch near Caribou Ranch, Nederland, CO during Illegal Stills recording mid 70's

[GtoThaillDog]

tunings nice but it kind of ruins the beautiful ending because of the lingering E tone

[RussianBulgarian]

NJDirt really? are you 70?

[hpeter59]

The tuning is Fis, Es, Los and Sh..

Tumbs up for me being right... PLEASE..

[heartlandrails]

DADDAD tuning my friends.

[carbdcobra]

I started playin' it out of open D also. Older voices and not so many broken strings in the middle of a performance

[carbdcobra]

It's out of Open D. I used to play it in open E, too. But voices change over time and the higher key results in a lot more broken strings, as well. It's easier on the neck and is just an all around better key, especially if you're going to do a 100 dates all in row.

[JohnCWatson]

Thats what age does to the voice, the high notes are a lot harder :-)

[phsychokiler]

dodododododo do do do dododo!

[olchum47]

gonna have to look into this Palmer thing me thinks

[Fockerized404]

DIRTY GEEEETARRA

[DuctapePenguin]

7:40 listen to the beauty of EEEEBE tuning

1, 2, 6 strings remain same

3. 5 strings are lowered to E

4 string is raised to E

[pomawg]

Thanks, I was wrong, he does use Palmer's tuning on this and many others. Thanks again.

[alexhogan]

Un-frickin' belivable! Now I have to go listen to Southern Cross!

[deweypug]

Nice version, however I do not like all the chorus effects on Stills' guitar...

[maroonedsorrow]

It's not chorus, it's because all the strings on his guitar but one are tuned to the same note.

[pomawg]

It's either DADGAD OR DADDAD

[lonewoodwose]

I have read it is in "Bruce Palmer Modal Tuning" EEEEBE, seems weird but I think I can see it in his solo.

[pomawg]

That may very well be it... The Captain does so many different things ;)

[mothulicka]

EEEEBE

[absolutelyalice314]

My mom used to sing this song to me when i was a kid. Now, every time I hear it on the radio, I won't get out of the car until it's over.

[pomawg]

I love to hear about your generation learning about the great music we had. Our daughter - 39 - loves this song too!!...and the band... Me, I am a Stills nut!

[chrischutebox]

hey do they copy a cuban song if so whats the songs name..when they speak spanish

[alexhogan]

My 9 year old asks to hear CSN on a regular basis. She likes GOOD music ...The Hollies,CSN, CCR, most everything 80's, plus, The Diablo Swing Orchestra, Rasputina, and the "Repo! The Genetic Opera" soundtrack, which is just crazy fun!

[alexhogan]

I would give my left everything to play like him.

[pomawg]

You'd need your left arm!!

[alexhogan]

And I never got why Melissa Etheridge and Julie Cypher got him to father their child. After watching his bio on BIO and learning and loving their music, I get it!

[alexhogan]

I HATE live music! But is so amazing!!! I think this the best version of this song that I have heard!

[Fockerized404]

live music is amazing man

[klarmer]

Double S still rips shit up on the guitar.

ps. This reminded me a bit of Toad at Cream's Royal Albert Hall show, nice solo section.

[royefarol]

pomawg, thanks man, for sharing this.

[pomawg]

My pleasure man, It has been fun to watch the critics of this video, CSN obviously like it enought to put out the DVD! I also think nost of the critics are much younger than you and I. Be well my friend, music is the way!

[alexhogan]

There is a DVD? Tell me more!!!

[pomawg]

The Acoustic Concert DVD

Warfield Theater

San Francisco

November 1991

You are welcome!!!!

[babyrapor]

What the hell is Stephen saying at the end. Those aren't the original lyrics and unless I memorize it, I only know about 80 words in Espanol'. Laungisto piquito

[royefarol]

so shut up! your 80 words are enough for you to know that you have limited knowledge.

[alexhogan]

Are you sure it isn't Esparanto?

[gerden238]

Great song and great version. Fantastic!!!!!!!!!

[jongab13]

What an incredible version! Some really devastating talent there. Thanks for the posting.

[ojososo]

a little less bottom on the guitar, please.

[larry1955]

Geeez , the bottom makes it

When you play Martin guitars that cost several thousand dollars you go for that sound

[ojososo]

i was just going for a laugh. it's a remark that stills made while they were playing this song at woodstock.

[equilie]

Stephen in is fantastic form here, the guitar work is riveting! I love the tempo and drive in this. And in his solo the little flirtation with 'Carry On' (at 5:31), and how he chills the clapping tempo right down a few seconds later. The chords at 7:40 melt my heart every time. Every Time.

[widestrides]

Thanks for putting this up. Great version. Great quality! And great Stills solo at the "intermission."
