Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young live aid two songs

[theBESTdustyrose]

I agree with you 200% rattelwolfa. I have absolutely loved these guys since back in the late 60's and early70's.  Can't help but to keep coming back to this video again and again.

[psychlyst]

I love all the comments on Live Aid vids about how the bands sound like crap,too rushed,outta tune,blah blah blah...Live Aid was an event...alot of stuff like this was spur of the moment...this was HISTORY here...my reaction when I saw this that day was "Holy Shit...CSNY TOGETHER again!"...not,man they're outta tune...

[crazytrain81]

Who doesn't like David Crosby?

[professormacdeezy]

You've got to love Stephen stills' crackhead navy admiral jazzercise phase, sweatband and all..... it's too bad so much of the well-documented performances of these guys suck, because they ARE often AMAZING... This one definitely has the passion at least....

[DavelovesRealMusic]

They are out of tune and they knew it..but Stills revival of the lyrics was so inspiring!

[julyarchives]

Great video

[sinisalicanin]

remember watching it ,,I was 15 ,,,,amazing ,,,I love it ,,,,,real music,,,,,pure feelings!!

[captyoss]

[rpk0925]

[anchorrot]

@rpk0925  LIVE AID YOU STILL IN DIAPERS THEN???? 1985

[keo774]

the version of the cost of freedom is just brillant! absolutely beautiful!

[FAZOOO]

crosby is coked to the gills in this. read his book

[rattelwolfa]

Man who ever decided to cut this from the dvd should be stoned !!!!!!!! It's F%*#ing amazing !!!

[woodiestone]

Was at this concert.Hot as hell.Charged 3 buck for a cherry coke,Did I mention hot,had to be 105 degrees at 1 in the afternoon.Still an amazing concert;so much talent!

[stevedrums]

@woodiestone Me too! I was 15.

[MercuryWahWah]

David Crosby is a Big Piece of Dog Shit.

[keo774]

@MercuryWahWah ok now youll explain us why youd have to say an horrible thing like that

[crazytrain81]

@MercuryWahWah You're insane to say that. You may be more cracked out than Steven Stills.

[harmusic]

always great to see!!!

[golfsmoore]

Crosby high as a kite - too funny ... for sure that ... great perfomance from one of the best bands ever ,,, when truly awesome bands came out to play.

[juliedog464]

Neil is the only guy you can count on to do it right.. the other 3 are inconsistent.

[annyid8]

gee they're still great together aren't they, no matter how f-ed up Crosby was. That's how you do it kids.

[stjohnspoint]

God Bless America so

Crosby Stills Nash and Neil Young,

[Politcalamity]

Crosby is higher than a fucking kite.

[mainemom5]

I was closer to the big screen on the left....my now brother-in-law guessed when we were speculating about the four mikes being set up on stage...that it would be CSN&Y...I didn't see it...what did I know? they were so great!

[dpc915]

Crosby was not clean yet....very bad but still they do it OK...just read Crosbys first book....wow was he a major addict

[dfarmbrough]

Great performance. Sounds like they've been practising!

[1969ryson]

when did david get arrested?wasnt this before his arrest when he was still using heavily?

[Sargebri]

@1969ryson This was after his arrest, but he was out on bail at the time. I think he began serving his term in 1986 and got out around 1988.

[ryson1969]

@Sargebri Thanks for that. I know he was really messed up at the time.Its amazing he didnt ruin his voice.Stephen Stills hasnt sounded like his old self for a long time.I dont know if it was drinking or what.Thanks again.

[Sargebri]

@ryson1969 That's one reason they don't do "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" on stage anymore. Stills can't hit the high notes in that song anymore.

[csandpl]

@Sargebri : I suggest you guys check out CS&N's performance at the benefit "Bridge Collection" from some point in the past 10 years. Stills will blow your mind, I guarantee. You can find it on I-tunes.

[mantrano9]

well cool!

[cohen94]

really, JFK Stadium is in Philly. That is where Live Aid was. I was there. RFK was in DC you moron.

[Tineluss]

And this is how it's done.

[interstategar]

to all american idol wanta be's: study this!

[ReverendNovember]

@interstategar I hear your plea but will it change the way things are?

[paulbuet]

How fucked is David Crosby here man!

[MrDoorMuffin]

@paulbuet  very

[biezulbub669]

only love, can break, your heart..........

[2012Transformation]

Holy shit these guys are brilliant

[Rinty145]

Thanks for posting this video, I'll mark it as one of my favourites. Stills is a master with alternative tunings.

[magslyfarnham1]

Badly underrehearsed, no backing musicians, just voice and acoustic guitars with Croz really ill...couldn't hear themselves,,,,,and they still rock......if only Jimi had been alive to play ! The guitar interplay with Neil and Stephen is brilliant,,,,,Springfield again. I bet Jimi would have played with these guys...now that would have been some band...especially with Mitch and Noel/Billy on bass

[magslyfarnham1]

Poor David....glad he got better...this was a low point for him...Neil said he would never play with the Croz until get cleaned himself up but I guess he relented for Live Aid.

[BareFootPatriot]

I was there!

[jaywhofan]

I remember when I first saw this film. About 10-12 years ago. It shocked me seeing how bad David was. I had heard and read about his condition from this period, but it still shocked me.

[1951tank]

CSNY-----------What more can i say, or needs to be said for that matter-----------Go for it boys! You make an old timer veryu happy indeed.

[damagedangel10]

If anyone out there was in the Navy and has a captain,s jacket like this one and would like to sell it I would love to have it. I really want the original but will settle for a copy Post here if you do. Thanks Angel Navy Captains Jacket

[professormacdeezy]

@damagedangel10 Hopefully Stephen will sell his lol

[NewHopeNashFan]

Graham is the coolest dude on the planet! LOL. They sound pretty good, especially him.

[PlanetariumVagatio]

lol nash is just chilin with a pepsi... only a few people are watching him sing....

[gfac22]

Looks like JFK Stadium, which is in Philadelphia, I believe.

[ozzy1351]

Live Aid at JFK in Philadelphia.......Live Aid Wembley Stadium in the UK!

[ACERDOU40]

Great reunion of great artists

[tonymontana1974]

Wow i just read cosby, stills and nash are playing this years glastonbury festival along with neil young whos headlining 1 night there. Do you think they will reunite.

[fuckgegg]

where is this concert?

[tonymontana1974]

Glastonbury festival is near somerset it will be on t.v. this weekend. Neil young headline slot will be on friday night and cosby stills and nash SHOULD be on saturday afternoon.

[fuckgegg]

Is that in the US? Do you know what station will be showing this event?

Thanks for your reply!

[tonymontana1974]

Ah right no its not in the u.s. its about a hour away from london in england. I dont know if any stations will be showing it in america maybe they will be. Neil young will be on friday night and cosby stills and nash on saturday afternoon.

[fuckgegg]

you wouldn't know what station or time?

[tonymontana1974]

It was on bbc2 i dont know what time if you try the b.b.c. website theres a programme catch up service if theyw ere on t.v. it will be on there.

[fuckgegg]

Thanks!

[joganosh60]

Fkn' Amazing!  :))))

[notaphaser]

Well, THAT was pretty awesome.

Interesting mentality in display there, something that was pointed out by a certain Russian reviewer. "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" is probably a song that not many of the fans would've chosen to hear, but as the reviewer put it, CSNY seems to play what THEY want to play, not what the fans want them to play.

[swainrich]

raising my hand as a fan who would have requested to hear the song - it's one of my favorite five NY songs of all time.

doccame - Thank you for sharing this timeless video!

[loreli4fab]

Yeah,I agree.He's the shit anyway.Did you ever see him do the song with Macca?Paul does'nt know the words too well,but who gives a fuck.Two walking legends,I mean five legends.

[limunan]

are they the first time reunion?

in which year

[MartinGuitarLover1]

Great Concert!!!

[trfollower]

These guys are great musicians on their own, but the four of them together create so much magical energy, that there's nothing like it nowhere in the world

[k3304]

i was there. I live in Philadelphia

[pajasper]

This gave me goosebumps.

[ItsAllAboutNash]

How nice to see these fellows at it - it always is. Graham really gets high on the music, doesn't he?

[trickhoseroff]

I don't think its actually possble for Stills to make a fool of himself...the man is cool whatever he seems to do...

[damagedangel08]

What the hell are you saying? I was At this concert and Stephen was beautiful Watch the negative comments and keep them to yourself He was beautiful there and he still(s) is so if you were there and I suspect you wern't you don't know,

[tottototto]

stills is making a fool of himself.

[logjammers]

wtf are you talking about?

[hmjk85]

Cause of the way he looks, like an ageing hippie who thinks he's the best guitar player in the world.

BTW, his guitar has TOO much echo and reverb, and it continues to have that until the 90's, it ruined his sound.

[goofygoat08]

This is a treat.
