Love it!!! This is one of my favorite CSN songs - and you guys are the only ones I've ever heard that do it justice - I can't stop playing this over & over, absolutely great!!!!! Hope you do more songs soon!
I enjoyed it. But it's Chekhov's gun (guitar) here. Why just hold the guitar, middle man? Haha. But the nice voice distracts enough, I guess it doesn't matter.
Why are you guys playing the same chords simultaneously? Thats a fail. Someone needs to be playing alternate harmony chords...something other than what the main chords. Cmon guys. Get it together.
@mechiefslapahobitch The only difference between Stills and Nash on this song was that Graham had his high e tuned to D. Stills sounds like he was playing in standard.
I see now why I should of been single, if I was married I have no time to practice and sing as good as these boys, bravo stay single, stay happy, drink beers with good friends when ever.
@chicagotransam ~ Yer Right, all Married for many years, & 11 children between the 3 of us. Check out Helplessly Hoping or Seven Bridges & you'll see evidence, my 2nd oldest. Many of our children enjoy producing great music! We'll see if we can do another one when we get together again this Christmas.
lol... I watch this vid at least once a week.....ya STILL gotta do it in it's natural key......cuz of us amateurs... (don't mind me......you are still awesome....)
@Missyc0416 One of my favorites to play is Blackbird, but I love, Eagles, N Young, Gordon LIghtfoot, Dan Fogelberg etc... (also 70's - 80's rock) ~ Cheers, Larry
THis is fantastic. Love the way you all nail the vocals almost perfectly. Being that it's Crosby, Stills, & Nash, "almost perfectly" is insanely good!
Nice to hear another band with 3 brothers. We also have 3 of us playing and singing. I think this is a little fast and you lost some feel. Just my critique, harmonies are there, but needs some feel. Still a Great job!
I was apprehensive to even click on the link.....cause CSN are such masters....but, I'm glad I did. The best cover of this song I've ever heard. Bravo, guys.
BY FAR your best recording. i had been trying to diagnose your biggest problems, and this video helped. your guitars sound too quiet in some of your other videos. you could also benefit from a strong lead voice, but don't get me wrong - you guys are very good.
@mariofan4523 You´re kidding, right ? I mean, this guys are great, maybe a little "uptempo" but, come on man ! Have you ever payed attencion to Stephen Stills voice ? And specially on this song.
That was AMAZING!! I love the way you all sing the different parts and the harmonies. Wow. I am gobsmacked! I will definately look for more stuff from you guys.
Another great cover guys..... hey just wondering what are the guitars your using ? sounds good . Keep it up. Your videos put mine to shame but i enjoy it lol.
I'm impressed they are realy good. Why don't you guys try doing something by America one of my favorite bands. I sing this song with friends to but you guys have this down pat.
I'm just curious... I have dabbled into this song for a bunch of years and have never learned it completely because I always have a hard time with the sincapation between guitar and voice. Did you guys experience this too? I really like this song and guess I just need to put my nose to the grinstone and learn it.
INCREDIBLE!!!!! Love this rendition! Great guitar and vocal harmonies! You guys absolutely nailed this Crosby, Stills Nash classic to PERFECTION!!!! Gotta' save this video in my favorites!!! Stunningly beautiful!!!
These guys are sweet. However, don't forget about the person in the background (not on film) that is playing the tamborine. They are critical to this dynamic sound.
@senn416 You must be the guy sitting on the left next to the soundboard. That's a clever way to implement percussion into a three man guitar circle. You guys have great harmony considering this is an informal recording. Well done. Keep up the homage to a highly under-appreciated, great american band.
@senn416 OK......Gimme the chords you guys use...I am just learning (46...but what the hell huh?)...Trying to strum along with ya, but can't quite get the chords right (from the version I know)..
You guys did a terrific rendition of a great song. I especially enjoy the full sound of the 12 string guitar and the great harmonizing of your voices. Way to go. I look forward to listening to more covers you guys put together. Great job!!
Hey Hartley bros.! I like this! Nice strong voices. The guitars are a little bit strong in the mix tho...so it overpowers your manly harmonies a little... :)
I don't say this often, but you guys are REALLY GOOD...my brothers and I play ogether quite a bit, and we aspire to be this good...Great job, and a good song...
you guys are awesome!! Cheers from Canada.
