damn it! i saw this documentry on BBC4 other night about these and other great acts like Joni Mitchell....i only got the first album but man it blows me away.....i must get other albums!
any recommendations for someone without a clue but likes good music.
i never heard this version of blackbird before.....simply beautiful.
I'll bet Graham couldn't believe it...only a short time before he'd left the hollies partly because they were reluctant to release this song and here he is performing it in front of the Woodstock masses...good decision Graham!
F. dude! I don wanna see chickens and animals on a train if I go on vacation. U one strange freakin' dude. And besides, if your chick's hair smells like a garden, she's prolly been sleepin in one all nite. Uh-huh.
I love it so much!!! They are awesome! I actually like this version of Blackbird better than the original, they just have that beautiful voices! Thank god that they started singing together :)
hey man on marrakesh express I know Nash is playing guitar and then crosby and stills are doing there own little thing with marraccas and stuff but whos playing the bass?
Their voices blend like no other trio. When they sing together, it's like there's a 4th voice there, and I don't mean Neil Young, who never really added all that much.
The one who is hardest to hear is Crosby. He blends so well and so selflessly. I think I heard him on Blackbird standing out more clearly than on any other song, singing the bass. Nash had the highest voice and sang tenor, while Stills usually sang lead.
I agree with you and say Stephen was the undisputed leader Graham liked to think he was the inovator but he wasnt Stephen was the heart of this group David the rebel bad boy and Graham the glue that put it all together there was only heart and soul and it was Stephen Stills I was there and I know we connected that night in ways I will never discribe
I was there that morning and cried when they left I fell deeply in love with Stephen and thought the others were okay but when you love the best no one else will do and no one will ever sing like he does he sings like the angel I think he is
You have no idea lucia be 5 feet from them sitting there looking up into the face of a no kidding on earth angel I was stunned and in rapt awe when I fell in love with my "older man" I was 12 at the time What A experience
same here. Although the Beatles were great....CSNY was greatly underestimated...The Byrds, The Hollies, The Buffalo Springfield- All were overlooked. I really love CSN's cover of Blackbird miles and miles more than The Beatles.
"Marrakesh Express' just transports me back to my teens. Beautiful, skilful harmonies. Stephen Stills's little neo-classical guitar break during "Blackbird" (at 3:45)has always fascinated me. It's absolute perfection personified! Stills has to be one of the greatest guitarists ever. Even Jimi Hendrix rated him above himself. I've just worked out that guitar break after 30 yrs thanks to scrutinising this clip from 'Serpico104'. Music doesn't come any better than this.
You're right except I wouldn't say that Stills, one of the greatest guitarists, as you said, was better than Hendrix. Jimi was way too humble. Jimi was as good as you get. Too much rating in music in my opinion. Stills altered his own style often to sound more like Jimi. They were good friends and had great mutual respect. Peace
MilesTrane21; I saw Hendrix around 4 times live when i lived in London during 1967-1968. He was beyond belief. But alot of the time Jimi used the same Blues licks and sometimes he was so stoned he blew it.( Saw this happen!) Stills' rooted in folk music and intricate tunings etc..almost like Michael Hedges at times. Being a Blues fanatic myself Jimi is my hero but Stephen's technique is fear inspiring. But it's all down to personal liking.
You saw him 4 times? That's awesome. I love them both but because I'm really into mind-blowing, hard, demanding music Hendrix is my favorite guitarist. I just don't like the "Hendrix pwns Stills" kind of arguments and ranking the musicians. They had different styles and I'm not going to say one was better than the other. I want to listen to one or the other depending on my mood. I envy you, I'm too young to have Hendrix.
MilesTrane21; Yeah, the downside to all this is i'm now 58 yrs old & your 17! I really liked the band "LOVE" as well (Arthur Lees band) You're absolutely right. It's all down to different styles. There was so much musical talent back in the 60s and the political message that CSNY/Hendrix/Baez/Guthrie etc gave out was unmatched. Today most music artists don't have alot to say. Commercial profit comes first. I'm so glad Crosby, Stills,N&Y are still around to tell the real story.
MilesTrane21; I have to give you credit. For a young person you have GREAT taste. I only wish more youngsters today were listening to GOOD music like Stephen Stills rather than rap & Britney Spears! But then it was the same when i was 17 and most kids were into glam rock.(holy crap!_
You know, I was watching this and just noticed that at the start of the song(until 00:24)Graham's mouth IS NOT MOVING! WHAT is that all about?! Did they just have a bit of trouble in the editing after all these years this has sat on the shelf(matching visual to audio, like in an interview here on Youtube of Stephen and Neil)????
I can't think of a better acoustic guitar rock video than this, discounting Beatles. CSN, in their prime, at Woodstock! Nice Woodstock poncho, Stephen; Ebay and history beckon for a listing.
People, do you realize that they are playing Blackbird like it's already a classic, while it was just half a year after it has been released? I miss those kind of songs nowadays..

Cheers so much for posting this,love C<S<N also C<S<N<Y,also love the Springfield anybody have a video of smile on your brother to post.Love hippies whatever that means, its not a real term and never was but these people were creative and for their time groundbreaking. It was so controversial that when it was played on american tv at the time they usually made it into a comedy sketch so as to not upset the more straitlaced viewers.
All i've got to say is even if you don't like "hippies", you have to respect the fact that they're sick musicians..i don't like metal music but some of their music is pretty technical..im not going to dog them for playing it..i'll leave the negative comments for paris hilton and others who make money out of music and waste our time...and one more thing...if youre so against hippies..why the hell would you click on a Crosby Stills and Nash link. Way to know what you want ha
Lets see what greene64's children have to say about his music someday. I certain that with his expert guidance that should he produce any offspring at all they will be every bit as stupid as he is.
what were so wrong about the hippies all they wanted was peace just because they did stuff they shouldnt have like free sex and drugs had great ideas and thought we should live in a world of peace not war now whats so wrong about that huh it sounds like u want there to war
Loved CS&N since they were Buffalo Springfeild and the Byrds. Can't believe i don't remember this rendition of "Blackbird'. Just confirms the T-shirt prophet: "If you remember the 60's you weren't there". Thanks for a memory..........where's that roach babe?
Well, old dummie Nash really SCREWED UP, didn't he?! These guys were are STILL ARE the A NUMBER 1, PINNACLE, TOP OF THE LINE, MOST ACCOMPLISHED, ALL-TIME TOTALLY BEST HARMONIOUS AMERICAN GROUP OF ALL TIME. STUNNING, BRILLIANT, TEAR-JERKING HARMONIES! Thanks so much 4 posting! Gotta love the SOUND!
I still listen to the Beatles white album 39 years after it came out, how come when I hear so called "rock music " now i cant even listen to it for 3 min, let alone years
This is used 4 the Christian Dior Catwalk Coutre Show 2007-8. I also heard it today on BBC radio, is it due for a comeback??? I like the studio LP version.
What heavenly harmony! In college we would listen to their albums over and over.They just put you in mellow places. I too wish this music would come back.
Blackbird starting at about 2:20 epitomizes to me the purity and beauty of the original CSN collaboration. The three of them are still in awe of the sound they make together. This is a song not written by one of them (McCartney) and so it is a performance of pure art of guitar and vocals. I don't think it was ver recorded. Florking GREAT!
You should be kicked of the Planet for Saying that word,and while Crosby,Stills,nash,and,Young are playing,It makes U really look like a jerk,the Whole point of the Soung is to BRING US TOGETHER,treat everyone as equals,Albert King would probably kick your rear end for even saying it. Respect all as equals. Long Live the Blues.
Pre drugs my ss, they are wasted in this video. They were so stoned at Woodstock that when they did Suite:Judy Blue Eyes they repeated a verse twice and left one out! Check out their eyes!
I agree. Fortunately, there are exceptions. Go check out Nellie McKay. Pay careful attention to Columbia Is Bleeding, Toto Dies, The Work Song, GLADD, GES, I Will Be There, Swept Away, Won't U Please B Nice, I Wanna Get Married(poking fun at the institution of marriage) If you appreciate CSNY as I do, You'll probably love Nelly also. One more thing ... she's as good on the piano as Stills or Clapton are on the guitar ... No, I'm not exaggerating!
When I hear this kind of great music it makes me wonder why music is so pathetic today? What do we have? Nigger rappers, weak-voiced little girl singers and generally American Idol crap. Back in the day, no one would have referred to CSN (and sometimes Y) as merely a boy band.

Black rappers glorifying the nigger word, rape, violence, greed, cop-killing, women-hating brutality, drug addiction - oh no, they're not niggers at all! I stand corrected. I suggest that you listen to Chris Rock comedy riff on this problem. It's hilarious. His says that blacks are more racist than whites, because blacks hate niggers, too! And yes, my friend, there is a huge chasm between a black person and a nigger.
Graham Nash looks frighteningly like Rod Hull - is Emu hidden behind Stephen Still's sidies? (sorry anyone outside the UK - Rod Hull was a children's entertainer. Google him, you'll see what I mean.)
DONT READ THIS 1997 a girl called lauren was walikng in a forest and then a she just dissapeared no one ever found her untill 2000 when a yoing girl called Mary found her body and markings on her chest saying: I wasnt pretty enough" and now you have read this she will appear in your mirror saying your not pretty enough and kill you. by the way the girl called mary died shortly after.

This song fills me with sweet meloncoly-reminds me of my parents, riding in the car with the top down and a hippy babysitter I had. :)

I heard that George Harrison and Paul Simon covered this song in 1974, but changed it to "The Bangladesh Express."

We used them all up. There's none left for today's youth. That's why they have to settle for what they have.

The amount of people disillusioned with the "quality" of current mainstream music is astonishing. I'm with you, I can't stand it either.

Blackbird starting at about 2:20 epitomizes to me the purity and beauty of the original CSN collaboration. The three of them are still in awe of the sound they make together. This is a song not written by one of them (McCartney) and so it is a performance of pure art of guitar and vocals. I don't think it was ver recorded. Florking GREAT!

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a song (from the 80's, I think...not really sure) about Marrakesh..."Come to Marrakesh, come to Marrakesh"...blablaba
If anyone knows the song, or found it somewhere,(eg: google) post the artist's name and the title of the song.
Many thanks.
PS: no, not the one by Icognito, Crosby Stills Nash Young, or ATB.

You should be kicked of the Planet for Saying that word,and while Crosby,Stills,nash,and,Young are playing,It makes U really look like a jerk,the Whole point of the Soung is to BRING US TOGETHER,treat everyone as equals,Albert King would probably kick your rear end for even saying it. Respect all as equals. Long Live the Blues.
P.S The express means HASHCOOSHCOOSH ride.

Pre drugs my ss, they are wasted in this video. They were so stoned at Woodstock that when they did Suite:Judy Blue Eyes they repeated a verse twice and left one out! Check out their eyes!

I agree. Fortunately, there are exceptions. Go check out Nellie McKay. Pay careful attention to Columbia Is Bleeding, Toto Dies, The Work Song, GLADD, GES, I Will Be There, Swept Away, Won't U Please B Nice, I Wanna Get Married(poking fun at the institution of marriage) If you appreciate CSNY as I do, You'll probably love Nelly also. One more thing ... she's as good on the piano as Stills or Clapton are on the guitar ... No, I'm not exaggerating!

When I hear this kind of great music it makes me wonder why music is so pathetic today? What do we have? Nigger rappers, weak-voiced little girl singers and generally American Idol crap. Back in the day, no one would have referred to CSN (and sometimes Y) as merely a boy band.

Black rappers glorifying the nigger word, rape, violence, greed, cop-killing, women-hating brutality, drug addiction - oh no, they're not niggers at all! I stand corrected. I suggest that you listen to Chris Rock comedy riff on this problem. It's hilarious. His says that blacks are more racist than whites, because blacks hate niggers, too! And yes, my friend, there is a huge chasm between a black person and a nigger.

Graham Nash looks frighteningly like Rod Hull - is Emu hidden behind Stephen Still's sidies? (sorry anyone outside the UK - Rod Hull was a children's entertainer. Google him, you'll see what I mean.)
