@rfranklinw1 I'm 23 now and hell yeah this music still is more than peace. Maybe these words can discribe: "There's a feeling shared today By the people whose freedom Has been taken away And as in the past When times were wrong The common folks Come together in song And no matter how it make you feel We got something they can't steal No, they can't take away our music!"

@neohiomale1947 I play Judy Blue Eyes all different, listen to the early outtakes. They're unreal and if my ear's right I play open c and drop the Low E a whole step, you'll here it... I'm still trying to play though I'll never play like the master and I'm not bad... I'm 40, so I grew up with the right music and love Stills and Young, Springfield's a GREAT!

@jczother you are right, tuning is EEEEBE, same as Suite: Judy Blues Eyes ;-) I had to chance to see Steven when he was with Buffalo Springfield on the sunset strip when I lived in san diego.

I was born on 4-20 and my name is stephen

Greatest wooden player ever, I've tried to play his stuff for 20 years. Even the guy here on You Tube is wrong. The strings are all tuned to E but the B, The open C stuff he does on the 69 demo's is unreal and his voice was so clean and could hit the high notes then. I seen below "Go Stephen"

Growing up and even as an adult I never really knew my father or what tormented him. He passed several years ago, and for me...this song is my answer.

when steve came to visit that summer,he played football out in the yard with all of us kids,but when the notion and the mood hit him he would find a special place and just sit there and play and sing.I am fifty six years old now and I will never forget him just sitting there on the curb playing that old martin,I was spell bound and had never seen anyone play guitar like that before.He was a nice guy and all of us kids had a great time with him.

I grew up in a small southern illinoi town when i was a kid. One spring my next door neighbors kept telling all us kids that thier cousin steve was comeing from down south for part of the early summer. Shure as the world he showed up on foot with holes in his faded jeans,sandy long hair,and an old vintage martin guitar on his back ,i think that it had been handed down to him from his grandfather.It was shortly after that summer that i took up guitar playing for life.
