Steven Stills first is the best, with Jimi Hendrix on guitar and Steven offering up some pretty good organ work.
Garcia album is just without all of the constrants of the GD, its like everyone wanted to join in and that diluted Jerry's vision. Its chromium garcia and that aint half bad. Does have some melodic country rock appeal but unique spacey and minimalist sound also, totally unique.
Buffalo Springfield and many off projects are OK, some good some fair none to bad, a little early sounding, country rock, hippy dippy, BS for my tastes. Edited by DallasBryan - August 23 2006 at 10:02 |

Yes! i've got it already. Although the Hendrix intervention is not that impressive! Oh and BTW, i've ordered "Garcia". I've also bought a new HDCD remastered debut CSN with four bonus tracks this morning. Will tell you more when i'll be back home. |

remember blues rock with progressive feel to good drinkin or nodding musics.
besides the girls wont think your strange.
with songs like I NEED A LITTLE MORE WINE and lyrics like
when your married to H(heroin) your married for life!
how could you go wrong!

Buffalo Springfield Again is a terrific album for the time it was
released. Neil Young was in a very experimental stage and
"Expecting to Fly" and "Broken Arrow" are very adventurous and
semi-prog. "Mr. Soul" is a keeper, too. Stills' "Rock and
Roll Woman" is very good and still holds up decades later. The
album is a true blend of styles that really reflect what was going on
in the late 60s southern California music scene. It also
demonstrates the tension inside the band that was soon to splinter it
into various solo careers.

One of my favourite British blues albums - Chris Youlden in fine voice (probably my favourite vocalist from the period), and some great brass arrangements

This is a little off-topic, but I saw CSNY in Columbus last year, and those guys can still play. All of their voices have held up (especially Graham), but Stills was a little rusty. "Find The Cost Of Freedom" was heartbreaking, and the "Almost Cut My Hair" was all-out rock 'n roll. Those four are some of the best songwriters out there. PS - I hate plugs, but all you Deadheads or Dead appreciators pipe in on my Grateful Dead thread! It faded away with only a couple responses!

I'm sure Hugues beat me to it earlier.. a big shout out to Stills work
on Volunteers.. certainly one of the 'greatest albums of rock
that not everyone knows'. Wasn't that a special on VH1, one time?
