CSN Outtakes.

BernardShakey Permalink
BernardShakey This is my band, this is really fun to hear. Thought a couple of you would enjoy this. Musicianship is top-notch especially the vocals, and Stephen Stills actually sounds like a bit of a jerk at 5:59, haha.

Score: 2

MySoula This DVD is pretty sweet for those who haven't come across it.

My father-in-law let me borrow it, he also grabbed me an autographed vinyl of CSN (the album) awhile back.

You will dig it. Interesting takes on chemistry and how things all came together due to Mama Cass.

BernardShakey Read about it in a Rolling Stone magazine, but now I definately need to add it to the christmas list. Does it have a lot of rare footage of the artists?

It's been a few months since I watched it but it has a decent amount of interviews (most present day interviews) and a sense of what life was like living in a bubble of pure creativity that was laurel canyon.

Not a knock your socks off documentary but def some quality stuff in there for people who love the music.

MySoula CSN bump





wiki claims it's about family, BUT...

My father-in-law actually said this was written in Hawaii after grabbing some herb before flying back to the mainland. I guess Nash had his aviators license and would fly out and fly back. I guess the dealer was giving him heat about being a hotshot musician while he had to wait the rain out. Guy said he couldn't write a song before he left and he wrote this in under 30 minutes.

BernardShakey I did, I liked it a lot. I've seen a few really good documentaries about CSN&Y, and I'm always amazed by that creative bubble; All the right ingredients came together for that short space in time. It was just the perfect circumstances and context for that creative community that so many great artists lived in. I don't think it could happen again, not like that, not on that scale anyway. CSN&Y are my favorite, I was pretty much raised on 4 way street and Deja Vu, love those guys.
