In 1976, the 4 members of CSNY found themselves operating as 2 separate duos. One, led by Stephen Stills and Neil Young, recorded the album Long May You Run during the spring, then went on tour in the summer. Within days of hitting the road together, all the tensions that existed between the 2 since their days with the Buffalo Springfield came to a head. Young bailed after just 9 shows, sending Stills a telegram that read "Dear Stephen, funny how some things that start spontaneously end that way. Eat a peach. Neil." Things were much different for the duo of David Crosby and Graham Nash. They also recorded an album together, Whistling Down The Wire, and went on tour in support of it. Crosby and Nash, however, were harmonious off stage and produced beautiful harmonies on it. This HQ audience recording, from legendary taper Jerry Moore, catches the duo at the Wollman Rink in New York City’s Central Park on September 10, 1976, 36 years ago today. The Wollman Rink was the site of the Schaeffer Music Festival, which ran from June to September from 1968 through 1976, after which Dr. Pepper took over sponsorship (go here for more info). Download this one, therefore, to own a copy of what just might be the last concert ever in the Schaefer Music Festival series. PS - thanks to the folks at rock rare collection fetish for the covers.

Could we get this one back please? 1976 - When Crosby/Nash made Stills/Young look bad for leaving. Better album, better band, & better tour. For a 1976 audience recording this is just fantastic. A re-up would most sincerely be appreciated. Thanks!
