Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - 2002-04-28 - Tacoma, WA (ALD Matrix)

Earlier this month, as part of our “We’re An American Band (North American, that is)”theme, we brought you some of the history of David Crosby, Neil Young and Stephen Stills. Today we’ll tell you how those 3 came together in 1969 along with the only artist this month who isn’t from North America. Graham Nash. Crosby and Stills first hooked up in 1968 after the former had been kicked out of The Byrds and the latter found himself without a band due to the demise of Buffalo Springfield. In July of that year, Nash, who has met Crosby in 1966 when the Byrds toured in the UK, was in the US touring with the Hollies. He renewed his acquaintance with the former Byrd and at a party at Joni Mitchell’s house, harmonized for the first time with Crosby and Stills. Soon after, Nash made the decision to leave the Hollies and work with Crosby and Nash. CSN released their first album in May 1969 to rave reviews. In addition, the disc climbed to #6 on the Billboard charts. The band decided to head out on the road in support of the album, but needed additional musicians to play live. Stills first reached out to Steve Winwood but he was busy with Blind Faith. So, he reached back to his days with Buffalo Springfield and brought Neil Young on board. They played their first show on August 17, and a day later, played Woodstock in front of an audience a “half a million strong”. The quartet’s relationship has been rocky since the start, but when they are in harmony, the music they produce ranks among rock’s best. This soundboard ALD recording captures CSNY on April 28, 2002, a dozen years ago today in Tacoma. Please note that the vocals have a bit of an echo, but the performance is so strong I just had to post it
