Crosby, Stills & Nash - 1992-08-19 - Tulsa, OK (SBD)

This soundboard recording captures CSN in Tulsa on August 19 1992, 32 years ago today.  CSN (and sometimes partner Neil Young, who will get to tomorrow) have numerous connections to all 3 bands we are featuring this month. In 1970, when CSNY went into the studio to record the album Déjà vu,  Graham Nash asked Jerry Garcia to play pedal steel guitar on the now iconic tune, Teach Your Children.  After one take, Nash told Garcia, "Thanks Jerry, you’re done." Despite Garcia's protests, Nash held firm, recalling that "The first one was exactly what I wanted.’ And of course, his pedal steel was one of the defining elements in that recording." In return for Garcia's help, CSN helped the Dead work on their harmonies for their upcoming albums Workingman’s Dead and American Beauty. David Crosby sat in on several occasions with the Dead, including 8/19/1970. 9/10/1972 and 12/31/1972. His most famous appearances with The Dead, however, are from December 1971, when he, Garcia, Phil Lesh and Mickey Hart played a series of rehearsals and shows at The Matrix in San Francisco, billed as David & Dorks. Stephen Stills joined The Dead on stage twice in 1969, on October 25 and December 12, and twice in 1983, on April 16 and 17. Both the Dead and CSN had long associations with Bill Graham, and performed at his memorial concert, as did Neil Young on November 3, 1991.

In addition to the connections with the Dead, CSN have many links to the Allmans and The Band. Both CSN & The Allmans played ta the Crackdown on Crack concert at Madison Square Garden on October 31, 1986. Crosby & Nash sat in with the Allman Brothers at a July 27, 2011 concert at the Beacon Theater to raise funds to fight Hepatitis C. Stepehn Stills recorded a cover of Midnight Rider for his 1973 album Thoroughfare Gap.  Both The Band and CSNY performed at Woodtsock in 1969, as of course, did the Grateful Dead.  In 2014, Nash wrote the tune Back Home, which was a tribute to The Band's Leveon Helm, who was dying of cance.
