write common sense, i mean
lmao @ the followup to that from nash:
"Stephen walked out of the room and said to me, 'Bob's no musician.' In the back of my mind, I also remember Stephen buying a Precision bass for Paul McCartney and telling him it was time to start playing a 'real' instrument and not his old Höfner."

RIP Drummond, but yeah man what a career.
Love that Stills-Dylan story, I have this image in my mind of Drummond just slowly closing his eyes and rubbing his temple while muttering "Shut up Stills, christ"
Also, I would complete watch a Stills negging vers of Quantum Leap...him all going back in time to "pep" talk Mick Jagger while wearing a Jets jersey

DON: Like everybody else, we first noticed Stephen Stills in Buffalo Springfield and their political hit "For What It's Worth". From there of course there was all the CSNY classics and solo work that showed that meaningful lyrics and great harmonies weren't exclusive to the Beach Boys.
GLENN: We hung out some on their '74 tour. I played Stills some stuff we'd been working on for One of These Nights, to which he replied that "Maybe one of these nights you'll right something worth a shit!" That hurt me. It hurt me in the heart.
DON: Well, yeah. (sobs)

I had no idea Stills played on Bill Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine". This is possibly the only piece of music he plays on that I enjoy.

Well, he also played on Joni's Blue and FTR, and on a few Isley Bros recordings (they also covered "Love the One You're With").

Stephen Stills: As bad as things got, I don't even think it was the craziest tour I ever did. I had some overly lubricated solo tours later on, and then Manassas… For a few years of my solo career the bourbon king showed up and it was just messy. I don't run from it. I own it. It left my voice shot. It's cool now because I've gotten it back. I'm hitting the high notes again. The present for me is fine.

Tarfumes - yeah the story goes that Jimi and Stills were hanging out and Jimi stopped by the studio and cut a solo for "Love The One You're With" and after he left the studio Stills decided he needed more percussion overdubs so he erased Herndrix's solo, then he died shortly after
― Wu-Tang Clannad (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 13 January 2015 14:59 (nine years ago) link
Well that's just about the greatest thing I've ever heard.
― kornrulez6969, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 15:33 (nine years ago) link
Not that Jimi dies obviously, but erasing his solo for more bongos. That ranks up there with firing Mick Jones from The Clash for idiotic rock decisions.
― kornrulez6969, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 15:34 (nine years ago) link
Did Hendrix play on that track too? I thought it was just "Old Times, Good Times" (real good; ditto "Think I'll Go Back Home," with Clapton solos).
― dow, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 15:38 (nine years ago) link
xppost, dunno when he bragged about getting his voice back, but he sounds pretty ragged on the Springfield reunion tapes I have, and apparently he was the one who called a halt to the tour, citing medical advice.
― dow, Tuesday, 13 January 2015 15:41 (nine years ago) link
iirc, Stills thought Hendrix' "Star-Spangled Banner" would've been better if Jimi had played the whole thing on bongos.

On Austin360.com, Joe Gross follows up:
Neil Young — noted musician, director and Canadian — is doing a Q&A following tomorrow’s 5 p.m. screening of his 1982 movie “Human Highway (Director’s Cut)” at the Paramount. He will be joined by actress Charlotte Stewart.
The screening is open to Film Badge, Gold Badge, Platinum Badge and Film Festival Wristband. If any seats remain, single-admission tickets will be sold for $10 cash starting 15 minutes before showtime.
“Human Highway” is Young’s little-known and even littler-seen sci-fi comedy starring Dean Stockwell, Dennis Hopper, Russ Tamblyn and Devo.
So, yeah, you know what to do.

Fashion ad? Like a tv ad, or a print ad?
He's pretty much the last "classic rock" holdout in terms of licensing songs for use in ads.
