Only two songs in but not the vocals sound pretty ragged
Didn't notice until now that Stills and Crosby trade lines on Wooden Ships

Oh uh speaking of Stills, here he is, live with the Memphis Horns, L.A. '71:http://bigozine2.com/roio/?p=1888 27 tracks, including those titled labeled "tuning/talk", but they're all set up to be downloaded individually.

damn, Stills sounds fucking wasted when he opens his mouth on "black queen" from the new live box

In the live box afterglow, Nash has been talking about maybe doing an expanded reissue of Deju Vu. Anybody heard boots from those sessions?

RIP
"Dallas couldn't play my shit for crap."--Neil Young, on why Taylor was fired from CSNY
He and Stills must have been tight, since he was back for Manassas, and remember too that like 90% of the instrumentation on the 1st CSN album is Taylor & Stills.
Prior to that, Taylor was in Clear Light with Cliff DeYoung, later of Shock Treatment fame.
― Don A Henley And Get Over It (C. Grisso/McCain), Sunday, 18 January 2015 23:13 (nine years ago) link
oh yeah, Doug Lubahn, who played bass on some Doors tracks, was in Clear Light too. Interesting anecdotes in their Wiki(which also says Dallas was in a band with Lowell George), although it does refer to Danny "Kootch" Kortchmar, of The Section (James Taylor/Carole King/etc/ backing band), as an "ex-Fug," which is---news.
― dow, Sunday, 18 January 2015 23:42 (nine years ago) link
Anybody heard Clear Light? I only knew of their existence via Lubahn mentions in Doors coverage.
― dow, Sunday, 18 January 2015 23:44 (nine years ago) link
I have the Clear Light album on CD. There's some good stuff on it, and some not so good stuff on it. one of their better songs was a non-lp b-side that ended up (along with the band) in The President's Analyst.

kortchmar was a fug for pretty much all their reprise era lps, from memory (most surprising fug member: stefan grossman). i understood taylor got kicked out of csny due to his wanting his compositions included on their albums... need to check out the clear light lp sometime.
― no lime tangier, Monday, 19 January 2015 00:25 (nine years ago) link
Wow! When Taylor, King and The Section got back together a few years ago, celebrating the anniversary of their early epochal tours, Rolling Stone did a big piece, with lots about the Section (incl. getting physically assaulted by Carole's terminally druggie husband, esp. after especially well-received shows: he was crazy jealous of their success, let alone Carole's). Don't think it mentioned DK's work with the Fugs (though may have); did indicate that he was more open-minded than many of his fellow mellow mafiosi. He liked punk and new wave, and I think even made some recordings (albums?) along those lines, or intended to be.
― dow, Monday, 19 January 2015 01:30 (nine years ago) link
(should have edited that, sorry) Didn't Dallas also sue for royalties on Deja Vu, maybe others as well? Claiming that some of his contributions should be considered co-composing, or at least as important components of the arrangements?
― dow, Monday, 19 January 2015 01:45 (nine years ago) link
In one account (the one in Shakey), Greg Reeves (the bass player on Deja Vu) was dismissed because he'd written a song he lobbied the band to record; Young was in favor, but Crosby felt he was just a sideman would overstepped his bounds. Another report (the one in his wiki says Stills fired him because Reeves flipped out on drugs and thought himself to be an Apache witch doctor.

I never thought of this until looking at that 'river' clip but Neil Young and David Byrne share a certain facial resemblance when they sing, although the haircuts obscure it.

Just remembered another weird thing--Taylor, seen below on the back cover of the CSN debut, was photoshopped off said cover when it was given the expanded remaster treatment in the mid-2000's.

I got this box for my dad for Xmas and after he burned it to his computer he gave the physical thing back to me and I listened to the whole thing over the long wknd and man...as much as I love Neil, I cannot hang with CSN.
And speaking of Stills ego-gems: I also rewatched the Neil "American Masters" ep (it is up on YouTube) and Stills is talking about "Ohio" as being "almost as good as "For It What's Worth", Neil basically tried to do the same thing I did...I always thought it needed another verse to be great but what do I know?"

There was a piece on CSN cover photographer Henry Diltz on TV yesterday where he told this story:
On the cover the members are, left to right, Nash, Stills, and Crosby, for no particular reason, the reverse of the order of the album title. The photo was taken by their friend and photographer Henry Diltz before they came up with a name for the group. They found an abandoned house at 815 Palm Avenue, West Hollywood, across from the Santa Palm car wash that they thought would be a perfect fit for their image. A few days later they decided on the name “Crosby, Stills, and Nash”. To prevent confusion, they went back to the house a day or so later to re-shoot the cover in the correct order, but when they got there they found the house had been reduced to a pile of timber.
