Thank You ..Ziggy
CSN&Y was never my favorite group, although I did like Deja Vu when it came out. My first impression from the first album was that it was very professionally recorded, with tight harmonies and excellent playing, but it sounded to me like a hippie version of bubblegum music, except for the Crosby songs. I realize that was a rather superficial dismissal, and Deja Vu, with addition of Neil Young, quickly changed my opinion. Still, I never warmed up to them after that, and was rather bored with the in-fighting. This concert shows much of what I imagine people liked about the group, and despite not having played together for a long time at that point, they do seem to play and sing together well. The songs come from various albums, with Suite: Judy Blue Eyes getting an extended treatment. The audience responds well to the performance, especially in the last song (Teach Your Children). Crosby seems more prominent in this concert than he was on the recordings, and his lead singing is surprising at times, such as on I Almost Cut My Hair, which I still think is a rather silly, dated song (freak flag fly indeed!). Stills seems to be losing his voice a little, but his guitar playing is right on target. Neil Young is allowed the most solo songs, and he comes across well, as he usually does. Nash, except for the singing, doesn't seem to have as strong a role here as he did on the albums. All in all, an interesting concert which should satisfy the fans of the group. Thanks.
