Crosby Stills & Nash
David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash met at Joni Mitchell's
house in Laurel Canyon, California in 1968 after a Hollies concert. After
singing together that same evening, they traveled to London to write songs
and rehearse. Soon they started recording their first album.
The musical partnership of the three members of the group (and later with
Neil Young) led to one of the most successful acts of the late 60s, 70s,
and early 80s. With the colorful, contrasting nature of their characters
and their connection to the political and cultural upheavals of the time
(the 'Woodstock Generation'), CSN&Y was the only American-based band
to approach the overall societal impact of the Beatles.
The participants of the group had all been quite successful when it came
together in1968: Crosby had been a member of the Byrds, Nash was in the
Hollies, and Stills bad been part of Buffalo Springfield. The resulting
trio, however, sounded like none of its predecessors and was characterized
by a unique vocal blend and a musical approach that ranged from acoustic
folk to melodic pop to hard rock. CSN's debut album, released in 1969,
was perfectly in tune with the times, and the group was an instant hit.
By the time of their first tour (which included the Woodstock festival),
Neil Young had joined the group. The first CSN&Y album, "Deja-vu,"
was a much more 'electric' album than the first CSN record. The album
was a chart-topping hit in 1970, but the group split acrimoniously after
a summer tour. A series of number one hits followed.
In 1977, Crosby, Stills and Nash re-formed without Young for the album
"CSN," another giant hit, which was followed by "Daylight
Again" in 1982. By then, Crosby was in the throes of drug addiction
and increasing legal problems. He later cleaned up and returned to action,
reuniting with CN&Y for their second studio album, "American
Dream," in 1988.
Without Young, CSN followed with "Live It Up" in 1990. Though
the album was a commercial disappointment, the trio remains a popular
live act. They embarked on a 25th anniversary tour in the summer of 1994
(toured Europe) and released a new album, "After the Storm.' CSN&Y's
most recent effort, "Looking Forward," was released in October
1999, followed in 2000 by their CSNY2K tour.
