It is my intent to show my respect to the artist...I do truly believe in buying music...I know that it is easy for us to sit on our laurels and indulge in this vast massness of music here...but, the few dollars that we can spend on supporting our favorite artist are dollars well spent in comparison with the joy their music brings us. I found this old stereo by the side of the road...I guess its owner upgraded their sound system...but, I still cannot imagine kicking my ole stereo to the curb...I decided it deserved a special place here in the YT community for us all to enjoy...The pops, crackles, and cough at the beginning seem to fade quickly into a pretty good CSN vinyl moment.. Another one my favorite Crosby, Stills and Nash classic tunes.. There is a little extra touch in this I discovered...you will here a quick cough from a visitor in the background...;-( but, to this day, I still get a kick out of watching an old record go round and round...I kind of got into to this one...lol.. from wikipedia: CSN is a Crosby, Stills & Nash album released in 1977, the fifth album by the group, and the first without Neil Young since his entry into the band. It peaked at #2 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart; two singles taken from the album, Nash's "Just A Song Before I Go" and Stills' "Fair Game" peaked at #7 and #43 respectively on the Billboard Hot 100. In the interim between their last studio album of original material, Déjà Vu from 1970, and this release, Crosby and Nash had existed as a duo with three albums under their belt, and Stills had pursued various projects, including a short career with an entirely different band and an album and tour with Young. In many ways Young had always been the wild card in the unit, and once the band reconstituted themselves in their original configuration with this record, they returned to their semi-regular partnership as initially imagined in 1969, Young joining in on a sporadic basis. CSN featured strong writing from all three members, the last time for seventeen years that the band would compose songs and handle vocals without major assistance from outside sources. The production of the album fit in well with the ruling aesthetic of the time as featured in other blockbusters such as the Eagles' Hotel California, Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, or Steely Dan's Aja: well-crafted, melodic songs played with precision and balance, in the case of all but Becker and Fagen's work essaying the personal travails of the authors. The last stand of the California "Mellow Mafia", within a few years the commercial ascendancy of these groups, and those like them, would be undermined by the repercussions from punk rock and its influence. Many of Stills' songs on the album echo his marital problems, with "Dark Star" returning to the Latin rhythms he had favored all the way back to his Buffalo Springfield days. Crosby continued the existential probings consistent with much of his past work, and Nash offered a very stringent critique of Christianity with "Cathedral". Many tracks were sweetened with a string section, a first on a CSNY project. The album was released for compact disc on October 25, 1990, and then remastered at Ocean View Digital from the original tapes and reissued on September 20, 1994. Lyrics: Look at those dancers gliding around Seems as is their feet Don't hardly touch the ground Look at them smiling Like they knew one another And they never would come down Turn around and hold me I'd like to see your face alone I'm hoping there's someone home [Instrumental (Acoustic Guitar)] I'd like to meet you Who do you see? Introduce yourself to whichever of me is nearby Close behind your eyes you're laughing at me And I'm stuck with no instructions that I can see To steer by Stick around it's tricky ground I'd like to see your face alone I'm hoping there's someone home [Instrumental (Acoustic Guitar)] Two or three people fading in and out Like a radio station I'm thinking about But I can't hear Who gets breakfast? Who gets the lunch? Who gets to be the boss of this bunch? Who will steer? Turning Turning To see your face alone I'm hoping there's someone home [Instrumental (Acoustic Guitar)] Dream Do you dream Dreaming Do you? Dream Do you dream Dreaming Do you? In my dreams I can see, I can I can see a love That could be ...

Mar 8, 2010 - I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that 1977's _CSN_ represents the best work Crosby, Stills, and Nash have ever done together. Loving-Kindness, Michael

Mar 17, 2011 - He had such a great voice, too bad it wore out a bit. Stephen just sounds mature, no stroke here as always reported. I met him and asked him I know the truth.

Jun 10, 2011 - too funny...I noticed on your profile info you mentioned a group Soul Coughing...I suppose that is what my nephew was doing when he coughed during the recording of this...I always meant to redo this, but just haven't gotten around to it....good ear you have..thanks for listening to another great CSN classic tune..♥
