Crosby & Nash With Neil Young- THE 1972 BROADCAST- CD- 2014- Sonic Boom- 823564646626- 400 grn
Previously unreleased Crosby & Nash performance with guest appearance from Neil Young. By early 1972, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young were enjoying huge success, both as a group with tremendous album sales, and as a touring band in high demand. Individually, each member had recently recorded career-defining solo albums, but had not toured together in well over a year, which heightened the frenzy for any public appearance. In March 26, 1972, David Crosby and Graham Nash, always ready to lend a hand to help a worthy cause, headlined the This Sheriff's Benefit Concert to help raise awareness of prisoner issues. The show also featured local groups Earth Rise and Stoneground, as well as Elvin Bishop. This Sheriff's Benefit Concert, arranged to help raise awareness of prisoner issues, featured local groups Earth Rise and Stoneground opening for Elvin Bishop and headliners, Crosby & Nash, who had recently recorded their first, self-titled, album together. Neil Young was a very welcome surprise guest during the pair's set. He had also been off the road, recording the now legendary Harvest album; the most popular and commercially successful of his entire career. To say the three of them together was a momentous occasion in March of 1972 is not overstating the case, as these guys were at the peak of their popularity. They were international superstars and the press was touting them as everything from ''the new Beatles'' to ''The Second Coming''. This was a particularly prolific era for Graham Nash, who had released some of his most memorable songs over the previous two years. From his excellent Songs For Beginners LP are the politically charged ''Military Madness'' and ''Chicago,'' in addition to ''I Used To Be A King,'' one of his most beautiful songs (which featured backing by Grateful Dead on the album version.) Three of his best songs from the debut Crosby-Nash album are also included; ''Southbound Train,'' ''And So It Goes'' and ''Immigration Man.'' Crosby's acoustic guitar playing and harmony vocals greatly enhance much of Nash's material. In addition to the aforementioned numbers, the pair perform a lovely acoustic rendition of "All Along The Lee Shore" and Crosby debuts ''Page 43.'' As one might expect, the crowd is very appreciative when Neil Young is invited to the stage, and he begins with the title track from Harvest, followed by a lovely version of ''Only Love Can Break Your Heart.'' When he returns later during the evening, he performs one more classic ''The Needle And The Damage Done,'' and then remains for the rest of the killer set. The quality of this performance speaks volumes to all three musicians and the songs speak for themselves. On top that the recording quality is pretty good, so really, if you are a fan of these musicians this shouldn't be a hard decision to make. Buy it!
