Stephen Stills on Celebrating Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young’s Nascent Chemistry With ‘Fillmore East 1969’ Album: ‘There’s a Magic That Can’t Be Duplicated’
Stephen Stills talks about discovering tapes of one of CSNY's first shows, his renewed relationship with Neil Young, and the memory of David Crosby.
Stills also shared his thoughts on the election, doing benefits, letting go of grudges, the loss of David Crosby, whether he is or is not retired, and what he jokes about as a possibly finite public appetite for rock “octogenarians.” (He’s not actually there yet, despite including himself in that, being a mere 79.) In a press release that just came out for this live album, Neil is quoted as saying that when he joined to transform CSN into CSNY, part of the appeal was that he really felt this was a chance to carry on the Buffalo Springfield vibe that he had already had with you in the previous band. I mean, David Crosby was the glue that held those vocals together — he had that taste for those wild notes — but Graham Nash was just as prolific and talented, and we would sing things until we were blue in the face and explore all kinds of possibilities and find the right one.
