A Terrific Homage To Crosby Stills Nash & Young…

If you click Clive’s story above, you will get a terrific look at the music majesty of David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Graham Nash and Neil Young…the “Take It easy” blog always has great music stories like this…

I shared this look at the CSN album “Daylight Again”, which is terrific but there were issues with David Crosby’s ability to contribute…here’s that story:

Clive’s post shares the song “Ohio”, which was written by Neil Young after four students were murdered by National Guardsmen on the campus of Kent State University…this shocking act was during the violent Vietnam War protests – here is the story behind this song:

If you want to see how violent this demonstrations were, here is a movie that actually was filmed during one of the protests:

Legendary Cinematographer and Director Haskell Wexler filmed his fictional story of a news photographer caught up in the Chicago anti-war riots DURING the Chicago anti-war riots! Check it out here:

The entire album is a great example of the strong songwriting and terrific harmonies of Crosby, Stills and Nash…let me know your favorites and thanks again Clive – if you like this please share on social media!
