  • Música: Folk Rock/Contemporary Pop Rock/Psychedelic Comentário AM: Expanded by almost 40 minutes, the double-CD version of 4 Way Street simply built on the existing foundation of a landmark live album, and for a change, there was no diminishing of the original release. Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young had come out of Woodstock as the hottest new music act on the planet, and followed it up with Deja Vu, recorded across the second half of 1969 and released in March of 1970, supported by a tour in the summer of that year. As it happened, despite some phenomenal music-making, the tour was fraught with personal ... and Young wowed the crowds collectively. The double-CD version adds more acoustic material by each of the participants, which gives a fuller picture of what they were all about musically -- Nash's acoustic rendition of "King Midas in Reverse" doesn't slot in too easily next to the earthier Crosby, Stills & Young originals, but it also adds a welcome British psychedelic pop interlude to the proceedings. The essentials of the original album are all intact, and all in better sound. 4.5 Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - 4 Way Street (Live) [1971] Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - 4 Way Street (Live) [1971]

  • first time since the Civil War, an arm of the US government had systematically employed deadly force against its own citizens. The incident elicited worldwide shock and horror. The most public and enduring response came from Neil Young; the blistering protest song "Ohio" was written and recorded (by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young) within weeks of the shootings. From its opening moments -- a stumbling, snarling electric guitar riff clawed out by Young on his Les Paul -- to the guttural wails of Stephen Stills and David Crosby at the fade-out, "Ohio" finds and sustains its mood of righteous outrage. Rush-released as a single for June, "Ohio" knocked CSNY's own gentle "Teach Your Children" off the pop charts, and became an anti-anthem, a soundtrack for a national mood of fear and loathing. But to whom do the events of Kent State truly belong? Certainly the anti-war Left -- the remnants of the hippie scene -- adopted the memory of Kent as a rallying cause, and "Ohio" as a mourning dirge for an activist movement that was watching its dreams of peaceful social change go down in a hail of bullets. When punk-rock satirists Devo covered "Ohio" years later -- in a version released on the cheekily-titled

He doesn't like his haircut on that tour." Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young haven't toured in seven years. "What do we do after this live album comes out?" asks Nash. "Do we just let it lie there and fucking die, or do we do limited promotion? That's not cowardly, but that's not the way to do it. In my perfect world - and I'm only talking about what I would ... Nash. "But how much fucking time do we have? I'm 71 years old. I just want to let people know what great music we could make because drugs are out of the way now. Stephen and David are totally straight now, and so alive! It would be fantastic. That's what would happen in my perfect world." Nash realizes another CSNY remains a longshot. "I dream and I pull myself towards the dream," he says. "Every moment I was ever onstage with Neil Young I gave him my entire being. We still have the ability to be a great fucking band. We have all been writing so much music lately. We don't have to do 'Our House' until the cows

"It's going to come out August 27th," Graham Nash tells Rolling Stone. "It's going to fuckin' stun people. We only multi-tracked eight or nine shows from the tour, and we've chosen the best from those gigs. We've had to do a little tuning, but not that much . . . But the spirit of the band! If I take myself out the band and look at it, it was a fuckin' great band." David Crosby ... people on this planet," he says with a laugh. "But the legend looms larger! You have to remember that in 1974, the Beatles were over and the Stones were playing a completely different kind of music. When I hear this shit, I think, for a moment we were probably the best band. It's startlingly good." Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young Stage Their 1969 Debut Album in New York They have yet to settle on a title. "I want to call it What Could Possibly Go Wrong?" says Crosby.

  • David Crosby describes forthcoming CSNY live album as "unbelievable"
  • David Crosby has been Tweeting about the forthcoming Crosby Stills Nash & Young live album, describing it as "unbelievable". CSNY have long been rumoured to be working on a live album taken from their 1974 tour. Speaking to Rolling Stone in June 2011, Graham Nash said, "We recorded nine of the 35 stadium shows we did. We have about 42 songs and we're busy mixing them. We have about 12 to 15 mixes under our belt. We're talking to Neil about the resolution he wants everything at. Because of the world Neil is in, he wants it at the highest possible - which is always advisable." Last July, Neil Young fansite, Thrasher's Wheat, reported the set would consist of three CDs and a DVD. Meanwhile, Crosby took to Twitter over the Easter weekend, to post news about what he'd heard from it so far. "Heard one cut off of the CSNY 1974 stuff that Nash and Stanley Johnston and Joel Bernstein are mixing ...unbelievable" he posted on March 31. A little while later, he followed it up with: "It's going to be ....may well be the best live record ,certainly of us ..maybe you ever heard". The CSNY live 1974 album is rumoured for a release in 2013. It will be the first CSNY release since 2008's Déjà Vu Live, recorded on the 2006 Freedom

  • Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - Déjà Vu (from Blender)
  • On release, the first CSNY album sold 2 million copies, but it has aged badly. Young provides the sparse, stunning "Helpless" and a quirky suite called "County Girl" and collaborates with Stills on cute closer "Everybody I Love You." The rest is long on self-important hippie bluster like "Woodstock," about the festival Young later compared to "people standing around a pile of shit, looking at it."

  • For evidence of why Young was so uncommitted to CSNY even at the height of their success, consider this live set, recorded in 1970. There's a spine-tingling solo Young medley and his interesting acoustic take on "Cowgirl in the Sand," but the electric jams are turgid, and the less said about Stills's appalling and pompous "America's Children," the better.
