changes four lucky matter three worth
We have been through our changes as individuals and as bands. Sometimes it's been really rough, and sometimes it's been really wonderful, but it's always been worth it. And no matter what we've been going through, the three of us, or the four of us, or any of us individually, we still feel that we've been lucky that we're able to be making music.
british-musician self stills
I think Stills has been playing better than ever. I know a lot of it sounds self-serving, but he truly has.
fantastic people secondary staying toward worked
We've kind of tended toward staying in the - what's called the secondary markets, where you know, where people don't necessarily go, and it's worked out fantastic because the people have been very appreciative, you know, and they've been going wild, you've been there to some of the shows, its been fantastic.
burden figured finished house knew learn mixing record russell year
We just about finished mixing the record at my house in Hawaii, Crosby was there and Russell and Nathaniel, and when we figured out that we would be going out with CSN this year and that we had all this new music. I knew that it would be a burden for Stephen to try and learn 20 new songs, because they - they're not easy.
brought people
People like us probably didn't have any real answers. But at least we brought up the questions.
along band couple hall james musically obvious past people personally rock roll taylor understand
That was one of the things that James Taylor said about us when he inducted us into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame; that this was a real working band. It's very obvious when people come down to see the show tonight, they'll understand that this band has been getting along better personally and musically for the past couple of years and we're flying.
anybody best decided fell freedom knew names ourselves
We knew that if we called ourselves by our real names, we'd have the freedom to play with anybody we wanted to and still have recognition... we decided that was the best way the names fell off the tongue... Crosby, Stills, Nash-that's the best combination, we thought it rhythmically made sense.
british-musician good incredibly music people possible
We want to get this good music to as many people as possible because I think it heals, it soothes, I think music is incredibly important, especially in today's chaos.
adds became certain effect immediate inclusion incredible neil
Neil's effect on the band was immediate and very fulfilling. He adds a certain edge to the sound and, of course, he is an incredible musician. We became a better band because of the inclusion of Neil Young.
excited forward future looking music present
We are excited about the music, past and present and future, and are really looking forward to playing.
british-musician cut fast lucky money worked
We only had enough money really to cut 10 things and be in there for a month because it's expensive, you know. And, singer/songwriters, today are lucky if they can get a deal, you know. So, we actually worked so fast that we really cut 20 things.
extremely hard involved music people received record worked
I worked very hard on me and David's record and I'm extremely proud of the record, as most people are who were involved with it. And, it's been wonderfully received by people who like our kind of music, they think it's something special, and so do I.
brought ended fly incredibly land minutes tried
I brought my lamps from the house, you know, so - we tried to make it as comfortable as possible. So, we ended up in an incredibly comfortable place. Crosby was very comfortable because he could just fly on down, you know, he'd land in Burbank and he'd take - you know, it was 10 minutes from the airport.
acoustic electric fully people sets within
We were one of the very first people way back in '69 to do fully acoustic and electric sets within the same show.
