Deja Vu

Old classic Glad to got reminded of this album today Some very good tunes

Pretty cool

Carry On Teach Your Children Almost Cut My Hair Helpless Woodstock Our House 4 + 20

Some really incredible songs, but there were moments where it felt a little boring.

Deja Vu…I think I’ve heard this before. Harmony is where it’s at by some of the best.

Carry on, deja vu

Great album, so easy to listen to.

Tough one for me to rate. Objectively, this might deserve a 5, but I guess the point of the exercise is to give our opinions. While the vocal harmonizing is nice on some songs but overdone on the album in my opinion. Kind of makes the whole thing sound dated to me. I wish they had given more songs to individual singers. Otherwise, it’s a very enjoyable listen and the talent of these guys really shines through.

It's groovy and folksy. I like it

This is a great album that could fit just about anywhere from the 50s through the 80s in about 4 different genres and be a work of art. There are folk, psychedelic, country, and rock elements at play, but they all meld together wonderfully. I was skeptical about this record, but I'm a definite fan now. Notable Tracks: - Teach Your Children - Almost Cut My Hair - "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" vibes - Woodstock - Our House - Country Girl - awesome harmonica riffs near the end 7.5/10

I actually really liked this

Second half was really good, first half didn't really get me

music for sipping coffee on the porch as the seasons change

I've heard this album multiple times. Classic rock-and-roll album. Like a lot of CSN&Y (especially with the Y) it's a Frankenstein that shifts pretty dramatically depending on the songwriter. The Graham Nash contributions (Teach Your Children, Our House) don't age that well. They are well written songs but seem pretty cheesy 50 years on. Crosby's contributions are just okay. Young's Helpless is great, but Country Girl is forgettable. Carry On (Stills) still soars and the CSNY version is the best of Joni Mitchell's Woodstock. Comes up just short of 5 stars for me.

Enjoyable but rather hit and miss.

Interesting contrasts between the different singers. Impressive when I recognize 6 out of the 10 songs as well-played "hits". The ones that weren't hits were still good. There's a good harmonization, and despite being late 60's this album still feels timeless.

I liked the folky rock vibe

It's pretty remarkable that four guys with such distinctive creative voices were able to function at all, much less as seamlessly as they did in various configurations for much of their career. There's an argument to be made that this album has the best songs Young ("Country Girl"), Nash ("Our House"), Crosby ("Deja Vu") and Joni Mitchell ("Woodstock") ever wrote. Stills is no slouch here either, but he has some pretty incredible songs elsewhere in his oeuvre.

This was a top 10 in high school. Still love it but doesn’t quite hit the same.

know this album well

Good vibes, could see myself listening to this album with my Mom (she probably already has the CD)!

It's interestingly folky. I guess

In a nutshell: existential folk rock. It's a lament of the free life, of hippiedom. Probably the best harmonies you'll hear on an early 1970s album. This should be your first port of call for learning about David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Graham Nash and Neil Young. Start here, then branch out. Overall: 7/10

This is really really good - a rare ‘supergroup’ album where the artists really get each other and bring out the best in each other. Maybe not necessarily any of their strongest records (particularly for Young who has so many classics under his belt) but the songwriting, pacing and harmonies here all just work so well

A really nice album! Very chill, loved the vibes 4 ⭐️

It felt like a very odd inbetween more 60s chill pop and the first beginnings of rock. A pleasant listen!

Very chill and an enjoyable listen

Här blir man bjuden på det mesta. Mjuk akustisk folk, twangig country och elektrical rock music. Kanske lätt blir så pass spretigt när ett band består av fyra artister som alla skriver sina egna låtar. Mina åsikter om låtarna korresponderar därför ganska väl med mina åsikter om respektive genre. Men, alla låtar håller en väldigt hög nivå. Ibland lite slätstruket. Gillar inte stämsången som tyvärr var så populär vid den här tiden. Utan den hade 'Teach Your Children' kunnat vara så mycket bättre. Proggiga 'Almost Cut My Hair' och mystiska 'Déjà Vu' sticker ut mest. Båda pennade av David Crosby, som jag då kanske borde utforska mer. 'Our House' såklart också fantastisk. Neil Youngs 'Country Girl' maffig. Bästa låt: Almost Cut My Hair

- okay wow the start. Guitar in one ear, bass in other, voice in middle - I like the toms and the harmonies - change up was nice -2nd song, I like the tempo and the harmonies, and the guitar - I really like the lead - 3rd song has great melodies and nice sound choice - the chord progressions on each song have been really good - nice fade out - 4th song, the tempo is slow and very relaxing, draws you in - piano is in the left ear - some kind of tremolo guitar in right - 5th song okay picked up the pace - I like the crisp drums, the piano, and the bass - this is my favourite so far - the harmonies too - 6th song, interesting rhythm of drums, okay it’s just changed again - I like the guitar in this - this song has constant change ups and I really like each sound - 7th song, I love this one, I heard it the first time in Blacklist - the harmonies, the piano arpeggio, and the guitar in the background - 8th song, the guitar isolation is really nice - not a lot of layers but doesn’t sound thin - 9th song, that organ is incredible - the big drums in the background - the bass - all the voices harmonise together while singing main melody - final song, very uptempo - the bass is very prominent with a strum - electric guitar Favourites: Woodstock, Deja Vu, Our House, Country Girl

I’m always leery of albums of “musical suites” from bands with multiple but often disparate songwriters. When done well, they can be great (thinking of you, White Album!). The ebbs and flows of mixing different creative snippets together can indeed produce exquisite masterpieces. But just as often it can deteriorate into a mashup of creative ideas that never gel really. It’s that tension that I like when it works; various ideas coming together to create something transcendent and impossible without such collaboration. Unfortunately… just as often there’s less collaboration and more throwing a bunch of separate creative snippets together in a hodgepodge, while the creative members can barely tolerate speaking to each other much less creating inspiring music together. Thankfully, despite ALL the vitriol and infighting going on amongst CSN&Y during the 800+ hours (WTF?! 😱) of recorded material for this album, often with bandmates recording separately because they pretty much hated each other at this point, we get a masterpiece from them. For me, the album started off OK with “Carry On”, but it hits its stride regarding sequencing from “Helpless through to “Our House”. There’s so much to love, from the songwriting, the harmonies (the harmonies! 🥰), to the musicianship. Actually, I think I prefer their cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock” to her original, which is saying something. So why not a “perfect” five? Well, while I appreciate the end of the album, especially Neil’s “Country Girl/Whiskey Boot Hill”, it loses a little steam for me. Just a little 😜. I do think I prefer this album over their previous, by just a touch

There's some explosive elements of creativity that these guys tapped into which make these songs uniquely powerful. For a team of 4 to be so lit up and capable of synchronicity like these songs show is above typical human abilities. I'd give 5 stars but only 4 because the charge doesn't fully hit in every song

great album! funny listening to our house now that i know it was written about joni mitchell

Some of the greatest harmonies ever put on record

A classic but a little softer than what I typically want to listen to

Album #1 Was expecting this to be more acoustic but there was a lot of electric guitar. Was a bit more accessible for me than other folk type stuff I’ve tried to listen to before but generally very well written songs and good musically too. Good first album to get as it wasn’t too long and very easy to enjoy.

Liked this a surprising amount

I actually like this, even though not my favorite genre or era. There's tones of blues, country, and classic 70's rock (which, if we're honest is just blues and country mixed with weed and hippie hair).

OUR HOUSE, IS A VERY VERY VERY FINE HOUSE🗣️🗣️🗣️

Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young hit just right every now and then. This was every now and then.

Solid folk rock, some proto jam stuff going on. All in a tight sub 40 minute package. Ideal.

Naming the “band” after each individual member belies how well these guys harmonize. Very few, if any, did it better.

Going with 4*, but I don't see myself going back to listen to it, oddly. Still, undeniably good stuff.

Unexpectedly and surprisingly enjoyable.

This is a grower not a show'er. Love the guitar and harmony work on Carry on. Good tunes - Carry on, almost cut my hair, helpless, deju vu, our house, 4+20, country girl and everybody i love you. This is a good listen. I wouldnt class it up there with my greatest of all time but its a really good album. I think a 4.5 would be ideal. This has been better than most 4's ive given.

For a CSNY album, this is banger after banger. Terrible cover, though. Sheesh. Unless it's modeled after a famous photo, in which case - well done!

You can feel the hippie dream curdling into self-indulgence in real time on this patchouli-powered behemoth. It's still a fine time capsule. 'Carry On' is right up there, the harmonies ate sensational; 'Helpless' points towards After the Goldrush; 'Almost Cut My Hair' to this day sounds cracking. On the downside, of all the versions of 'Woodstock' I've heard, this rather peppy version might be the worst. And, whilst 'Our House' is strong in melody, the sentiment verges on slushy. Also, "two cats in the yard" feels like a slightly peculiar lyric, for some reason. Nonetheless, I liked this very much.

I found Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young's *Deja Vu* to be more enjoyable than I expected. While most songs landed around a middle-of-the-road 3 rating for me, there were a few standout tracks that I would rate a 4 or 4.5.

A bit mellow but there are some classics on there

This one was a pretty good magic trick... "Guys, your first record was wildly successful and featured the most incrdible vocal harmonies of the whole hippy era. What are you going to do next? We are going to add Neil Young's voice to the mix, and not even thay is going to be enough to screw this formula up." ...and it wasnt, the harmonies were still good and Young upgraded some of the songwriting.

Nice one.

Wow! This dog is cute. While listening I was looking for a word to describe this album and heard "cosy". I'll go with it, it's cosy. I don't want to sing along or dance to it, I just want to listen The average commentator for it is ~70yo, if you're interested. I feel old for not hating it

Solid album with some good songs. Not a huge fan, but definitely worth listening.

I enjoyed this album so much. There is something in the melodies - it is a mix of joy, relaxation, and emotion. I love the instruments used. It was a good time!

Chill 70’s vibes

Pretty great album for sure. Strong combinations of folk, rock, blues, and even a bit of psychedelic music too. Instrumentation was lively and the vocal chemistry between each member was extremely strong too with several strong harmonies. Not sure if I’m really rushing back to the album as a whole at this point in time though. There’s not really a flaw I could name but idk it’s just not resonating a to with me atm. Time will tell on that front. Still great though.

Very laid back album of great backing music, and not so great singing.

That was okay...

The vocal harmonies are first rate, there’s a fantastic blend of borderline country, blues and acoustic psychedelia that really hit the right notes for me. The vocal harmonies are first rate, there’s a fantastic blend of borderline country, blues and acoustic psychedelia that really hit the right notes for me. Worth listening to again and again.

Old garage band music from back in the day when rock and roll was still fresh. The soul and R &B covers were certainly not as good as the originals (don’t try to one up Little Richard), but it was pretty enjoyable.

This was a pleasant surprise. Solid tunes here

Pretty tight. Would have got a five if it had had Ohio like I thought it did. I like stills guitar work, and neils, the harmonies are crystalline, and a pretty common observation but neils are the best songs. Like the garcia pedal steel on teach your children. Dig the CSN songs too but to a lesser degree. very much products of their time, while neil manages to make even Kent state timeless around the same time frame.

Tää on aika selkee peruspilari folkin ja folkkirokin osalta. Solid! 4/5

Varsin hyvää hippifolkia.

Has some lovely classic tracks. A great sunny day album

On est en 1970. Les sixties sont officiellement terminées, la gueule de bois post-Woodstock commence à bien taper sur les tempes et le "Peace and Love" se fait de plus en plus discret face à la guerre du Vietnam qui n'en finit pas. C'est dans ce contexte un peu vaseux que débarque le deuxième album de la clique Crosby, Stills & Nash, augmentée pour l'occasion d'un quatrième larron, et pas des moindres : le Canadien grimaçant, Neil Young. Le concept même de "supergroupe" a de quoi faire frémir. C'est souvent la pire fausse bonne idée de l'histoire du rock. Tu prends des mecs qui sont déjà des demi-dieux dans leurs formations respectives, tu les fous dans la même pièce et tu attends que la magie opère. En général, ce qui opère, c'est surtout un concours de celui qui aura la plus grosse et une bouillie musicale où personne ne veut laisser un peu de place à l'autre. Et pourtant... Cet album est un miracle accouché dans la douleur, la drogue et les larmes. Pour le mettre en boîte, il aura fallu, selon la légende, plus de 800 heures de studio. Huit. Cents. Heures. De quoi enregistrer toute la discographie de Guided By Voices, faces B comprises. Il faut imaginer le tableau : David Crosby est en plein deuil, sa copine venant de se tuer en voiture, et il noie son chagrin dans des quantités industrielles d'héroïne. Les autres ne sont pas en reste, la coke et l'alcool animent joyeusement les sessions, les engueulades fusent, et Neil Young, fidèle à sa réputation d'électron libre, n'est là que la moitié du temps. Au milieu de ce merdier, le pauvre Graham Nash joue les Casques Bleus de l'ONU, essayant de maintenir une cohésion qui n'existe déjà plus. Ce contexte, c'est la clé pour comprendre l'album. "Déjà Vu" n'est pas l'oeuvre d'un groupe soudé. C'est une compilation de luxe, une playlist de quatre génies qui se tolèrent à peine mais qui, chacun dans son coin, est au sommet de son art. C'est ce qui fait à la fois sa force et sa faiblesse. La force, c'est l'incroyable diversité et la qualité hallucinante des compositions. Chaque membre tire le drap à soi, et on a le droit à tout : Graham Nash nous livre des ballades pop parfaites, solaires et imparables comme "Our House" ou l'hymne au barbecue "Teach Your Children", avec son pedal-steel qui te donne envie de mâcher un brin de paille en regardant le soleil se coucher sur le Grand Canyon, même si t'habites à dans un trou paumé à l'autre bout de la planète. Stephen Stills, le rockeur de la bande, ouvre le bal avec le monumental "Carry On", une suite en plusieurs mouvements qui est une démonstration de force, un morceau épique qui justifie à lui seul le concept de supergroupe. David Crosby, le hippie tourmenté, nous offre des titres plus sombres, plus paranoïaques, comme "Almost Cut My Hair", véritable cri du coeur d'une génération qui sent le vent tourner, ou le sublime et vaporeux ""Déjà Vu"". Et puis il y a Neil Young. Le Loner ne fait pas du CSN, il fait du Neil Young. "Helpless" est une complainte magnifique, fragile, avec cette voix nasillarde qui te transperce l'âme, une chanson qui semble flotter au-dessus du reste de l'album, comme si son auteur était déjà ailleurs. Le jeu est d'une précision chirurgicale, les harmonies vocales sont à tomber par terre, ça suinte le talent par tous les pores. Chaque note est à sa place, chaque arrangement est pensé, poli, magnifié. On sent les 800 heures de labeur. C'est luxuriant, c'est riche, c'est le son de Laurel Canyon porté à son paroxysme. Un son qui a défini le rock californien pour la décennie à venir. Alors pourquoi seulement 4/5 ? Parce que justement, ce n'est pas un groupe. C'est une collection de chefs-d'oeuvre individuels. L'album manque de liant, de cette alchimie unique qui fait qu'un tout est supérieur à la somme de ses parties. On passe du coq à l'âne, de la ballade la plus tendre au rock le plus brut, sans véritable transition. C'est un glorieux bordel, un patchwork magnifique mais qui trahit les fissures béantes au sein du quatuor. On écoute quatre albums solo condensés en un seul. C'est ce qui l'empêche, à mon humble avis, de s'asseoir à la table des plus grands monolithes de l'histoire. Mais qu'on ne s'y trompe pas. "Déjà Vu" est un album essentiel. Un disque qui capture l'instant précis où le rêve hippie s'est cogné au mur de la réalité. C'est un disque de transition, schizophrène, qui porte en lui à la fois l'insouciance des sixties finissantes et l'amertume des seventies naissantes. Un album qu'il faut écouter et réécouter, pour en saisir toutes les nuances, toutes les tensions, toute la beauté chaotique. Il a beau être le fruit d'egos en collision, le résultat est d'une splendeur qui force le respect. Un gros 4/5, donc. Pour les chansons immortelles, pour les harmonies divines et pour le simple fait d'avoir réussi à transformer une poudrière en disque de platine.

Standouts: Teach Your Children, Woodstock, Our House, 4 + 20, Country Girl Lyrics/Vocals: 4/5 (I don't like Neil Young's voice) Instrumental: 4/5- Very relaxed folk Vibes: 4/5- A chill album with lyrics that echo the late 60s-early 70s Overall: 4/5

This was a short but good album, cozy, good feelings, until they hit me with the song 4+20, that made me go back and listen to it again, after that some of the songs had a feeling of melancholy. liked all the songs, would listen to it again.

Really good album. Some fantastic songs.

So good

7/10

What a closer for the 60’s! With sounds reminiscent of the likes of the Beatles, Rolling Stones, and even some Jimi Hendrix, this album works wonders at taking the best of the decade and adding its own creative touch. The rock elements aren’t too hard on the ear and the folk brings a simple yet elegant feel that permeates through the record. Songs like Woodstock and Our House will have you bobbing your head while Helpless and Country girl give a very introspective touch. Also, it can’t go without mentioning the beautiful harmonies on many of these tracks. No matter the person behind it, each song has terrific harmonies that accompany its tune. There is such a nostalgic feeling here that brings me from classic rock tunes to solemn, acoustic melodies. The title track does not hit super hard for me and the lyrics can be quite sappy or cliche at times, but this is definitely an album I’d return to.

Nice album with great musicians.

Another of those albums that is supposed to be important, but I couldn't get into it. Varied too much. Country Girl is particularly egregious. Second listen at Johnny's behest: -Carry On - pretty good -Teach your Children - classic, one of the best on the album -Almost Cut My Hair - I can see this growing on me -Helpless - I can go either way on Young - his vocals were both delicate and beseeching on this one -Woodstock - not bad, good guitar throughout -Deja Vu - just when I thought it wasn't going anywhere, it ended. I feel like this is a song that I don't like now, but it could grow to be a favorite. -Our House - listening to the lyrics, I now love the song -4+20 - not much going on -Country Girl - what is this mess??! (Maybe this could grow on me? It came together at the end with the harmonica) -Everybody I Love You - awful and indulgent So: verdict is changed, due to Johnny's praises!

Really enjoyed this.

Classic easy listening!

Had some good ones, teach your children, our house, maybe other gems if I listen more

The transition between the 60’s and 70’s distilled into 36 minutes of well-crafted music. Clear to see why this was so massive at the time, drawing on anti-establishment sentiment and political dissatisfaction at a time when the old was starting to fragment and a new beginning was being formed. Will listen to again. Didn’t realise this was the source of ‘our house’ - whodathunkit.

A classic. Gotta give them their credit. Vocally top notch and songwriting on this is great. Not my first go to sound wise but some songs I can see myself going back to

Lovely and inspired. Young's compositions especially stand out, but Nash's "Teach Your Children" has always been dearest to me. The Laurel-Canyon-folk songs hold up better than the rock-forward ones. Highlights: Teach Your Children, Helpless, Woodstock, Our House, 4 + 20

very good, liked it a lot.

Fucking solid album!! Teach Your Children, Helpless, Woodstock.... So many good songs! I love what Neil Young brought to Crosby, Stills & Nash. That distinct guitar work and that voice.... Phenomenal! Favourite songs: Woodstock, Helpless, Teach Your Children, Almost Cut My Hair, Everybody I Love You Least favourite songs: Deja Vu 4/5

-FUCK YEA ELECTRIC GUITAR IN EARLY 70S FOLK ROCK -The vocal harmonies and stuff are really cool, and it has a bit more of an energetic feel to it while also having some nice slow songs -Favorites are Carry On, Woodstock, and 4 + 20

7/10 Yeah, warm nostalgia and some very good music. 6-20-2024

Great album. I like the Neil Young songs the best

Dudes all so good you gotta name em all right?

Core formative music memories here.

This was good background music. I enjoy a good supergroup. I think what I like most is there’s a different sound/singer in every song, so it never feels stale or repetitive.

it was nice !

Amazing how good Neil sounds when not taking lead vocal. I enjoy the harmonies on the album. Some real classics on this one.

It sounded like your Grandpa’s music that he had on a record player. It was simple and was catchy throughout

Quite enjoyed this album. Loved the harmonies and the musical skills displayed. The guitar sounded great loved the little electric riffs in a lot of the songs. I also liked how the acoustic was used thought it was great not just the stereotypical use of it as a rhythm instrument.

Really good on first listen, definitely coming back to this one

4+ Melkein mestariteos, mutta muutama keskinkertainen raita joukossa.

This is nice! 4/5

Classic sound

I liked this better than the individual albums by various members we've heard so far. I think the collaboration makes for a more varied album that isn't quite as one note.

A lovely taste of the 70s. Wonderful harmonies and great instrumental. 9/10 Would I listen again? Absolutely

Entspannte Musik aus den 70er 4/5

I was initially underwhelmed when I got unduly excited by the opening track which the rest of the album never quite matched or even came close to. Listened casually a couple of times thereafter and one final closer inspection and found myself in love with it. Carry On + Teach Your Children + Helpless (Look Down From The Bridge by Mazzy Star much??) + Woodstock + Our House (though the chorus and the la-la-las are a bit too childish even for that song) are all good-to-great-to-fantanstic. Tapers off just a bit in the second half but even there most of the songs are growing on me.

Enjoyed the two listens. These four together are a powerhouse. Woodstock was my favorite song, but I want to give the album more listens at a later date. 4/5!

Solid. More psychedelic than I thought.

Very good. Heard before - great harmonies.

Sorry guys, I am a zoomer. This is how I imagine peak folk to sound.

It's been decades since I've listened to this album in full. It was fundamental in my appreciation of folk and still holds weight for my today.

four lead singers on songs is special

A good easy listening album

these guys are always a good listen. i know teach your children from somewhere but i can’t place where and it will bother me for the next couple days

Fractured with some silly lyrics in places, but I've always enjoyed this one and it was good to revisit. Until today, I'm not sure I've ever paid much attention to the latter portion of the album which turns out to be pretty rewarding. Also, Jerry Garcia played some beautiful lap steel. This group should really have been named: Crosby, Stills, Nash, Mitchell, Garcia, & a lot of Young.

I feel like I made in error in attempting to honestly review these albums. I mean - what are you supposed to say about Deja Vu? Yeah. It’s pretty good.

Carry on is mind blowing.

Love, love, love the harmonies. Not every song is fantastic, but this is my kind of hippie dippy bologna. 4/5

This is kind of a strange album, in that it sounds like three or four separate albums mashed together. There’s a little bit for everyone: the classic harmonies of CSN, the counterculture anthems of “Cut My Hair” and “Woodstock”, the incisive songwriting from Neil Young, even a cameo by Jerry Garcia on the steel guitar. I personally love the harmonies of Graham Nash in songs like “Teach Your Children” and “Our House”. “Country Girl” and “Carry On” were pleasant surprises as well. Very enjoyable album overall.

Ordinarily I probably would give this a lower rating, but I listened to it in the most perfect setting, and it enhanced the experience by so much. I listened to the majority of this album while on the train, and having this album as the soundtrack to the city turn into suburbs turn into fields turn into forest was magical. I have found my new favourite commuting album.

This is one of those albums which is so familiar that it's easy to become rather blasé about it's qualities, and whilst it does contain a couple of clunkers, the highlights do outweigh weaker numbers like 'Our House' and closing track, 'Everybody I love you'. The album starts with the storming ''Carry on', which apparently was almost an afterthought. Hard to believe that, apart from Dallas Taylor on drums, Stephen Stills is responsible for all of the instrumentation! Other highlights include a pair of Neil Young classics, 'Helpless' and 'Country girl' and Still's beautifully picked '4&20'. David Crosby contributes the excellent 'Almost cut my hair', though I prefer both the extended version with the false star and the beautiful acoustic demo version, both of which can be found on various boxsets. His title track is another highlight, though his trade-mark scat singing is not to everyone's taste. As for Graham Nash, hi 'Teach your children is nice, with some lovely pedal steel guitar, courtesy of Jerry Garcia. In my opinion, however, the band's version of Joni Mitchell's 'Woodstock' is disappointing and not a patch on the original. Nevertheless, a great album which is well worth seeking out.

Dang, these 4 men are all over this list. But I can’t complain! This was a wonderful listen and I appreciate the different sounds each member brings to the group.

- the return of the law firm band names .. - our house <3

I feel that this album represents rock transitioning from blues and folk. I didn't enjoy it much but it could be worth another listen

Excellent jaunt back to my childhood. It was nice to hear these songs again after all these years.

Really solid album. Lots of creative music styles from the era and great vocal harmonies. Can't believe I've never listened to this before.

Very pleasant, if a little bloodless. Neil Young is probably the most interesting (occasional) member of csn&y, and his songs on this album stood out a mile. All in all, I really liked it, but didn't quite love it.

I kind of wanted to hate this, given how overrepresented these guys are in this book, but after two listens, it's undeniably great. The only criticisms I have is that it doesn't really have a cohesive feel to it, and some of the songs are a little cold (or too perfect) sounding. The former makes total sense, given there were 4 brilliant songwriters competing for space, and apparently not getting on very well with eachother. I do prefer this album over their first though - the addition of Neil Young is a significant one. There's some lovely guitar playing on here, and a few truly great songs, especially Helpless, Woodstock, and Our House. I actually had no idea that the latter was CSNY, so that was a nice surprise. Really enjoyed 4+20 and Country Girl too. I don't think their version of Woodstock is better than the original, but really enjoyed their take on it. Don't like the last song at all, and found Teach Your Children a bit bland. Overall, this album feels like CSNY trying to put a cap on the hippie era and move on in 4 different directions. 8/10

Great album overall. Beautiful melodies m, harmonies, and lyrics

Potentially over rating this album slightly based on experience since my dad was a big fan. They never had the fanfare of Pink Floyd or other tops groups but were doing a lot of similar things.

This is one of the few CSNY albums that I have a copy of, it's really great. Lots of great folk-rock/pop-rock/country style music throughout this album. Interesting instrumental decisions and great lyrics. Songs like 'Teach Your Children,' 'Woodstock,' and 'Our House' are classics. 4/5.

Pretty good album. Never understood the addition of Neil young to the group but it was cool. A little weird the way the album ends on kind of an abrupt song.

Good rock and roll.

Really enjoyed this, lyrically and musically.

Superb, Our House is a classic

Great album. Great vibe. Love this era

Our house, is a very very fine house

Really loved this. Listened whilst walking the dog. Some brilliant singles, but more, just a beautiful album.

3.5/5 - Some nice songs

Definitely a true classic album by one of the great vocal groups. Notable songs abound including "Woodstock", "Teach Your Children", "Our House" and "Helpless". It was nice to hear this album start to finish...

Superb easygoing listening..

muy lindo y tmb para dedicar unita jsjjsjs

Highest selling album for all 4 - that's really impressive considering Young's catalog. And understandable - it's a great set of songs that hit the music culture at the perfect time, introducing a unique new sound totally unlike the Beatles et. al.

Great album, 3.5 stars rounded up to 4.

Thoughts before listening: One of the original 70s supergroups with C, S, N, and Y all having spent time in popular 60s rock bands as well as releasing their own solo music. CSNY mixes these guys' rock chops with more singer songwriter folk songs all sung with some of the best vocal harmonies of all time. I own this album and know it will be an enjoyable listen. Review: Yeah this is good stuff. When Neil Young joined up with C, S, and N he added his ragged guitar style to their folky harmonies to great results. The first CSN album has some great tracks, but also gets diluted a bit with some folkiness that comes off as too sickly sweet for its own good. Neil Young helps to keep this album on track with all 10 songs being strong. My favorites on this album are "Carry On", "Almost Cut My Hair", "Helpless", "Woodstock", and "Our House". 4-stars.

A Micaella daily mix classic

Really enjoyed this

Slightly disappointed in this, thought I might have a fiver on my hands, given what I’ve listened to from Neil Young in particular. But there was just something lacking to give it top marks. Still a lovely album though, and Our House is a banger! Simpsons: Yes

Only song I knew already was Almost Cut My Hair. Rest of the album was really good, could listen to it more. Would need more listens for the top score. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This one was super enjoyable, very easy listening and I like their voices. Makes me wanna lay on the beach at sunset with my lover

felt very standard for an album on this list, was pretty good but not super duper exciting or anything. 7.5/10

I could listen to this all day long! Nice melodies and feels very grounded. 8.5/10

A stone cold classic. I'm very familiar with all of the top tracks from this one, and none of the deep cuts really broke though. That's ultimately not a bad thing, as about half of the album is already in our collective psyche. It's great.

Agradable.

Quality! Funny to catch NY's Harvest and then two albums later catch this. Love the grooves on this one, especially that lead cut.

Easy listening and very enjoyable.

I very much enjoyed this album! Teach Your Children was my favorite song.

An absolute delight. Certainly a bonus to have it pop up on a Sunday!

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's Déjà Vu isn't just a landmark album, it's a snapshot of a cultural moment. Here, we delve into the masterpiece, exploring its intricate lyrics, electrifying music, and the creative tension that birthed it. Lyrics: Poetry with a Folk Heart Déjà Vu's lyrical tapestry is rich and diverse. Stephen Stills' contributions like "Carry On" and "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" are introspective, grappling with love's complexities. Neil Young's "Ohio" delivers a powerful indictment of the Kent State shootings, showcasing his blunt, poetic style. David Crosby's "Woodstock" captures the fading idealism of the counterculture movement. Graham Nash's "Teach Your Children" offers a hopeful plea for social change. The lyrics are rarely overtly political, but a sense of disillusionment with the Vietnam War and social unrest permeates the album. Lines like "We are stardust, we are golden, and we are billion year old carbon" ("Carry On") capture the yearning for meaning amidst chaos. Music: Folk, Rock, and Harmony in Perfect Balance Musically, Déjà Vu is a masterful blend of folk and rock. Stills' soaring electric guitars intertwine with Crosby, Nash, and Young's acoustic sensibilities. Tracks like "Teach Your Children" and "Carry On" showcase their unparalleled vocal harmonies, a cornerstone of the CSNY sound. The use of session musicians like drummer Dallas Taylor adds a rock & roll backbone, evident on tracks like "Wooden Ships." "Almost Cut My Hair" boasts a driving rhythm and Neil Young's trademark harmonica, a sound that became synonymous with the era. Production: Capturing the Moment Produced by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young alongside Bill Szymczyk, Déjà Vu is stripped-down and raw. The focus remains on the songwriting and vocals. While not sonically adventurous, the production perfectly complements the emotional intensity of the music. Themes: A Counterculture Crossroads Déjà Vu pulsates with themes of love, loss, societal disillusionment, and a yearning for change. The title track itself explores a sense of cyclical experience, reflecting the Vietnam War's repetitive brutality and the fading optimism of the counterculture. Songs like "Teach Your Children" and "Ohio" are calls for social change, while others like "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" delve into the complexities of personal relationships. The album captures a generation grappling with a changing world. Influence: A Legacy of Harmony and Social Commentary Déjà Vu remains a cornerstone of folk-rock. Its influence can be heard in artists like Tom Petty, Fleet Foxes, and Mumford & Sons. The album's focus on vocal harmonies and introspective lyrics continues to inspire generations of musicians. Furthermore, Déjà Vu's social commentary on war and social issues resonates today. Songs like "Ohio" remain powerful reminders of the fight for justice. Pros and Cons: A Timeless Masterpiece with Flaws Déjà Vu isn't flawless. Some argue that Side Two lacks the overall strength of Side One. Also, the internal friction between the band members, well-documented, can be felt in the occasional lack of cohesiveness. However, the album's strengths far outweigh its weaknesses. The lyrical depth, musical brilliance, and iconic harmonies elevate Déjà Vu to a timeless classic. It's a testament to the power of collaboration, even in the face of creative tension. Conclusion Déjà Vu is not just an album; it's a cultural touchstone. It captures the hopes and anxieties of a generation, wrapped in unforgettable music. Its legacy rests on the perfect blend of folk and rock, powerful songwriting, and the unparalleled vocal harmonies of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. Despite minor flaws, Déjà Vu remains a masterpiece, a testament to the enduring power of music.

i saw the memories i never had in the dreams i wanted to live. no difference between the distance between me and them, and between heaven and hell. or purgatory, at least. i saw the most demented thoughts buried just beneath the surface, and, as the rain pitter pattered over the grass, the thunder glanced above it, sure that it will never strike. my heart still stopped that day. i saw the least repented outlaws and their violent crimes in the pictures i painted inside my head, their eyes rotten and their will unjust. i didnt want to stay, yet here i am. i saw the inmortal remains of my mothers orbiting around my brain. i extended my arms upwards, like antennas to the sky, but their voices never reached so far. i saw the daughter i wanted to be, but my voice didnt reach so far.

Ég var svo leiður við að hlusta á þessa plötu. Ekki af því að hún var slæm heldur af því að höfundaréttur kom í veg fyrir að ég gæti hlustað á alla plötuna. Ég fékk bara að hlusta á 7 lög. Ef ég hefði fengið að hlusta á allt hefði ég gefið henni 5 stjörnur en hún fær smá skammir fyrir höfundaréttarleiðindi

I just want to preface this review by saying I was conceived before a Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young concert, so I think I’m pretty qualified to speak on this album. This is one of those supergroup bands that I don’t think you can really deny the excellence of. This is a total powerhouse of incredibly talented musicians that were as good as it got in their time. I had a moment when listening to Helpless, where I heard the singer’s voice, and thought, “Why does this sound so familiar to me?” And then I realize the Young is short for Neil Young, and everything made sense. This album not only boosted the careers of everyone in the band, but also stands as the best selling album across all of their careers. And for good reason. Because this is a classic. A revolutionary album of its genre. And a collective effort from some of the strongest songwriters of the 20th century. I don’t know if I have ever heard vocal harmonies on a level like this, except for maybe the obvious pick with The Beatles. Basically take any great traditional Neil Young album, and throw like 4 other members on top of it. This is just consistently a super warm and refreshing set of country folk songs. If you are at all a fan of this era of country music, or really just Neil Young, listen to this. Rating: 8/10

Obviously a great collection of classic songs in this album. Finally got to match the songs, I've heard on the radio many years ago, and their title. A couple songs kinda dragged a bit. Ha! What do I know?

The harmonies are excellent. Really good album. However, the songwriting on a good part of this album just wasn't for me. It's a good album still, but not what it could be.

favourite: carry on, woodstock, deja vu, country girl least favourite: 4 + 20 sucks that half the album isn't on spotify, they're some of the best tracks this album is great mayb 8/10

All time classic and only 21 minutes long.

Lekkah

Some great classics here that are still some favorites of mine - Carry On, Teach Your Children Well, Our House. I think there were some songs missing from the Spotify version as it only had 6 songs. Almost Cut My Hair had some great guitar and overall good sound. Deja Vu was my least favorite. 4+20 was ok. Overall a 4.

Folk-rock setentero. Un pelín por encima del 3...

Of course I've heard quite a few of these songs a million times, but have never actually paid attention to them. They've been part of the background radiation of life since before I was born, and this was my parents' music, so I didn't really have or want a relationship with it. Now that I'm deliberately listening to it, it's clear to understand why these songs were so important to so many people. There's a real sense of something greater than the sum of its parts happening here...some of these songs have a quality that feels somehow knowing and eternal. Somehow I still struggle with Neil Young, though. I just flat-out don't like his voice. To me, his more solo moments are by far the least interesting, most annoying parts of the album. I also really love the guitar-centered nature of these songs. I miss music that's made by guitars that aren't being piped through layer after layer of modern processing. The wall of voices thing starts to feel kind of cloying by the end of the album to me, but it's all executed really well. I'll probably return to some of this album in the future.

Agradable.

Amazing rhythms & feels

A great quarter life crisis album.

Classic. 4

There are some very strong classics on this album. I didn't even realize "Our House" was on here, until I listened through it. The variety of the folk voices among the four songwriters is very impressive, and the songs are pretty much as strong as they could be for that time and style of music.

Carry On is a fantastic song out of the gate. Love the vocal harmonization and the mixing of the rhythm guitar into the left channel with electric in the right. And the abrupt little psych-infused breakdown complete with keys in the middle. Almost Cut My Hair plays like a Neil Young song; mainly because of the unmistakable guitar tone. Soulful jam it is. Woodstock is the song I know this album for predominantly -- another Young led guitar jam. Back half of the album pales in comparison to the first. No doubt CSNY > CSN, but for me this is a soft 4.

This was an awesome listen while grocery shopping. I’ve never really listened to these guys thinking psychedelia but I heard a bunch in this. Extremely pleasant with their harmonies as well I don’t think there’s anyone better maybe save Lennon/McCartney. Can’t wait to give this one a listen again. High af 4

Despite the album title and release date over 50 years ago, we haven’t heard this one before. Different band members writing and taking lead gives the album a variety sounds and songs. Eight of the ten songs are well known classics making it seem like a greatest hits collection. Teach Your Children and Almost Cut My Hair are the stars, but all the songs are good and the album flow is smooth. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience! (3.6*s)

I'm definitely way more of a Y guy than CSN, but other than the immortal "Helpless", Young's contributions here aren't all that strong. Nash's numbers are some of the pleasantly gentle tunes ever put down, Croz puts on his cape and Stills is, eh, whatever. In the end, the Joni cover carries the day.

Great album, great band. Which they would have stayed together longer. Great sound from the 70’s.

I enjoy this record! To me, this is a transitory record. Its taking that folk acoustic country roots and mixing it with psych rock and blues. However, I feel like they never quite get it there with the rock songs. Even when they're really going for it on songs like Woodstock and Country Girl. They're really good, and I think they inspired other artists to do it better. The album is strongest for me, on songs like Our House , Teach Your Children and Helpless. Which are obviously the most famous ones, but they're the most grounded and polished. I really do love this band and this record, but its not my favorite from the era.

This album feels like a warm, familiar embrace. It's a classic through and through, instantly recognizable as a product of its era yet possessing a timeless appeal. The music is undeniably engaging, drawing you in with its rhythms and heartfelt melodies. Every track exudes a joy and vitality that represents the best of its time. Sure, there might be more technically impressive or groundbreaking albums out there, but few match the sheer, unadulterated enjoyment this one still provides.

Not a fine house, but a fine album. 4.

A great record with some great hits. I didn't get as many listens as I would have liked but this has some really excellent musicianship and is recorded really well.

Incredible album, a couple of well known tracks but it's far too short.

Classique. Almost Cut My Hair feels different now bald..

Listened on spotify, missed the young heavy ones sadly. but overall great!

I quite liked it, easy to listen to and very pleasant to the ear. I'm a folk rock listener, so it wasn't a tedious or boring listen. I would hear it back and specifically when I'm doing things, as a great way to pass the time.

Liked the overall vibe. Could listen to it again for sure.

Agradable.

Some all time classics, including Helpless and Woodstock. Side 1 is epic, Side 2 good but not quite up to the same standard.

Refreshing, chill.

I enjoyed this album a alot. Good classic folky songs. Teach your children is always a bop

Very welcome album. Classic sound, but there are a few songs I could live without

What a classic album. All of the songs have their merit and unique sound.

I have always wanted to sit down and listen to CSNY. These guys are legendary. This is a really freaking great album

Carry On // Almost Cut My Hair // Our House // 3.5/5

This is a great album, I knew all of these songs and didn't realize they were all on the same one. Every track is listenable with Our House being the weakest (however, still good as it shows their range and works on this set). Neil's voice is so good with the rest of the band, I of course like them better when he was involved. Very solid 3.5.

This is a great one. Every song is listenable and showcases the band members as individuals and the range of the band as a whole. Def a supergroup of its time. Spun it on a rainy Saturday...perfect. Love the faux leather album gatefold too.

Really strong album from start to finish. Each band member brings their own style to the table and all 4 of them work. Relatively short and sweet with no filler in between. This album deserves a lot of respect it is given. 4 stars

A solid 4. Don’t like the cheesy singles (Our House & Teach Your Children). The rest of it is great. ‘Almost Cut My Hair’ is the stand out track - that bluesy rock that’s right up my street with a superb guitar solo. Love it 🤘🏻

I really enjoyed the blend of different sounds within tracks here, not just between them. There's a variety of instrumentation, and rhythms and melodies often change without tipping their hand. The rotating lead vocal approach also pairs nicely with the differences in track timbre, catering to the lead's strengths each time. Nearly every track has an intriguing tale behind it. Listened to: at home, on vinyl. Favorite tracks: Almost Cut My Hair, Teach Your Children

Those hippies could jam. Timeless classic right here. Side note, only half of the album is available on Spotify. How does that even happen?

I like the quartet style. Wish it was longer.

Cool album, unfortunately not every song is available on Spotify

Need some more attentive listening of this again. Harmonies, song evolutions are wild. I'll listen more for lyrics. Favorite on first listen was the joni mitchell woodstock cover. always liked our house, helpless. Almost cut my hair and 4+20 were favorite new discoveries.

I prefer the first album without Young but this is pretty fantastic too.

Chill vibes with some smooth guitar. An enjoyable listen with fun hippy vibes.

Joe Walsh, the crown prince of rock and roll, joined the Eagles after they scored number 1 albums and released a greatest hits album. Dennis Rodman, a hated rival for the Detroit Pistons, somehow worked a deal to land with Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls. What fascinates me about both of these transactions is that both the Eagles and Bulls had scored the ultimate heights before making these moves, both of which were somewhat head scratching at the time. In a way, both moves would be like Hilary Clinton suddenly deciding to work for Trump's campaign. And Crosby, Stills and Nash started this whole trend of adding a wild card to the mix and therefore upping the ante. You could argue that CSN didn't need Neil Young - or that Old Neil didn't need them. Yet somehow it worked even better. There's no Suite: Judy Blue Eyes here, but you get Carry On, Neil's brilliant Helpless, Our House and Crosby's hippie lament Almost Cut My Hair. And they got too big for Neil's taste. He'd join them sporadically over the following years (re: Whenever Neil felt like it) in between classic solo albums. Neil was always better without these West Coast elitists. But CSN was never as good without him.

I am a big fan of folk type music and this gives me a country, folk, rock vibe so overall I dig it. It also so reflective and in a weird way nostalgic. I dug it

Wow, I enjoyed that far more than I anticipated. I didn't realize all those classics were from one album; the harmonizing is terrific.

I'll admit I am not as familiar with this as I should be, but it is one of those classic albums of it's era that holds up very well today. In my opinion it was always clear Neil Young was the star and he proved it when he went out on his own. The others to have some real gems in their discography, but Young has the most consistent ones. Either way, this is great 60s rock. 8.3/10

Very cool

Much of the album not available on Spotify, but the tracks on there were good.

Overall this isn't so much my vibe. The musicality is great. I love the different songwriters and voices & how they blend into such rich harmonies. Normally this would be a 3 for me but this band is sooooo groovy they get extra groovy points to push it up to a 4. Woodstock is probably my favorite song on this album. Let your freak flag fly!

Love the flower child era vibes. Teach Your Children is a true classic. This record really takes you back in time to life during the Vietnam War, and the profound impact it had on society.

I only recognized our house but the whole album felt very familiar

Awesome album. New songs I hadnt heard, other songs I had forgotten about- all bangers. Woodstock has been in my head all weekend.

Not my favorite CSN album but solid

This isn't available in its entirety on Spotify. Fortunately, I was able to find it through other means. Excellent. Oddly enough, the songs Neil Young sang are my least favorite.

Great album!

Lots of songs on here that I know, but didn’t realize they were by this band. I like the harmonies, worth revisiting to sing along with especially in the summer with the windows rolled down.

Whoa, the guitar and bass chops on this record. Also, the overall vibe is some rock and roll hippie shit that I'm very much here for.

хороший. наконец-то нашла оригинал аур хаус И нашла у кого Дилан списал нокин он хевенз дор (никто не догадался чувак)

Love it

Oh gosh I grew up listening to this album. It’s beautiful.

A parte del tema que da título al disco, destacan los dos únicos temas en los que el grupo funciona como tal: "Carry On" y "Woodstock". El álbum, canto del cisne del grupo que apenas aguantó su grabación unido, es sin embargo de una solidez auténtica. Folk Rock de nivel.

A very nice album I like some of the songs I had not heard before like Almost Cut My Hair and Everybody I love you. Some of the bigger hits I know are important I guess but I I also find them a bit irritating.

Just a very comforting album. I do love me some Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.

A classic!

This is in my collection from my wife Alison who had a couple of copies!

Call cohesive album with all the players contributing at least one song that has a distinct feel

Sounds like Eagles to me. Very relaxing & feel good music!

Group vocals and harmonies are high caliber, mostly soothing but sometimes a little too much. Sometimes I just want to hear a single vocalist own a melody by himself. But the guitar work and songwriting is stellar. Great music for headphones (layers) and also just for vibes and background jamming while working or picking up around the house. A good example of a transitional record from the psychedelia of the 60s and into the guitar rock of the 70s. A great mix of various styles. Highlights: Country Girl, Woodstock, Our House, Teach Your Children

🙂

A mí parecer marca el fin de una época y comienzo de una nueva era rock

Groovy! Enjoyed the album but still found myself gravitating towards old classics like Helpless and Our House. I really liked “4 + 20” though, which was new for me!

Carry On - I know this song, never knew the name Helpless - how have I never heard this?

Reminded me of being a teenager

One of my favorite albums

Excellent!

Fine. Overall pretty good but it didn’t blow my mind, but I think that’s because it’s so influencial so it’s not, like, NEW to my ears but it was new to the world, if that makes sense. I enjoyed it and love Neil Young, duh. “Country Girl” is the stand out track, for sure.

Great album.

Always super chill

I know this is some California hippy shit, but the harmonies are glorious.

Wow, short! Very good. I liked it.

One of the best follow-up albums ever.

When Graham Nash, Manchester’s finest, left The Hollies it would have been a far stretch to think he would end up in Laurel Canyon in a band with Neil Young harmonising on the gorgeous Helpless - so gorgeous, in fact, you could forgive it for, structurally and melodically, being an entire copy of Bob Dylan’s Knocking on Heaven’s Door. It became one of Young’s most well known song whilst Our House , for the remainder, ended up featuring on mortgage commercials the world over. This album is almost the definition of Woodstock, the summer of live and the interaction of artists at the time. Famous for their melodies, CS&N remained faithful to this style after Young returned to being solo. It’s a good job Stephen Stills failed that audion for The Monkeys eh?

Known Before: Standouts: 4. Helpless 7.5

This album smells like heroin and b.o. It’s beautiful.

Buen album, me gusto mucho su ambiente y las guitarras que tiene, tiene un sonido muy blusesco. A destacar "Almost Cut My Hair"

Very good songwriting and the vocal harmonies are fabulous. Sounds old, but also like a classic.

I'm a big fan of Neil Young's work but till this day don't know too much about this great supergroup and their individual talents. I do like their debut a lot more but the first album with Young is still a great listen. 'Helpless' is an ageless classic that even my aunt and uncle danced as young lovers in the GDR too.

Here we have CSNY at the height of their collective powers. The vocal harmonies are unrivaled, but remain highly influential across genres, and the style changes from straight on folk music to jam band really work well. Neil Young remains my favorite component of this band, and his absence is heard when CSN would go on without him. Not that either of them needed each other to be successful. I'm just more partial to his input. The songs missing from Spotify on this record were his, and they're the best tracks here.

Poignant songwriting powered by haunting harmonies and just the right amount of six-string muscularity to accentuate the quiet coziness.

Goood

If I could I would give it a 4.5. Great album.

Surprised that I liked this as much as I did.

Hippie rock or psychadelic rock or fast-folk rock. Enjoyable but doesn't get as catchy as I would like.

Damn, good

Solid. Few radio hits. Get a flavor of each, for better or worse. 4.

CSNY eru ekki top tier hjá mér, en ég kann að meta þá engu að síður. Þetta er gott stöff.

Classic

Carry On - I like the upbeat rhythm and some lyrical parts but I don't like the instrumental choice, some more rhythmic changes I enjoy but I think it would work better with a more potent singer and guitarist Teach Your Children - I kinda like the older country feel to it, I do enjoy the lyrics as much as Carry On although the old country feel does fit this song lyrically rhythmically I don't like it buy overall better then Carry On Almost Cut My Hair - Electric guitar comes on strong it has more of a 70's feel to it kinda has a bit of CCR and Hendrix in there so far so good, Lyrically not my favorite but not bad, I like the more 70's rhythm to it though Deja Vu - nice rhythm feel to it enjoy the kinda seems to be like an early Queen in the way the lyrics are spoken quickly and quietly slowly ramping louder and slower Our House - a well known song to me I like the lyrics and rhythm overall best song of the album so far 4 + 20 - last listenable song on spotify so far enjoying it not better then Our House but it's probably a close second or third

Erg goed album natuurlijk, maar voor mij net niet genoeg voor 5 sterren. Maar met 4 mag je er natuurlijk ook best wezen.

Liked the album. More laid back then I thought it was

Gray album, like it a little better than their first.

Sounds very sweet, like it much more that expected at the beginning of the album

Essential Tracks: Our House (Playlist) Helpless 4 + 20

Best thing David Crosby ever did was get sacked by the Byrds. Great harmonies all the way through this. Shame it's only half on Spotify

Never heard this album before as a whole though I know a few songs already. Love it

Listened Before? N Allll right, man! What a cool hippie time capsule this is. I wish all the songs were available on Spotify but I get Neil Young's gripe. I may have to pick this one up on vinyl for the collection. High quality stuff. Added to Library? N Songs added to playlist: Almost Cut My Hair, Woodstock

Ik zou het een 3,5 geven maar maak er een 4 van omdat ik 'Cut my hair' zo'n episch nummer vind.

A classic album full of earthy, melodic, well-written songs. Maybe a little too broad stylistically, but still a highly enjoyable listen. Fave Songs: Our House, Helpless, Carry On, Woodstock, Teach Your Children, Déjà Vu

Fantastic harmonies, unfortunately some songs aren’t available on Spotify

I didn't listen to the tracks missing from Spotify, but what I did hear was great. Really beautiful album.

Buy this record

Solid album. I know most of the songs, but I wouldn't consider it a "must own". I certainly appreciate it though.

Some great songs, some a bit less great, overall very enjoyable

Really enjoyed what I could listen to of this, but not all the songs are on Spotify so can’t rate it higher but v much enjoyed the vibes

Top tier 60s rock. CSNY has never been a favorite of mine, but you’ve gotta give it to them on this one.

Glad I was able to learn about this album. Lovely singing and strings.

Pretty ok, will probably listen to it again

Real nice guitar work. The track almost cut my hair's vibe rly stands out

Was a nice change of pace from the usual stuff I listen to, and the lyrics were quite nice. Feels like a unique piece of 70’s US history

Cool vibe, very different from what I'm use to but it brings a different perspective, not sure if it falls under the Country genre.

Very nice! Would listen again :)

Certified classic. Stephen Stills killing it on the bass. Couldn't listen to half of the album because of Spotify though.

Overall I like this album. First group I'm somewhat familiar with. Best one so far on this thing.

Really enjoyed this. Harpsichord sounds nice. Our house is a banger. Wish that half of the album wasn't unavailable on Spotify.

Really good, hadn't heard much before. Can see why it's a classic. Good textures, great variety. Liked the title track a lot

Great collection of songs

Pretty solid, but can't listen to the whole album on free Spotify.

Very good. For a folk rock album its guitars can get pretty scorching at times.

Another one I could have sworn I had on vinyl. A classic to be sure, though some of the lighter moments are bit too saccharine for my taste

Some classic tracks on here. Overall a strong album that I was already vaguely familiar with. Not a fan of Neil Young's whiny voice though.

This is a great album! Its unfortunate that many of the songs aren't available on spotify (likely Neil Young's songs). Which is too bad, Woodstock is definitely one of the best songs on the album. I was able to find them on YouTube though.

Powerful stuff!

super nostalgic, old southern soft rock, i am actually obsessed and it is going in my travel playlist. there is just something so insanely comforting about this entire album. theres also very specific images it makes me see but theyre so vivid you can feel them like as another life but i cant describe them

Nice

Cosmic

Love this album, I own the leather bound version, it was my parents growing up, I was always intrigued by it. I played "Teach Your Children" at my Dad's funeral, brought the house down. Helpless and 4+20 are my favorite songs on the album. And of course "Our House" is one of the sweetest folk songs ever written.

clássico

Really good! Young just makes CSN better! 4/5

This album was great!! A very early rock album that was ahead of its time and sounds clean. David Crosby’s guitar playing on the most part is brilliant and I love some of the melodies created such as the opening track “Carry On” and third track “Almost Cut My Hair.” Because I use Spotify, I had to listen to some live cuts for songs such as Woodstock that maybe weren’t as good as the original but this is still a great folk-rock album that I will be definitely be revisiting and makes me want to listen to more Crosby, Stills & Nash. RATING: 8.4/10

Our house, is a very very very fine house

Waar Cat Stevens het in zijn eentje moest doen, ondersteunen de heren Crosby Stills Nash en Young elkaar en dat is fijn om naar te luisteren. Mooie harmonieën, de ene keer rockt het meer dan de andere keer, wat een prima afwisseling geeft tussen de nummers.
