CROSBY, STILLS & NASH Crosby, Stills & Nash (Atlantic SD 8229) US 2nd Pressing 1975 MINT!
RARE US second pressing of the eponymously-titled debut album by Crosby, Stills & Nash on Atlantic Records (May 1969). Initially released in the spring of 1969, this is an identical US second pressing from 1975.
As close as it gets to perfection apart from a sealed record, this copy comes from my own collection. The album was bought in the early eighties and played once or twice. The record has been in storage for over 35 years. It is practically perfect.
"The Crosby, Stills & Nash triumvirate shot to immediate superstardom with the release of its self-titled debut LP, a sparkling set immortalizing the group's amazingly close, high harmonies. While elements of the record haven't dated well -- Nash's Eastern-influenced musings on the hit "Marrakesh Express" now seem more than a little silly, while the antiwar sentiments of "Wooden Ships," though well-intentioned, are rather hokey -- the harmonies are absolutely timeless, and the best material remains rock-solid. Stills' gorgeous opener, "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes," in particular, is an epic love song remarkable in its musical and emotional intricacy, Nash's "Pre-Road Downs" is buoyant folk-pop underpinned by light psychedelic textures, and Crosby's "Long Time Gone" remains a potent indictment of the assassination of Robert Kennedy. A definitive document of its era." - Jason Ankeny, allmusic.com
