Title:   “Crosby, Stills & Nash”

Label:   ATLANTIC  ~  # SD 8229.  Stereo pressing on medium weight vinyl.  Label is green & red with black text. 

Year:   1969.

Condition: 

DISC:  Vinyl is NEAR MINT with 100% of original gloss, as clean as can be found.  Appears to have been played one or two times at most, and handled with care.  Labels are clean.  Fidelity is superb.  A gorgeous disc you will never need to upgrade.

JACKET:   Non-laminated gatefold jacket is EXCELLENT with nice bright artwork.   Outer panels have rare hype sticker on the front, and song list sticker on the reverse.  Inner and outer panels are clean and bright, with no signs of ring wear.  Would grade NEAR MINT, but bottom seam has approx 2” split at the center;  remainder of seams, spine, and panels are excellent.  Inside gatefold is clean and pristine.  Overall a very fine jacket.  

Glossy folded insert with lyrics is included in top condition.

Review:

“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.”
