5. that made my morning. btw did someone unplug Crosby’s guitar or is it just me? around the 2:20 mark he’s strumming the shit out of it and I don’t hear anything

6. Yeah, I was making a point of trying to hear Crosby’s guitar and I couldn’t. That fade out toward the end is heartbreaking.

15. Unbelievable! Neil is the man… Thanks for posting such a killer clip.

    I’ve only been to Big Sur once and it was beautiful, but I didn’t catch a CSNY show poolside while I was there 😉

    Anyone know what source that clip is from? Was it something officially released?
