Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young play for the first time together in public at the Fillmore East, New York

Neil Young, David Crosby, Graham Nash and Stephen Stills

 

I love the songs "Our House" and "Marrakesh Express".

When Graham Nash formed the group with the other three they nearly signed up on the Apple Label, but were turned down by George Harrison; who thought they would not sell. How wrong he was.

Thoughts:

 

Today I walked through town and didn't take any photos! Well two of a bramble bush, but that doesn't count. The flowers don't thrill me anymore, the most of them are wilting away because of the heat and sun. Have you noticed the farmers are ploughing the fields? That's a sure sign of the approaching autumn, I'm not being pessimistic, it's a feeling I get every year when it's harvest time. If you think further it's really the beginning of the next year, the corn has ripened and the field are being sown; the cycle begins anew.

 

 

Enough for today,

I'll come around again tomorrow. Till then bye, have a nice day!
