Crosby, Stills & Nash - Wooden Ships - Houston, Texas, 1977

[@yrtnook]

Oh how very wrong David Crosby is in this intro. How unfortunately relevant this song is to this day!

[@IeuroI]

all the truth. it is literally the 1960's all over again. bernie will be speaking tomorrow in my city, #feelthebern

He said very little of people's work would last, this song is def one of them.

America !

[@Maclaren415]

Now at 69 yrs. old the tears well in my eyes while listening. First heard about them in 69 in the movie Woodstock. Now in 2021 March...I watch them in different years...77 was when everyone was coming out of the 60's CSN was not to be trifled with as another group that would burn out...they were and still are a gift to us all.

[@jonsnow1123]

Oh my man. I'm also in my sixties. Reading your entry brought ME to tears! For some reason, I can't quite place it, when I listen to this song, it makes me think of Robert Heinlein's, "Stranger in a Strange land." It also conjures images for me if the American Civil War. "Hey, can I have some of your purple berries? Yes, I've been eating them, six, or seven weeks now, probably keep us both alive..." I envision two soldiers walking home, from different sides, and this exchange...

[@angelamorgan3399]

Oh my God…thank you for your comments. I, too, remember the first feeling felt to this song… how blissfully innocent we all were then…I do believe that this can still be our anthem out of this dystopia into a real, self-generated euphoria that is our birthright! Yes…

[@catmom1322]

The first time I heard this beautiful song was on the Woodstock album, sitting on the floor, smoking, & enjoying the hell out of this. They explained the whole scenario, which made it special.

[@wescheslak9408]

This is what it’s all about. In my mid 50’s. Absolutely love this and the memories it brings. Great tune, great musicians.

[@oldbeatpete]

our generation is moaning the loss of that beautiful feeling at the time, that humans would wise up. Now look at them 2016...!

RIP David. Thanks for the soundtrack of our lives and our wooden ships.

RIP. We lost a legend. I'm grateful that my parents still are huge CSNY fans and shared your music with me as a kid. Your melodies and lyrics remain hugely influential. This music will live on forever.

[@SuperMcabral]

David is gone but our generation's music will go on. All generations love it. This is my favorite CSN song of all time!

In regards to David's comments at the start, almost 60 years and counting and your music maters more than ever. 100 years from now today's music will be forgotten but yours will still be a important and relevant as the day you first recorded it

[@bananafish58]

Oh, David! I believe you'll be surprised, as you gave down from the stars, just how long your music will be remembered. Thankful to have had you amazing voice and social conscience for so long. RIP. 💖

I saw them at the fabulous forum in LA as a sophomore in high school in 77'.. The greatest Show My 16-year-old eyes have ever seen..

[@markkennedy4854]

Definitely one of the greatest bands of all time. I was born in 1956 and am so grateful to have grown up in the 60's & 70's. The greatest generation of music 🎶 Just so many great bands 👍🏻

[@JakeDevore-h6v]

If that isnt cool I dont know what would be. I was here for the 70s but came of age in the late 80s,/90s. I saw nearly all the luminaries of that era...and it was great to feel like I was part of somthing unique to that time. To my time. Its amazing how quickly our present turns into history. Eulogies and remember whens. Anyway thanks for sharing. Happy Holidays.

[@vickytaylor9604]

I saw CSN many years ago and Stephen Stills just blew me away at that concert...still does to this very day !

[@spikerd808]

I always miss an old surfing friend named Dan when I hear this song.. I pray he's alive and well. Richard

[@anthonyparro425]

The soundtrack of my life in the early 70 s. A friend heard God coming through the speakers listening to CSN&Y one afternoon and was on the street early the next morning giving away all his money; he then disappeared to South America for the next ten years

[@davidmurray2539]

That anecdote is far more interesting than this group.

RIP Mr. Crosby. Thank you for all the joy and reflection over the years.

I want a Firebird like Steven Stills' Designed by Raymond H. Dietrich (1894-1980) was, without question, one of the great automobile designers of the classic era and what a wonderful combination. The colours used were car colours, except for the sunburst models of course.

[@lisabolo26]

AMAZING!! What a terrible loss. All the greats from that era almost gone. I already don't recognize this country as the one I grew up in. Sad to say, I cannot think of one f'in thing that has changed for the better in the last few decades. Despite all that was happening around us, we were HAPPY in the 1970s. Now, so much internal strife abounds. Sad, very sad, indeed.

[@SuperMcabral]

It's survived over 50 years and I plan on living forever in Paradise. So you'll be singing this song you wrote to us! Stephen Stills agreed with me when I wrote it was my favorite CSN song.

[@alainpaum]

Wooden ship is a masterpiece ! Such a fantastic song especially with CSN !

[@anthonycantu8879]

This song, to me, fits so well, about an encounter of two civil war soldiers, each from the opposite side. They ran away from the madness, found each other in the wilderness somewhere, and decided to live in peace until the war blew over. I wonder who wanted to know who won. Johnny Reb, or the blue coat. In my mind, since I was young, that was the scenario that had cemented itself in my mind, regardless of what the song was actually about. The harmony is just incredible.

[@garyhastings9815]

great today as was then thank you for all the years of great music, with NY in mind as well

Quite nice video/audio quality (from 1977!). Professionally filmed & well edited. The performance shows why Stephen Stills is a highly underrated guitar player (he's a fantasic bass player, too, by the way). Hey, even David Crosby wakes up a bit & plays a lick or two (love the harmonics at the end). I think this tour was mainly to promote their "CSN" album. It looked like a good one.
