I absolutely get the sentiment about sharing it with your father. I get my taste in music from my parents. The day my father passed I went to their home directly from the hospital. I was sitting at the dining table, reading the entertainment section and noticed Melanie was going to be performing 45 minutes away the next evening. Suffice to say I was there for over four hours, waiting, listening and then getting her to sign Candles in the Rain, the album I listened with my father growing up. I was able to get her to sign the album “In remembrance of Arthur” with her signature flower alongside it. It’s framed on my wall over 20 years later

[@SharonFrazier-i2m]

Remember back in the day when you might make a mix tape for someone you considered special? My granddaughter just turned 7 a few weeks ago, and she’s really into the Beatles! At her birthday party, a friend of hers who is also into the Beatles, made her 2 CDs with nothing but Beatles songs…one from the earliest years, and one from the later albums. It was adorable!

[@ProfessorofRock]

That's so cool!

[@CharlesSummers-d1v]

Being an official old fart, CSN and CSN&Y were a treat to listen to when they came out. In the late 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, it was simply a wonderful time for REAL MUSIC, being played by REAL MUSICIANS and the concerts were even better to attend. As we’ve watched so many of them age and even pass on, we all really pause and take time to reflect just how good the music was and how great it was to live in the time period to enjoy it. Great interviews and much appreciated. Guitar player in Georgia.

[@brenturquhart7090]

My dad taught me that the best gift you can give someone is a good memory. Memories never go out of style, they’ll always fit, and you can carry as much as you want in your back pocket. This was one of the few things he said to me before he died. He was my idol, and my friend and I miss him greatly, but he was right, whenever I miss him most I pull out a photo album and fill myself with all the amazing moments we had. That lesson especially hit home when I was told my time is almost done. After all the oh my god moments and such, I remember the two best memories from my childhood, a trip to Disney and a trip in an RV to the Maritimes (Canada). So after I got out of the hospital, against the odds my condition subsided, I took my boys on those two same trips. Fourteen years later we still reminisce that trip. Both boys have promised to do the same for their kids one day, as they too felt the same as I did when I was a child. Who knows, maybe it’ll become a family tradition. Lol One of the best memories was us putting together a song list beforehand. We put together eleven CD’s for the trip, and to this day we still play those songs and remember what a great time we had.

Interesting thing about memories... you can't provide others with memories of times you shared past if you weren't mentally present with them in the first place. When we stop being in our own heads, thinking only of ourselves, then we're able to truly connect to events. It's that cognitive and emotional attention in the moment that later becomes the story that can be remembered and shared.

Those voices just blended so perfectly. The whole CSN album is as close to perfect as a recording can be. Stills is underrated as a musician when you consider his youth and what he did on those songs. He really made Crosby’s and Nash’s songs so good that, in my opinion, set a standard that they had a hard time hitting again individually.

For almost 10yrs I have worked as a local stagehand, I have had the privilege of working some great shows for some legendary artists (in my opinion) one of my favorite memories was working Black Sabbath with my son, during load out he was working the dressing room area. While waiting to take the gear to the trucks, Tony and Geezer passed the team in the hall and thanked them for their work and time making the show happen. When they told everyone about it you could see and hear the awe in their voices. I admit I was jealous but happy for them.

I grew up hearing these in the 60s and 70s. Every song is a classic.

[@jean-philippeperetti8463]

Suite: Judy Blue Eyes is among my all-time favorite songs. I can never get tired of it. In fact, I very much appreciate anything that isn't verse-chorus-verse-chorus for only 3 minutes. That's why I'm a huge prog rock fan. This song fits my criteria for a good prog song. Of course, I enjoy the rest of their discography. Their harmonies are out worldly. Few bands were able to mix together folk, rock, and country, so well, besides The Eagles. Contrary to many songs of that era, Suite: Judy Blue Eyes has aged very well. It still sounds fresh in 2024.

[@michaellogan8359]

My favorite fact about "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" is this: Judy Collins's psychotherapist suggested she set limits and establish some control in the relationship, so she told Stills she could see him on Thursdays and Saturdays.

[@PlantainEars]

this is funny. I always thought of him in an asylum where visitation was Thursday and Saturday.... Of course, love and insanity do seem awfully similar.

I saw Stephen Stills with his former love, Judy Collins, in a small venue about 10 years ago. It was a very sweet time and they exchanged some humor from their old days together. Thanks, Prof! You are a treasure bringing up these beautiful songs from the best era of music! Also, appreciate your interviews with these artists and all of the others. xo

Excellent video with these 3 legends. My first concert ever was Stills in SanDiego 7/22/75. We charged the stage for the electric Suite Judy Blue Eyes encore. Graham and Judy Collins will be performing 3 miles from me Sept. 27/28, but I just can't handle 3,000 blokes singing "Our House" instead of Graham. I'm a musician and the off-key singing can destroy the peak of the evening.

One of my all-time favorite bands! Those harmonies, the lyrics and the sounds of that decade! I was born in 71 but discovered CSN intuitively I think because of their incredible harmonies. I had an amazing experience in 1999 on a local Boulder radio station Kbco where you had to donate something to the station to get a chance to win tickets to a live performance and meet CSN. People were calling in and offering a bow flex, weight machine, a used car and a set of high-end golf clubs amongst other things and I thought I have about 40 CDs of this groups music and about 15 albums and I called up and said I am willing to give up all of CSNY’s music in order to be able to meet them . I then left for work and didn’t really think I had a chance of winning but when I got home around 3 PM I listen to my answering machine and it said hey Woody, you need to call the station you have the tickets and the meet and greet please call us ASAP. I was floored!!!! I boogied down to Denver and delivered all of my music and Got my tickets and ended up meeting CSN, which was a highlight of my life. I got them to sign the first album, which I still have and treasured to this day. Unfortunately, there was a mixup with the front row tickets that I was supposed to get and they had me sitting way off behind an amplifier where I couldn’t even see the stage. Luckily, I found a better spot but way far from stage. It was a fantastic concert and a thrill to meet these living legends! But after the show the next day, I complained to the radio station and said hey you guys never gave me the front row seats you promised. So they give me all of my music back, man I felt like I was on top of the world after this show and still being able to keep my music! Wow, what an experience and I still listen to them till this day, God bless CSNY! I’m so grateful for their music.

I really can't agree more Professor, that all the best bands in reality in most cases are those with not only 1 incredible singing voice in the band but 2, 3, 4 + Which is always the best formula in my opinion, whenever possible. Beatles, CSNY, Fleetwood Mac, Queen, Alice in Chains, Mammas & The Pappas, Hall & Oates, Simon & Garfunkel, to even something like Blink 182 to Lincoln PARK. Its always more fun with variety & harmony, i just guess, as long as they know what they're doing I also love Albums so much when we know harmonies & other multiple vocal dynamics are actually performed by multiple singers & not just the singer overdubbed. Both are cool but obviously there's something very special when a variety of great singers & musicians come together. It's just always better....

Adam, even without the interview, your touching tribute to the band, the music, and, of course, your dad, stands alone as a wonderful evocation of the spirit of meaningful music. ❤

[@TomJones-uf5sl]

Your videos are always so interesting! Thank you for all the hard work you have to put into these vids.

[@ProfessorofRock]

Thank you for watching them!

I grew up listening to CSN&Y from my 2 older sisters. Several years ago when they toured all 3 of us went to the concert together. It was an extremely rare event that we were all able to attend together. Now my oldest sister is gone, but I have these memories through this music that will forever bind us.

Do your music friends a favor..share the professor with them. They might not know their love for music can double .

[@ProfessorofRock]

David Crosby just couldn't help being difficult but, man, could he sing.

"Anything you remember about Judy..." DC " Yeah, there's two of them" meaning 2 takes, I assume.

[@vinsgraphics]

That makes sense. Or he was losing it 😂.

[@ProfessorofRock]

Yep.

I’m 35 and Crosby stills and Nash is among my top favorite bands. Even the new stuff like the most recent album from David Crosby before his passing, and the stuff that Graham Nash is doing with artists like Mike Campbell. i’m lucky enough to be on the radio and play this music, speaking of which, congrats on you, soon being on the radio, and getting to play this music.

[@zeemayba2169]

My favorite harmony by them is "Find the cost of freedom"

[@ProfessorofRock]

Great one for sure!

[@RobertJohnson-bj5lk]

That song is incredible.

[@Detroitdogg]

There are times in your life when you are absolutely awe struck by a song and it changes the musical landscape forever. The first time I heard Suite Judy Blue Eyes was one of those moments for me. Honest, heartfelt lyrics sung with Beatles quality harmonies supported by a driving folk-rock acoustic guitar was simply mesmerizing. It changed the course of my own musical journey as both a fan and a musician. It sounds as fresh today as it did in 1969.

[@RobertJohnson-bj5lk]

Alice In Chains also had some amazing harmonies between Layne and Jerry.

[@ProfessorofRock]

Amen!

[@mikenixon2401]

Like your dad, CSN(&Y) was one of my favorites. Some fine interviews. Great job. I am truly happy you still connect with your dad's spirit and you are teaching something positive to your boys. I am always amazed to think back on the serious work involved.
