Stephen Stills Black Queen (Very High Quality)

[@kevinbaldwin7610]

I'm a 73 year old Vietnam veteran. Stephen Stills sang into my ear throughout my entire tour in 1970, and even today Stephen Stills is the only channel I have on Pandora. Stills then, Stills now, and Stills forever. He will be playing at my funeral!

[@stevekelly3138]

Kevin, I love Stills as well, but treat yourself. Add Blackberry Smoke to your play list.

[@robertcronin6603]

Thanks for sharing that - the magical power of music cannot be underestimated - I think Nietzsche said something about life not being worth living without music and he was definitely right

[@jackmalvern2394]

Not just one of the greatest guitar player of all time but also incredibly gifted musician Most of the CS&N first LP is Captain Many hands. Stephen Stills. According to Bobby Whitlock the bass line on Clapton's Let It Rain is Stills. The Buffalo Springfield Box set has Stills solo on piano doing Four Days Gone. It gives me chills.

[@WorldOfRock4U]

I seriously wonder how many people realize … This is one of the most skilled guitarists who ever lived.

[@gypsy4460]

I do I love stephen

[@familiarpurrson8744]

Yes. A guitar god if ever there was one.

[@guitarzan34]

WorldOfRock4U It still amazes me to this day that Neil Young is listed as "lead guitar" on Buffalo Springfield's first album. Jeeeeezzzzz!!! Any guitar player worth his salt KNOWS that Stills was a much more talented guitar player. Young was and is still a fantastic songwriter but as a guitar player he is very unimaginative and a "one trick pony" Gimme Stephen Stills any day !

[@familiarpurrson8744]

I think they did that because either Greene, Stone or someone on the production chain was 'creeped out' by Young's voice, so this 'bone' was thrown to him-I'm trying to recall if he sang lead on any of the songs used in the album. Really, Young, Stills, and Furay all played lead guitar on various tracks, did they not?

[@guitarzan34]

sean johnston Your opinions on ANYTHING are hard to take seriously given the picture of Adolph that accompanies your posting. Very strange choice.

[@mattwalker5129]

I took $5 to the KPFT studio in Houston Texas and asked the DJ to play Black Queen for the Sunday morning blues show. I got into my truck and listened to it as I drove back home. That was in 1973. I'm still listening.

I saw Stephen at Toads Place in New Haven CT in the late seventies. He was there to do a benefit show for a man named Toby Moffet who was running for a seat in Congress. Solo show in a club that sat around 150. Just Stephen and his guitar. To see a legendary guitarist and singer in such an intimate setting was an honor and a privilege.🎸☮️✌️

The album states performance "courtesy of Jose Cuervo Gold Label Tequila". I had never heard of the drink, but a few weeks later, I popped into my post-work off-licence (liquor store to you furriners) and it was festooned with bunting advertising the drink. I purchased my first bottle, and it has been a staple of my life ever since. But i still can't play this like Stills, even sober.

[@ichabodheranow4546]

I haven"t read through all the comments, so I don't know if I am repeating what someone has already said, but Stephen Stills did speak about how he got into guitar. He grew up in a small town in Alabama. There was a black blues singer and guitarist who was amazing. Stephen Stills learned guitar from this man. His guitar shows it in everything, but in this song in particular. He is a brilliant guitarist, and because of how he learned guitar, he has also always been fiercely anti-racist. Stephen Stills is brilliant.

[@wolverina23]

Thanks for this backstory.

[@brandonburnett4442]

U know who else grew up in Alabama and learned blue grass from a black man they call him the Luke the drifter aka hank Williams the best country blues singer to the day

[@joshuadowling8778]

Amen. Yup. Didn't know most of that, but yes. Thanks for the insight.

[@TL-175]

Actually. Stephen Stills was a military brat who was born in Dallas and grew up in Gainesville and Tampa, FL; Covington, LA; Costa Rica and the Panama Canal Zone (see Wikipedia). But he mostly grew up in Covington, LA, patterning this guitar style after a black man there named Charlie Harris ( see kzbin.info/www/bejne/fp7Zn32sbbp0npI at the 0:25 second mark).

[@williamgavalier1960]

​@@TL-175 When he lived in Costa Rica and Panama he really dug the Central American rhythms. Love the One You're With is a prime example.

[@mariathomas5286]

born too late '76, introduced to Stills (and many others), by older brothers, for that i'm eternally grateful, absolute genius.

[@kellyofuller4974]

Hello Maria, How are you doing?

[@Glenechocreek]

Stills was intending to do an electric version of this with Clapton, but they got trashed in the studio, and Clapton went home before he could pass out. Stills sat down and ripped this version off instead. I've still not heard anyone play an acoustic guitar like that. Fucking amazing.

[@kellyofuller4974]

Hello Glenn, How are you doing?

[@KayEl58]

I love Eric Clapton, plenty of things we should thank him for. Going home early that day is one of them.

[@jefferycaldwell6215]

Like “Gypsy Eyes “ by Hendrix who labored with the song with take after take. Stephen Stills channeled Jose Cuervo for a one and done. But songs like those are like lightning in a bottle. Never heard a live version of either!

[@sevprobinson]

I remember when this first came out. Still one of the best damn solo performances of all time.

I think you might be mistaking credit with reknown. Steven could, and still does, rake up the guts of music history and the soul of music appreciation with only a few of his ten fingers.

Hendrix said of Billy Gibbons "...he is the future of rock guitar"; Jimi also jammed with Stills, Windwood, and many other legends before he passed. 90% of what passes for talent today would be like a Bic lighter flickering compared to the brilliance of those artist from the 60's and 70's (some, like Winwood, Gibbons, etc. continued to shine in the 80's, 90's, and the new millenium, their artistic integrity totally intact for their multi-decade careers). "Country musicians" ("rock", etc. too) today trying to be hip-hop artist, ok, you you can rhyme over a drum machine, woopie, try penning your own songs, playing your own instruments (live), singing live unaided by tech. cover-ups: originality, true talent honed by practice and dedication (hard work), what a concept!

Right you are. No one else in 1967 would have the charisma to wear a cowboy hat and boots, with the exception of Doug Sahm, and play Americana on a Gretsch Guitar.He was the best accoustic guitarist of the sixties, because his voice was every bit as raw as his bottom "e" string.

Mt favourite acoustic blues song ever. Courtesy of Jose Cervo apparently. He'd been out on the razz with Clapton and came back home and recorded this masterpiece. A great ad for Martin guitars too. Just beautiful.

[@ichabodheranow4546]

Something a lot of people don't know is that Stephen Stills was raised in a town in Alabama and as a child was a friend of a black blues guitarist in that town who taught him how to play the guitar. This is way he could play such brilliant blues guitar as this song shows.

[@InfamousMedia]

Ichabod Heranow I believe it was Louisiana, but nearly the same thing. Cool bit of history

[@zimzoomit]

He once lived in Nederland, Colorado. His friend, John Clark (who I think took the photographs for a Judy Collins album, and knew CS&N) took me there. I got to see his very beautiful white grand piano. J. Clark took me there, to help me get over a dark time. I performed in Boulder back then, played a lot in Open G, since I was age 16 (learned off the first two Joni Mitchell albums..she learned her open tunings from, I think, Eric Anderson), but when I visited Still's home, Stills wasn't there, he must've been at his home with his French wife, possibly in France. Nederland was not that far from Gold Hill, where John Clark lived.

[@christopherdunn9488]

This is how I play a lot of Still' stuff-but the true Bruce Palmer tuning is DDDDAD. I prefer having the extra 5th instead of 5 root notes. St: Judy Blue Eyes (on the album) is in E-same tuning-you can put a capo on the 2nd fret or tune it to E. In concert, they usually play it in D. C is about as low as you can go.
