I've been looking around at Suite: Judy Blue Eyes as of late and came across this dandy. From the sound of it, Stills is in the same D tuning that Neil is using for this lesson. If this doesn't make the hair on the back of your neck rise I don't know what will. Someone once said that Stills is the acoustic "Clapton"..... I'm not about to dissagree.......

Bring on Drip #2....

Mark- I agree completely. Stephen Stills is a hugely underrated guitarist and literally the driving force behind C,S,N & Y. Crosby was the Voice, Nash the glue that held them together and Stills the talent. Young is, well, Young. What can you say?

If anyone doubts that listen to Buffalo Springfield or his time with Manassas. Still some the greatest guitar music ever performed.

I have to agree.
I had the pleasure of seeing CSN&Y in late 1973 in Chicago. We had 5 row center seats, what a treat. Stills and Young just blew me away.
