Crosby, Stills & Nash

三位民谣强人组成的团体，Crosby, Stills & Nash，这是他们的第一张专辑。专辑中有两首进入Top 40的歌曲， "Marrakesh Express" 和 "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes"。这张专辑在1969年取得了Billboard排行榜第6的佳绩，实属不易。在那个各种吉他噪音不绝于耳的年头，三位坚持民谣路线的理想主义者用自己的音乐为民谣争取到了大众视线中的一席之地，卖出400多万张。就连吉他大神Jimi Hendrix都对他们这张专辑赞叹不已。 这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第259位。 by Jason Ankeny The Crosby, Stills & Nash triumvirate shot to immediate superstardom with the release of its self-titled debut LP, a sparkling set immortalizing the group's amazingly close, high harmonies. While elements of the record haven't dated well -- Nash's Eastern-influenced musings on the hit "Marrakesh Express" now seem more than a little silly, while the antiwar sentiments of "Wooden Ships," though well-intentioned, are rather hokey -- the harmonies are absolutely timeless, and the best material remains rock-solid. Stills' gorgeous opener, "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes," in particular, is an epic love song remarkable in its musical and emotional intricacy, Nash's "Pre-Road Downs" is buoyant folk-pop underpinned by light psychedelic textures, and Crosby's "Long Time Gone" remains a potent indictment of the assassination of Robert Kennedy. A definitive document of its era.
