 Stephen Stills March 4, 2008
This package arrived quickly, packing was excellent and the CD was in sealed and in pristine condition. Everything was better then described and would purchase from this seller again.

I found this album to be great. I just heard Steven Stills in Concert and had to get this album. Reminds me how much I enjoyed his music in my younger years~
 "Four Days Gone" and you'll still be listening to Stephen live!! June 19, 2007

As the author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent" and a former radio disc-jockey, I am often asked to write and or discuss various recordings from the 60's and 70's.
A great artist always seems to have one release if not more that has slipped through the cracks. Stephen Stills "Live" (March 8 and 9 of 1974) is missing from too many CSN and sometimes Y fans collections.
Maybe it is because the trademark Stills harmonies aren't the featured attribute of the recording. At the front of the line is the terrific guitar playing of Donnie Dacus (Chicago, Roger McGuinn, and Billy Joel) with the pure emotion of Still's stage energy and song content.
The album was split into an acoustic side and an electric. "Wooden Ships" is outstanding from the electric portion and representing the acoustic selections in fantastic fashion is "Everybody's Talkin At Me." Stills is superlative in the inclusion of the cover tunes "Rocky Mountain Way" (Put on the map by Joe Walsh, although he did not write it), "Crossroads" (From blues great Robert Johnson, made famous by the legendary Cream version), "You Can't Catch Me" (A Chuck Berry classic that John Lennon did a 5 star version on his "Rock & Roll" album), and "Everybody's Talkin At Me" (Although written by folk great Freddie Neil, the signature version is from Harry Nilsson).
Stills rendition of the Freddie Neil composition is one of the finest covers ever. The joy and heartfelt fondness for the song is evident in every word.
Yes, he did go back to the vaults and unlock Buffalo Springfield material for us!
In case this has been gathering dust in your vinyl collection, an upgrade to CD would do wonders. If you haven't experienced the pleasure of this effort, no time is better than now!
Enjoy the music and be well,

If you are not a fan of Stephen Stills individually,this recording will not convert you.If you are,however,this compilation of electric and solo acoustic performances
will bring you many hours of enjoyment.
The highlights of this disk are the full band,electric tracks
(Wooden Ships,Four Days Gone,and a sort of odd choice to
cover Joe Walsh's Rocky Mountain Way)
We forget that in addition to being a very talented singer/songwriter that Mr Stills can really wail on that guitar!
Here he uses the opportunity that he does not get on the
CSN&Y studio recordings to do extended electric guitar solos,and they are a delight.
His singing and his overall performance are in fine form here,and his backup band is his usual crop of the best
studio musicians available at the time.
As previously stated--an excellent showcase for an excellent
musician doing what he does best.
Great Set From Stills February 11, 2006

this is a nice collection of Stills playing live, a no-frills CD-packaging of the popular 70's album. the first half (Side 1) is electric, the second (side 2) is accoustic. Give SS kudos for an interesting set list, this isn't just a re-hash of hits. Well worth having.
