    Morons. They could have ended up the greatest North American rock group of all time, rather easily.

    Ritchie Furrray - Poco

    Neil and Stephen Stills

    I was thinking of a thread on bands that became legendary after they broke up

    BS is near the top of that list

    Neil Young and Stephen Stills really did hate each other which is sad since they were Lennon and McCartney

    Neil Young is probably second only to Dylan as the greatest N. American songwriter of all time. Stills was pretty damn good too and basically carried CSN. None of those guys was really wired though to be in a group long term.

    My favorite early Neil song I think.

    Stills had his moments as a songwriter and I'm sure is considered a more technically skilled guitarist, but wasn't fit to carry Young's jock as far as taste and creativity. Neil gave him some charitable collaborations along the way, recording and touring with him, but always knew to get the fuck out.

    Disagree as no one wrote a song to refute Southern Cross. Southern Man (and Alabama) drove "Sweet Home Alabama". In which the response of "Powderfinger" was create to easy the peace.

    People forgot that Neil Young was a pall bearer and Ronnie's funeral.

    Sweet Home Alabama is the single most overrated rock song evar, and this is coming from a Skynyrd fan

    CSN was better without Y. No Y in Judy Blue Eyes or Southern Cross, and those are their best two songs by a cuntry myle

    Y's best work was always outside of CSNY so I don't place much stock this argument.

    I think SHA is terrific song (prolly not LS's best though) but it's a victim of classic rock radio formatting playing the same 500 songs over and over.

    Cream
    The Jimi Hendrix Experience

    You could also add Led Zeppelin even though they were huge before Bonzo died and they packed it in

    Yeah LZ doesn't belong on that list

    They were a super group when they were together

    I'll never forget the second time I saw them and there were kids there for Stairway to Heaven who had no idea what they were going to get

    STH is to this day top 5 on the classic rock all time list as far as popularity. Most Zepp heads consider it top 40 pop music which it was.

    Skinnerd is red neck shit.

    You're a retard too. The suite is ok, and Southern Cross is a pretty nice story about getting dumped. The best things those pussies ever recorded were all with Young though. Carry On and Woodstock are the two best songs rather easily, and neither would have ever happened without Neil as the other three fags had no idea how to make rock and roll music.

    Yeah a case could be made...

    I just didn't want to type out three song names.

    But I always think of as more of a Neil Young solo song even though it's CSNY. It just sounds very different to my ears.

    Kent State was a seminal event in my life at the age of 14. I still pour out a sip on May 4.

    I used to set my speakers pointing out my window and blast Ohio

    The guitar work is incredible. It is Neil. He wrote it in about 10 minutes
