Like the Byrds, Buffalo Springfield were influential in the melding of rock and folk that led to the country-rock sound of the '70s. Neil Young and Stephen Stills were the main singers/songwriters, constantly battling for creative control of the group. From this tempestuous union came melodic rock that ranged from Young's waltz-flavored "Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing" and the Beatlesque "Burned" (featuring Young's piano playing) to Stills' muscular guitar style on "Leave," which foreshadowed his subsequent work with Crosby, Stills & Nash. Fame came by way of Stills' "For What It's Worth," a moody song about a cops-versus-kids conflict on Sunset Boulevard. Two turbulent years and two albums later, Buffalo Springfield broke up, but they'd already blazed the trail for their disciples to follow.

Great Album cuts This is thee Buffalo Springfield album to add to your collection. There are the usual hits (i.e. "For What It's Worth") but some absolute gems like "Do I Have to Come Right Out and Say It." Awesome. A must have.

I Remember When This album defines music of that time.
Buffalo Springfield captured the energy
and restlessness of the 60s.
For me, "For What it's Worth" and "Do I
Have to Come Right Out and Say It" are
my two favourite tracks. I was also im-
pressed with "Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing" (I prefer the later "Fever
Tree" version) and has become my signa-
ture song. Submitted by spacejockey1206 (Houston, TX, USA) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
My musical Genesis This group more than any other (Yes, even the Beatles) formed my musical backbone. Growing up in the 60's there was a lot of good music. The Springfield consistently amazed me with their depth of talent. I see CSN&Y whenever they come to town. Poco too has a place in my CD changer.
