Album Review:
This 77-track, four-CD set remains one of the best boxes devoted to a single
music act that one can buy, covering the output of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
across 22 years, from 1968 until 1990. The first thing that becomes apparent,
beyond the excellent sound (which was a revelation at the time, when only extant
editions of the group's work were the early, substandard CD editions), is the
sheer worth of the material. Crosby, Stills & Nash's reputation, based on their
first four albums, can be taken as a given for anyone who would think of buying
this set, and it does cover virtually every base that one could involving the
trio, with an occasional Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young cut included for
completeness' sake. Disc one by itself should be worth the price of the set to
serious fans, eight of its 18 tracks being previously unissued songs (including
a version of the Beatles' "Blackbird") and unissued early demos, alternate
takes, or variant mixes on songs from the Crosby, Stills & Nash or Deja Vu
albums, along with one Crosby & Nash outtake. Disc two is similarly filled with
previously unheard songs and versions of songs, although here the rarities are
more focused on material by Stephen Stills (including a Crosby, Stills & Young
version of "Black Queen"), Graham Nash solo, and the Crosby & Nash duo. Disc
three is devoted more to Manassas and Crosby & Nash, but does work in Crosby,
Stills, Nash & Young's "Taken at All" and "See the Changes" from various
attempts at doing albums. Disc four takes listeners up to 1990, with Stills,
Nash, and Crosby solo material (including unissued live and studio cuts) of the
'80s interspersed with released Crosby, Stills & Nash tracks and previously
unissued Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young tracks. The accompanying booklet includes
a sessionography and reminiscence about each track, and as most of this set is
presented in chronological order, one not only gets a dazzling four-hour-plus
song-by-song listening experience, but also what amounts to a montage/history of
the group and their members across more than two decades.
