"Don't you know we're ridin'..."

Very good album indeed. Highlights include "Marrakech Express" obviously, what a delight.

A classic. Applause

Many great songs in here: Wooden Ships, Suite: Judy Blue Eyes, Marrakesh Express, Guinnevere...

My favorite is Crosby's Long Time Gone:

Yeap, it is the opener for the Woodstock motion picture...

"Speak out you got to speak out against the madness
You got to speak your mind if you dare
But don't, no don't, no, try to get yourself elected
If you do you had better cut your hair, mmm
"

My second-favorite CSN album behind Deja Vu (unless you only count that as a CSN&Y album). some of the best vocal harmonies you'll hear on an album, fantastic stuff.

Great album. My favorite tracks are the ones that were written by Stephen Stills but Marrakesh Express is great too.

The opposite of this. That said, I don't think there's a weak song here. I ride for 'Marrakesh Express', 'Guinnevere', and 'Long Time Gone'. I actually think this may be a better album than Deja Vu, just seems a bit more chilled out, makes me feel like I'm listening to them all jam on a tourbus, straining to see them through the thick hashish haze. The vocal harmonies are delightful. Would definitely listen to this album in a field.
