Hey Gang, I downloaded a CSNY show from the Further Network last week. I finally got to burning it tonight, and Joni shows up on it in several places - does anyone know, is this one of the late summer shows from '74 they did together?? Did Joni open for CSNY?? Does anyone have the first half on the show? The date is 9.8.74.
Joni's unmistakable warble shows up without warning or introduction of any sort, lending a soft touch to an otherwise extremely SPOTTY performance. This is the only show I have from the '74 tour, and it seems to document very well what happens to genuine talent when lifestyle issues rage out of control. In fact, Graham Nash mentions at one point the difficulties the group had experienced at customs earlier that week. Stephen Stills in REALLY in bad shape here, a vocal kiss of death to all he touches. Glad I downloaded this of my own volition, as opposed to having traded for it and waited for the mail to arrive, etc. Glad also for the documentation of Joni's presence. Glad for the knowledge that I need not pursue other shows from the CSNY '74 tour. One (3 CD bonanza) is quite enough. Joni & Neil save this from the trash bin. -Chris Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!
