Video: Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young - "Down by the River"

Classic video of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young performing "Down by the River" from YouTube (Click icon in center below to play directly).

And, no, From Here To Obscurity, this is not Rick James. It's ~~Fuzzy Samuels~~ Greg Reeves on bass.

Those three Gretsch guitars in a row is a beautiful thing indeed.

i have have always been very negativ against CS&N but know i don't think they are all that bad.

But do anyone know what tv-show and year this is from?
At 3/13/2006 09:00:00 PM, Anonymous said...: Music Scene, ABC (US) 1970...

If you have a big screen TV, this will make you either feel old,if you remember the show, or if yer just into the music, then watching CSNY rake those strings is pure heaven.

Thanks for hosting video!

Great video! Makes you want to go back in time. I notice that Neil seemed a little less animated in those days (compare his Saturday Night Live performance in 89)
