Results for Buffalo Springfield

During its brief and stormy lifetime, Buffalo Springfield broke ground for what became country rock. In March of 1967, Buffalo Springfield went Top Ten with "For What It's Worth," written after the Sunset Strip riots.

    But San Francisco—the Fillmore, the Avalon, the Trips Festivals, the Diggers, Owsley’s acid, Haight Street and Ashbury and Masonic and Golden Gate Park, the Straight Theater, Herb Caen, the Barb, the communication company—these have been and are and will be the environment (read more)

    This one makes it on the lyric alone. Sam Cooke’s vocal is absolutely exquisite, of course, but the only thing “rock ‘n’ roll” about this record is its message, the simple power of the title phrase, as sung by a black man (a recently dead black man) in America on the public airwaves in 1965.

    Let me tell you about popsicle sticks. To me, a major aspect of rock ‘67 is the tightness of the new groups. By tightness, I mean the feeling of wholeness a group projects when they’re onstage (or in a recording studio)... (read more)

    This is an excellent gift for any Neil Young fan and for any music lover whether an acknowledged Neil fan or not. At the end of 1970, and for the first few weeks of 1971, Young went on a solo acoustic tour, playing and singing new songs from his recent album After the Gold Rush... (read more)
