Album Description:
One of the most enduring musical partnerships of our time, Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Famers Crosby, Stills & Nash (CSN) are beloved worldwide for their peerless three-part harmonies, inspired songwriting, and brilliant musicianship. Rightfully claiming a singular place among the artistically and culturally influential acts of the original Woodstock era, CSN has been called 'the voice of an entire generation.'
Amazon.com:
When David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash created this pop super trio in 1968 after their splits from the Byrds, Buffalo Springfield and The Hollies, respectively, it would have been a pipedream that a hits package released 37 years later would sound as eternal and essential as this one. The 19 songs straddle the four-album, landscape-altered timeframe between 1969’s post-Woodstock debut Crosby, Stills & Nash and 1982’s Daylight Again, which helped inaugurate the MTV era. Unbalanced sequencing--which randomly bounces 12 years ahead and five years back--is rescued by the superb harmonies, unique songwriting and divergent personalities of the three members. With politics and culture always at the forefront, Stills bookends the band’s trademark canon with 'Suite: Judy Blue Eyes' and 'Southern Cross,' Nash incorporates Eastern influences to 'Marrakesh Express' and folk timber to 'Just a Song Before I Go' and 'Teach Your Children,' and the ever-capricious Crosby leads the way lyrically with the lingering 'Delta' to the Robert Kennedy tribute 'Long Time Gone.' Sure, the collection is missing any songs by ('Ohio') or contributions from ('Woodstock') the fourth name on the marquee (Neil Young). Here’s hoping that’s for another Greatest Hits. --Scott Holter

Rating:  - A Great Collection of Greatest Hits
Formed in 1968, Crosby, Stills, and Nash combined classic rock and roll with a distinct folk sound to produce a very unique brand of music. Although the trio only recorded four albums together, they placed their mark on the American music scene that still remains today.
Each member of the trio provides their own unique talent to the mix. Stephen Stills is excellent on "Suite Judy Blue Eyes" and the ever-popular "Southern Cross". Graham Nash leads on the popular "Teach Your Children", ... Read More
Rating: - CSN Greatest Hits are the Greatest!
Timeless and nostalgic for those of us who were young adults in the Crosby, Stills and Nash heyday. Wonderful harmony.
Rating: - It's Deja Vu all over again
If you've never heard of CSN and you want to get an idea what these guys are all about, pick this up. Granted, it doesn't have the classics with Neil Young, but that's all right. These guys rock as either a three piece or a four piece vocal band. You can enjoy some good old-fashioned folk/protest rock from one of the original bands that did that kind of music. There's a bit of everything here. I'm really too young to see these guys in their true heyday (call it '68 to early 80s), but they are still ... Read More
Rating: - Awesome CD!
The CSN Greatest Hits CD is a notable collection of their hits from the late 1960's -1970. Their harmonies are unmatched by any recent group. The songs are reminiscent of the times with lyrics that bring delightful images to mind.
Rating:  - C S N Greats
This is a great disc. Track order is well laid out. Great music by a great group. Packaging stinks though. All cardboard, no protection for the CD.
