Cool.
How about a tag for Dallas Taylor?
He's 50% of that groove.

Hey, thanks timsteil. I'm looking forward to hearing this. I really like listening to raw studio outtakes, the back-and-forth between musicians and engineers or producers, and that's even when I don't especially like the music. I actually have a pretty visceral dislike of CS&N, but that's irrelevant n this case. What I like is the peek behind the curtains.
In a similar vein, here's an FPP of mine from just a little while back, for those who might've missed it: just some blokes mucking around in the studio.

it's a lot different when you know you can't pro tool it to death later on, isn't it?

Excellent stuff. Crosby's excellent 1971 album If I Could Only Remember My Name has a ton of outtakes floating around too. Basically a backing band of Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead, with Crosby, Nash, Young, and Joni Mitchell singing. Pretty much gorgeous from start to finish.

Yes! I'll happily read a making-of article about an album I don't think is particularly good. I've also watched most of those Classic Albums docs.

I will take pretty much any excuse for an opportunity to link to this performance of "Long Time Gone" by Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, and Tom Jones.

Someone else wants a little more Dallas, too.

I was so stunned by and enamored of that performance that I made an FPP on it just over a year ago.

One of the best albums ever recorded, imo.

Great that they included the parts with Stills being an asshole for posterity.
