The {|Crosby, Stills & Nash|} triumvirate shot to immediate superstardom with the release of its self-titled debut LP, a sparkling set immortalizing the group's amazingly close, high harmonies. While elements of the record haven't dated well -- {|Nash|}'s Eastern-influenced musings on the hit Marrakesh Express now seem more than a little silly, while the antiwar sentiments of Wooden Ships, though well-intentioned, are rather hokey -- the harmonies are absolutely timeless, and the best material remains rock-solid. {|Stills|}' gorgeous opener, Suite: Judy Blue Eyes, in particular, is an epic love song remarkable in its musical and emotional intricacy, Nash's Pre-Road Downs is buoyant folk-pop underpinned by light psychedelic textures, and {|Crosby|}'s Long Time Gone remains a potent indictment of the assassination of Robert Kennedy. A definitive document of its era. Music>Music>Folk>Folk>Folk, Mobile Fidelity Core >3<
