Rated 6/10
Aside from a couple of songs, I don't find it memorable.
Rated 8/10
Second half is better than the first.
Rated 8/10
This is the good stuff right here.
Rated 10/10
Country Girl should have been the closer, but otherwise phenomenal album
Rated 6/10
Najveći problem ovog albuma je za mene značajna oscilacija u kvaliteti pjesama, ide od nečeg nalik na ne-progresivni Yes do folka koji već provjereno mrzim. Prijatno je za slušati, pa čak i u gorim trenucima.
Rated 6/10
There's really nothing wrong with this, but it's just become generic overplayed classic folk rock. I'm exactly as old as this album, so I've been hearing it literally my entire life. I don't want to listen to it anymore. The only thing that keeps the sound fresh at all is Neil Young's guitar.
Rated 4/10
Deja Vu is right. I've had quite enough of Bing Crosby, Stephen Stills, Wyatt Nash, and Neil Young. Or whoever. I guess it's better than another Led Zeppelin, but looking at this album cover is just like, ugh. I feel like we've already had this exact album. We definitely had 'Teach Your Children' on another album of theirs (?). Are these all redos of songs from their previous albums? Is this where Taylor Swift got it from? It's not clear to me. Anyway, maybe it's just because I'm in a bad mood, but this isn't quite a 3 for me. Terrible 2s. Sorry for you, CSN(Y), try me again with your next 10 albums on this list, I'm sure.
Highlight: 'Teach Your Children', 'Our House' (only because it's in the Simpsons)
Rated 10/10
Great collection of songs. So much talent in one group. Shame they didn’t record more.
Rated 6/10
It was okay, but none of the songs stuck with me. Despite 3 of the songs being among the band's top 5 hits.
Rated 8/10
I saw Dr. Dog and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah at the end of a tour in early 2000s. To close this last show together, both bands came out and covered "Helpless." I still get chills.
Rated 8/10
Wasn't really excited for this. Aside from Neil Young's solo stuff, I hadn't really been able to get into any of the other guys' stuff or what I thought I've heard from CSN&Y.
That said, pretty shocked when the first two songs I recognized and regarded as fantastic, along with Woodstock. This is some primo Upper Peninsula driving music.
The second half of the record does let up a tad (although Country Girl is fantastic, but its to be expected with Young singing), and I'm not the biggest fan of the more country tinged stuff, but this is a fantastic record.
Rated 10/10
The Good: Apply-named album!
The Bad: My reaction to seeing the album on the list…
The Ugly: Me realizing I should not be so judgmental…
Young… Neil Young… Don’t care if he likes his martini shaken, not stirred. Don’t care that he drives a lovely Austin Martin… Don’t even care that Mrs Moneypenny believes he’s the kit ’n kaboodle… I don’t like the man, and it depresses me when I see his name is on the list…
I pressed play, Carry On was not offensive and sounded vaguely familiar, Teach Your Children is one of those songs which only those living under a rock have never heard before, and for once the harmonizing was found desirable…
Almost Cut My Hair, well, that’s when the Deja Vu kicked in…
The rest of the album became a blur, as I was brought from one Deja Vu into another… and then I played the album again… and again…
I don’t like CSN (with, or without the) Y, but this album is pure gold.
For me, there isn’t a song that makes me want to hit the skip button, it also has that lovely play time that is just under 35 minutes… That’s like watching 1 1/2 episodes of your favorite sitcoms—if one still remembers sitcoms…
5* given with a thumbs up and a smile
Rated 8/10
Crosby, Stills, and Nash were very good.
Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young are even better.
The slower songs were decent, but the more upbeat songs were gorgeous. Very pleasant album
Rated 6/10
Perfectly pleasant but not much that stood out or songs I would want to listen again.
Rated 8/10
𝘋é𝘫à 𝘝𝘶 captures Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young at both their most inspired and their most fractious. The vocal harmonies are gorgeous, the songwriting contributions distinct, and the mix of folk, rock, and country remains a defining sound of the Laurel Canyon era. It’s telling that drummer Dallas Taylor and bassist Greg Reeves — both credited and pictured on the cover, a rarity for session players — may have been the only ones actually holding the group together during the sessions.
𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘐 𝘓𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘠𝘰𝘶 makes for a rather underwhelming closer, but when 𝘋é𝘫à 𝘝𝘶 hits its stride, it’s a masterclass in late ’60s/early ’70s West Coast rock.
Rated 10/10
Stone-cold classic album. Their harmonies are iconic and nearly every track is good to great. To me the only exception is Almost Cut My Hair - the lyrics are pretty dumb - apparently Stephen Stills wanted to cut this David Crosby track, which would have been a good decision. That said, Stills doesn't get a complete pass - his Everybody I Love You is the second weakest track on the album (but not bad). The rest though? Outstanding. The 1001 has helped me discover I'm a Neil Young fan. Really liked his feature songs, Helpless and Country Girl (love the end of Country Girl. Would have been a better ending to the album than Everybody I Love You). But the best moments are when they sing those lush CSNY harmonies: Carry On, Teach Your Children, Woodstock, Deja Vu, and Our House. Amazing tunes - easy, easy 5.
Rated 6/10
Lays a foundation for southern rock and alt country. But a lot of it is schlocky and lame. A couple of bangers though
Rated 10/10
After listening to Radiohead I needed something good. This is that and more. One of the best acoustic supergroups ever and this album has many of their hits. Thank you for rescuing me!
Rated 10/10
Is this the capstone album of the hippy era? Pairing the psych blues rock sound with the rustic Americana country turn, CSNY embodies the back to the land bucolic aesthetic, a shift away from the more confrontational (or at least commentary) 60s sound to an inward looking search for the good life and concern with the outward appearances of rebellion (I almost cut my hair). Amazing vocal performances both from soloists but especially the group harmonies. I love Stills and Young exchanging gnarly filthy guitar leads under the whole thing, and the interplay between the acoustics in the rhythm section. A Jerry Garcia cameo (pedal steel on teach your children) doesn't hurt either! The recording is so nice too - there's so much space between the bass parts in the low end and the soaring highs of the vocals harmonies, and each instrument has its own room to come through and contribute to the whole.
Rated 4/10
Easy listening. The stand out tracks for me are those written by Crosby.
