Thanks, I never knew that.

I should have added a ‘ditto’ to my post. Southern Cross is the only CSN (Y) song that I remember liking, offhand. If I never hear _Teach Your Children Well_ ever again, I won’t die happy, but maybe slightly happier.

That makes two of us. Going to summer camp in the 70s, you couldn’t escape that stuff. Every hippie with a guitar played it nonstop.

In general I liked the stuff with Young a lot better, but it’s super-uneven and pales next to what he was doing solo around the same time.
