Editorial Reviews:

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

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."

Definitely an "Import" July 9, 2009

When I installed the c.d. into Window's Media, the album's title would not register. Also, sound is not impressive. I would not buy an "import" again.

How Many More Times? January 23, 2009

I agree with the other reviews about this compilation, but I already have the songs on other albums. CSNY WERE the best band in America; not even the Eagles can match them in quality, only in volume. That said, Neil Young doesn't appear on this album because of the lawyers. Neil was the lead guitar on "Woodstock", so it doesn't appear. Joni Mitchell wrote the song, so it doesn't appear. It seems as time passes, the window of cooperation gets smaller. Besides, the royalties are easier to handle if it's only CSN songs.
I think there's a ton of great stuff that never made it to the records, but, the record biz being what it is, we're going to have to wait. The CSN boxed set has the unadulterated version of "Almost Cut My Hair", the electric version of "Helplessly Hoping", a 1968 studio recording of the Beatles' "Blackbird" and a live solo of Stills' "Black Queen" that surpasses his solo album version, to mention a few.
There has been a palpable CSN-Neil Young schism that has existed since the '70s. Young managed to maintain his artistic and commercial viability
by being, well, Neil Young. He doesn't stop recording and releasing albums, thereby always being in the public eye. It also doesn't hurt that at least 50% of his latest release creeps into your subconscious, whereas CSN seem to reunite when the coffers are running low.
Don't get me wrong. This compilation is a great introduction to the original group for younger listeners who weren't aware of how good they could be, or went to a CSNY concert and asked "who are these three old guys playing with Neil?"

Okay-Not The Best Of CSN January 6, 2009

Don't know if I would purchase again as I was expecting more out of it but as a whole this music does send a very strong message about the United States.
