Review by Aaron Lavery

It all comes together as ample evidence that CSNY were a real phenomenon.»

Long-rumoured and highly anticipated, 'CSNY 1974' captures the band's one-of-a-kind harmonic alchemy during its remarkable outdoor stadium tour, a trek that spanned more than two months, and included 31 concerts, in 24 cities, with combined audiences of over a million people. Produced by Graham Nash and Joel Bernstein, the box set mirrors the electric / acoustic / electric format that the band followed each night on stage, representing an idealized version of a show from the tour. The box set includes some of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young's best-known music; songs like 'Suite: Judy Blue Eyes,' 'Helpless,' 'Wooden Ships,' and 'Teach Your Children.' During the 1974 tour, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young also introduced new songs that emerged later on various albums, like Crosby's 'Time After Time,' Nash's 'Fieldworker,' and Stills' 'First Things First.' Several songs by Young are previously unreleased, including 'Traces,' 'Love / Art Blues,' 'Goodbye Dick,' and 'Hawaiian Sunrise.'
