Flawless 16-Track Analog Masters for CD, BluRay, and Vinyl


Stanley Johnston, longtime recording engineer for Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, has mastered at Bernie Grundman's the band's historic 1974 tour. Recorded to 16-track analog 2-inch tape by Elliot Mazer and never released, the project collects the very best of numerous big arena and outdoor stadium dates with one of the most popular groups of the day.

"This project has been the most difficult, yet rewarding work I've ever done in my 50 years of recording," says Graham Nash. "It rekindled the love I have for my partners and the music we have made together."

"This recording has been in storage for 40 years like fine wine," reports Stanley Johnston. "Never released, it sounds fabulous. It's really wonderful to hear the whole loving team. I mentioned to Graham the other day that when you've got both Stephen Stills and Neil Young playing lead guitar on your song, it's pretty amazing."

  1. Crosby and Nash decide that saying good things about the tour will sell more CDs than saying bad things. Good piece in the Wall Street Journal, and some photos as well:
