Review - :
The {$Crosby, Stills & Nash} triumvirate shot to immediate superstardom with the release of its self-titled debut LP, a sparkling set immortalizing the group's amazingly close, high harmonies. While elements of the record haven't dated well -- {$Nash}'s Eastern-influenced musings on the hit {&"Marrakesh Express"} now seem more than a little silly, while the antiwar sentiments of {&"Wooden Ships,"} though well-intentioned, are rather hokey -- the harmonies are absolutely timeless, and the best material remains rock-solid. {$Stills}' gorgeous opener, {&"Suite: Judy Blue Eyes,"} in particular, is an epic love song remarkable in its musical and emotional intricacy, {$Nash}'s {&"Pre-Road Downs"} is buoyant {\folk-pop} underpinned by light {\psychedelic} textures, and {$Crosby}'s {&"Long Time Gone"} remains a potent indictment of the assassination of {%Robert Kennedy}. A definitive document of its era. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
