Standing watch on the signal bridge of a US Destroyer on a Med cruise during wartime. We had 2 cassettes and this was one of them. Stopped counting how many times we had to rewind that cassette with a pencil. Sailing the Mediterranean at night with that song in the background will leave an impression on you. This was awesome guys. Thanks
ok, I have admired you guys for years. But you have outdone yourselves. It captured the elan of CSNY. The guitar work was superb. Great tone. Wonderful vocals and harmonies fading in and out. You guys are the kings and queens of covers. I’d love to take a master class from you on recording techniques. I stand in awe.
Superb! Masterful professional musicianship by the Fossils! Transports me back to my college days of non-violent protest. [I, too, am a fossil, age 73.]
You are really showing your age, Boomer! I’ve never heard of this song! I prefer more newer and popular songs. They are incredibly talented musicians, though and I love them.
Might be the best yet, in a series of incredible performances,....and that is saying something. Every time I listen to you guys I want to say thank you for letting us hear you play and sing.
Seriously Outstanding. Definitely the rock-iest song you've recorded. Toby killing the rhythm guitar, Rick on bass, Tim and Dar, Johnny - the drumming, WOW! The musicianship quality is amazing ! ' oooh, you don't need us rift ' - spine tingling ! ....( edited)
Sometimes I groan a little at song choices. Well, not this time! Not only one of the best song selections, but one of the most stellar performances as well. Stunning.
@@leonardblush2557that's what I think of yellow brick road. f&f did a great cover, just don't like the song whoever does it. however it still gets a like because it was well done.
Letter perfect mix and performance. Love how the two Fossils did the Crosby and Stills lead vocals and the Foxes effectively did the CSN backups. Chilling and effective 👌
Breathtaking. What a remarkable performance. Especially liked Toby's sensitive playing and tone and Johnny's making some challenging drumming seem effortless.
Superb song and magnificent cover. I shed a tear for times long gone when the girls' harmonies came in. I was moved and just for a few seconds, a young man again.
It's nice to hear this excellent rendition of a David Crosby song. He may have been a problematic person, but he wrote some fine songs and created new music even until his death. The band, as usual, turns in a flawless performance.
WOW just discovered Foxes and Fossils today, this is just amazing. Thank you so much fellas !! Anyone who ever saw CSN&Y live would appreciate this big time ! Best cover of Wooden Ships I have ever heard - by far. Lexington Lab Band co-op is also pretty phenomenal at covering a VERY wide range of songs, but mostly 80's and 90's popular tunes.
Love this song and have noticed that CSN have varied it somewhat over the years, each version a little different which simply adds to the greatest of the music. Foxes and Fossils took a little path as well and delivered as good a cover as I have heard. They keep on keeping done. Well done and thank you.
New to the F&F train, nothing but superlatives to proclaim here, you guys are amazing. It's not like you cover "easy" songs, these are songs that are musically challenging and difficult harmonically. I've been listening to "Love Is The Answer" almost daily now for a couple of months, and it really helps me get through the day. Thank you.
I always loved this song. I sailed a fair amount and the metaphor resonates. This is another fantastic performance by F&F; musicianship, vocal blends and production. Thank you very much.
I've returned here to wait for F&F's latest release on 8/21/2024. While waiting, I've listened to Wooden Ships yet another 2 times and I seriously do not know whether they'll ever be able to top this performance. I've had my favorite covers of theirs in the past, but this one shot them all to pieces.
Another great cover of an epic CSN song. This one was probably particularly challenging to collect and cover all of the parts. Well done guys and gals!
Well.....I just listened to this song twice, back to back....I had the pleasure of knowing David Crosby personally....He loved when other artists covered their songs...always lent an enthusiastic ear to 'covers' of their songs...I would expect that he is looking down and giving full approval to this version. You can hear Paul Kantner's contributions as well as Stephen Stills'. Your interpretation of the song has the proper homage to the original as well as very tasteful amount of artistic license...I am so impressed. Thank you!! I'd love to sit in.....
1969, stationed at Camp McCoy. We'd sneak into the photo lab, where we had a stereo set up, and listen to this album, Jefferson Airplane, The Rolling Stones, Sly, Jimi, and King Crimson. This song caught the zeitgeist. Concerned, confused, stoned, idealistic, and still hopeful even though the Vietnam War, the '68 convention, Kent State, and more made it feel like the world gone mad. Six decades later, I hear this recreated lovingly and gloriously. And just like 60 years ago, we are all in deep water... and I'm still hopeful today. Hearing this puts me in a good space. Your taste, talent, and perfection are exquisite, and we are blessed by them.
I keep coming back to watch this video ever since you Fs & Fs released it. I LOVE this performance. It hits me hard just like your performance of Suite Judy Blue Eyes 14 years ago that made me a huge fan of yours. World Class!
Living and sailing on a wooden schooner for the last 20 years, of the same designer as Crosby's schooner Mayan, this song holds a special place for me. Thanks F&F for a superb rendition.
These people turned a masterpiece into another masterpiece. What to say, except that I wish the best for you all. Thani you very much for your time and efforts for bringing this masterpiece to another level.
Ouh what good! I am sitting in the far away Germany and listen to your wonderful interpretation of this wonderful song. I am very impressed, you beating it in the heart of the seventies (I hope this was the right American English…🙈) Carry On!
You guys give me shivers, taking on every song I use to listen to as a teenager!!! This one, along with Carry On still sound amazing to this day!!! Thank You!!!!!!
Je vous suis depuis plus de 10 ans, depuis que j'ai vu votre reprise de Suite Judy Blue Eyes et vous êtes vraiment fantastiques et géniaux dans vos reprises. Bonjour de France
Absolutely stunning from the fossils here, on a very difficult song, with superb musicianship, arrangement and production - and the foxes added a lot with their harmonies. Keep them coming.

My all time favorite song!
Phenomenal! Exceptional talent all around.
Stunning. Vocals are insanely good!
Just gorgeous sound.

Excellent job! on a very difficult song. Not many can pull that one off.
Superb! Masterful professional musicianship by the Fossils! Transports me back to my college days of non-violent protest. [I, too, am a fossil, age 73.]
Stunning rendition of the song. Well done all.
Seriously, what a perfect rendition of this song. Keep making music, amazing voices, harmony, musicians! Thanks for this bright spot in our world…
Couldn’t have said it any better…………….
You are really showing your age, Boomer! I’ve never heard of this song! I prefer more newer and popular songs. They are incredibly talented musicians, though and I love them.
@@mymaryland9547, and you're showing your lack of respect, child.
@@mjtala Is that the best that you got, dude? 🤣😂🤣😂
Yeah, and they might also want to work up the Airplane version since they definitely have the voices...
Might be the best yet, in a series of incredible performances,....and that is saying something. Every time I listen to you guys I want to say thank you for letting us hear you play and sing.
For a very beautiful 5 minutes and 24 seconds, I was sent back in time.
Goose bumps...what a cover of one of the greatest bands and one their best songs...KUDOs!!!!
These guys are unbelievably incredible

That's Rick Meeder on bass 👍
Outstanding!❤
Always liked that song ❤
Quite an intricate undertaking! Lots of parts going on in this one! Excellent job!
Damn, ya'll killed that harmony part at 3:05. Hit it right on the proverbial nose. Well done, indeed.
Sometimes I groan a little at song choices. Well, not this time! Not only one of the best song selections, but one of the most stellar performances as well. Stunning.
You groan f&f ? Ok
@@DL-ry3qg If I don't like a song, it matters not who performs it. I just pass and wait for the next one.
@@leonardblush2557that's what I think of yellow brick road. f&f did a great cover, just don't like the song whoever does it. however it still gets a like because it was well done.
@@davidvogel6359 Yep, I always give them a like even if I don't listen.
I wish i could give the ones like this one multiples.
Really F'n & F'n nice! Great sounds, great mix, great cover all around!
Really great job, guys. Nice guitar work, brothers. Enjoying it.
You guys are good! The bass sound is amazing.
Rick Meeder on bass.
Absolutely great cover!!
what a truly great performance from this group - Ian
I’ve run out of superlatives for F&F. Superb on every level. You have played a classic with excellent musicianship and great heart. Congratulations!
Amazing production of a superb classic - keep em coming! Love your work.🙏🏼💛
Namaskar. 🙏
Great Job all! You have honored one of my all time favorite songs very well!
Another beauty. Congratulations to Toby for a stellar solo.
F & F really raised the bar with Wooden Ships!!!❤
Letter perfect mix and performance. Love how the two Fossils did the Crosby and Stills lead vocals and the Foxes effectively did the CSN backups. Chilling and effective 👌
What can I say F and F, you knocked it out of the bag (again). The singing was so awesome, and the instruments were magnificent. wow, wow,and wow.
Bleeping spectacular.
It takes a tremendous amount of planning and work to make these videos. Thats why we love the Foxes and Fossils
Großartig! Vielen Dank!
Great inspirational post..Y'all sounds great ..Looks like fun too
Wow! That's the best version of Wooden Ships I've heard in 54 years! Well done!
Wow, that really brings me back to 1969. Wonderful
Outstanding with a side of goose bumps
Absolutely magnificent!!! Everything about this performance is perfection!! Bravo!!!
Wow....this takes me back.......I love CSN...
Breathtaking. What a remarkable performance. Especially liked Toby's sensitive playing and tone and Johnny's making some challenging drumming seem effortless.
Superb song and magnificent cover. I shed a tear for times long gone when the girls' harmonies came in. I was moved and just for a few seconds, a young man again.
Wow! Fabulous cover!
Just blown away... listened to it over and over...wowooow.
Incredible!!!!
Pure magic, thanks for your dedication to your craft so that we mere mortals can enjoy it all through our lives!
Holy crap. These guys are just ridiculously good and just keep getting better.
Great touch on the instruments with awesome tones. Throughly enjoyed the boyhood fave
It's nice to hear this excellent rendition of a David Crosby song. He may have been a problematic person, but he wrote some fine songs and created new music even until his death. The band, as usual, turns in a flawless performance.
One of the best versions ever! Kind regards from Europe (The Netherlands).
CSN fan from the beginning this was really nice to hear your song. guitar great singing also great...Greatings from the Netherlands

Well over 100 excellent covers of a wide range of music from the past 70 years here.
@@lynwessel2471 Cool and thanks for the info. Looks like I have a lot of catching up to do ! 🤣 They are great !
Absolutely brilliant. An absolute classic, covered absolutely brilliantly.

Just when we think F&F can't outdo themselves, they outdo themselves. EPIC! Wonderful.
Dang, folks, it's great when you open your pipes. You sure do it right. Thanks for posting.

Wow. You folks tackle some really complex pieces and do it well. CSNY is music I grew up listening to. This makes it fresh again.
Really well done by all. Bravo! 🙏🏻

First of all it’s a great song. Second it was well replicated. Nice job.
Best song you ever replicated.
Another great cover of an epic CSN song. This one was probably particularly challenging to collect and cover all of the parts. Well done guys and gals!
For a brief and brilliant moment, you were the song. All of you. And that is all I could have asked for..
beautifully put.
With every song F&F does I think they can’t get it better, they they do.
Every! Time!
Thank you F&F for breathing life into the music I love!
I like the added color to probably CSN's most beautiful song.
So well done. Brings back so many memories..............
It was worth watching this video of the editing alone. It made the song even better.
Wow. Just excellent. I like the fact that the harmony by the girls is into one mic. Some smooth guitar playing boys.
Well.....I just listened to this song twice, back to back....I had the pleasure of knowing David Crosby personally....He loved when other artists covered their songs...always lent an enthusiastic ear to 'covers' of their songs...I would expect that he is looking down and giving full approval to this version.

WOW! Johnny Pike, showing your jazz chops. Well done and spectacular...as always!!
( we all know it wasn't take 36, lol)
great song, great performance!
Fantastic. Many, many thanks. Graham Nash must be in awe.

Glen Hulse there at the time or a guy Named Strubrud? BTW, FF does wonderfully and I couldn't agree more with your Sentiment.
Nicely said.

Hit the orange F&F for their list of 100+ excellent songs. They've been doing it since 2010. Still post one about once a month.

Soulful and breathes new life into the original...so very well done.

Absolutely stunning from the fossils here, on a very difficult song, with superb musicianship, arrangement and production - and the foxes added a lot with their harmonies. Keep them coming.
Fantastic! My favorite CSN song.
Bravo! Such a hard song to emulate! - You rocked it! Super well done and Beautiful! Like you!
I'm amazed! No one tries to cover this besides F&F! Great work!
