  • At 81 years-old, Graham Nash describes his life as, “a magic story from beginning to end.” Graham’s career began in 1962 as a singer/songwriter in the British pop band The Hollies. After a string of hits in the UK, Graham left the Hollies, and moved to L.A. to start a band with the former Byrds vocalist, David Crosby, and Stephen Stills, whose band Buffalo Springfield had just broken up. From the start, Crosby Stills & Nash were dubbed a folk-rock supergroup, and they went on to become one of the era's most revered bands, thanks to their gorgeous three-part harmony and exquisite songwriting.
    Following the death of David Crosby in January, Rick Rubin sat down with Graham Nash to talk about Graham’s deep love and admiration for Croz. On today’s episode we’ll hear the first part of Rick’s conversation with Graham, who reminisces about the day he met Crosby, who immediately rolled Graham the most perfect joint he’d ever seen. Graham also explains how it was actually Cass Elliot from the Mamas and the Papas who was responsible for bringing CSN together, and he recalls classic stories about Neil Young’s unpredictable early days in CSNY.

    ABOUT BROKEN RECORD
    For generations of music lovers, the liner notes on albums were a central part of the way music was heard. You bought an album and it came with an accompanying narrative: a digression, an aside, a backstory-maybe even an invented history. We intuitively understood that great music required not just listening but conversation between the artist and the audience and the audience and the rest of the world.
    Broken Record is a podcast that restarts those conversations-in a world without liner notes-for a new audience of music lovers.
    Broken Record is hosted by Justin Richmond with interviews by producer Rick Rubin, writer Malcolm Gladwell, and former New York Times editor Bruce Headlam.

    That story of how he met Crosby, I was talking a walk on a nice sunny day as I listened to this conversation. I felt like as if I was right there the way he described it. Beautiful picture painted.

    I've never heard a bad interview when Graham Nash is the guest.
    Besides the fact he's an excellent musician and one of the best harmony singer's to ever perform, this man is very intelligent and his sense of humor is awesome.
    Graham has been an American citizen for over 30 year's so we can rightfully say he's a National treasure.
    Hard to believe at 81 he's still sharp as a tack.
    I'm looking forward to part 2 of this interview.
    When you have a guest like Graham Nash the interview seems to fly by so fast it leaves one eager for more conversation.
    Thanks gentlemen for your effort of providing superb content featuring noteworthy artists.

    What a legend. Great to hear from Nash, would love to hear Steven Stills sit down with Rick too. Stills is so talented and his perspective is very valuable.

    • @jeffball6656
      @jeffball6656 Год назад +9

      Stephen Stills is one of the most underrated guitars. He should be mentioned with the greats (Hendrix, Page, Clapton, Gilmour, Rory Gallagher…). I think Neil Young might agree

    • @maureenhorrigan7151

      I agree with you. But Stephen Stills doesn't like doing interviews. I'm sure all of us are still waiting for his autobiography to be finished.😅

    Graham has an amazing memory considering all that he has experienced. I have always like him the most since he is always down to earth and honest. I also had a high octave falsetto and could sing his vocal parts easily from albums they made. I learned with my friend when we sang Beach Boy tunes and then we formed a local Indiana band followed by three more. Ahh.. youth was so fleeting . I am rocking at 73 today. Thanks Graham for the music.

    Brilliant. So well timed. This reminded me that the FIRST record I ever bought was Graham Nash ‘Chicago’ on a 45. It was 1971, I was 9 years old and, with my $1.50/week allowance, walked up to the Waxie Maxies, a small record shop in Silver Spring, MD. Surprisingly, I still recall that moment looking at the wood shelves of 45’s. The high harmony has stuck with me through the decades, years later recognizing its origins in Bluegrass and Mountain music. What I didn’t understand at the time was the historical context, although around this time was also my first memory of driving the short distance from Silver Spring, MD into Washington DC. It was a year or two after the riots of 1968/69, anyone who could afford to moved out of the city to the near suburbs of MD and VA, and everything in the city looked like it was bombed out. At 8 or 9yo, I was unaware of the riots, but did know vaguely of the war in Vietnam because my uncle was there, I just didn’t understand how it came to DC. Documenting those years in the way that CSNY did is that irony and paradox of supreme beauty amidst injustice and horror.

    I love CSNY & Rick Rubin! Looking forward to listening to this podcast. Us muzik producers are so similar when sharing our views, stories, and experiences. It's like the spirit of muzik moves from body to body. RIP DAVID CROSBY. I've been enjoying the CSNY CLASSICS. I always go back to the classic rock and jazz and funk of the 60s and 70s. Timeless muzik never dies 😁💖🎶

    Hi Rick and Graham, this was thoroughly enjoyable and a surprise as well. I am anxious for part two! Graham is fascinating and the voice and songwriting is truly amazing. I am so old that I saw the Hollies when I was 11 yrs old at the Chicago Auditorium Theater and it was delightful. I saw a couple concerts if CSN and Crosby and Nash. Always and forever a favorite band of mine, as well as seemingly lovely ppl with some really interesting stories.
    I can't thank you enough, all the while I'm cleaning my kitchen, lol Looking so forward to the next installment. Peace and love.

    I was a lucky dude to see CSN & Y at Chicago Auditorium back in about 1978. Rory Gallagher opened for them. An amazing 3 hours, for sure. Tickets were about $15.00 . Dig that! Rest In Peace David Crosby. (I think I saw him at an Lake Station, Indiana Deja Vu strip club (yes it was called Deja Vu like their album) There he was with white long flowing hair and that white mouth covering mustache. I was massaging the shoulders of one of the new/young strippers whom liked talking with me when I saw him on the other side of the stage. I was just not comfortable enough to ask him if he was Crosby, Heh. He looked exactly like Crosby.)Back in 2010(?).

    Really wish I knew which song they're talking about. I do hear them harmonizing on a newer tune in the back of my head. It's stunning and I can't remember even the melody, but I still "feel" it. It was something I heard over the last year so. Thinking that's the one.

      @@Ahp0489 My favorite is Ohio and the live version from Journey Thru the Past is blistering. There's also an acoustic version from 1972 that I saw around and Graham really nails it. Then again, the entire 4 Way Street album has great Neil/Graham harmonies. Southern Man!

    Please correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Crosby, Stills & Nash fire Rick Rubin from their covers project? In fact, Crosby supposedly got into a very heated argument with Rubin.

    They should have reconciled. Not fair to the fans in my opinion. It feels like he is capitalizing because he is talking very differently about Crosby now that the guy is no longer around to be part of the discussion. Graham Nash has to address this before I buy any more of his music.

  • @milesfielding6584
    @milesfielding6584 Год назад

    Its not long ago that Nash was slagging off David Crosby . They had fallen out and Nash was very vocal about it. Apparently all about comments that Cros had made about Neil Young leaving his wife and taking up with hs current partner. Sad but true.
