I saw the young lady screaming over the body of her friend amid the smoke and blood. A few weeks later, CSNY recorded and released one of the most powerful songs ever recorded. In 1970 we were so angry. How could this happen right here in America?
Unfortunately when you are inside the belly of the beast everyone else is the problem. Humanity must endure the subjugation of the USA. Either they will go with minimal drama or the USA will bring the world down with them.
I'm Canadian and losing Crosby breaks my heart . I remember Kent State on the news in real time . He was more than a folk singer . Seeing Jason Isbell and hearing them embrace this song brought a tear to this old mans eye .Thank you for posting .Respect .
Agreed. These knuckleheads who yell "shut up and Play" at Springsteen and Mellencamp, when they play their "enlightened" songs should be ashamed of themselves. I've had to put up with that Lee Greenwood shit for fifty years, so you can park it while David Crosby and Jason Isbell weigh-in for the good guys.
Neil Young wrote this after seeing it on television. Took his guitar, went to the woods by himself. Came back to join Crosby. David called Nash and had him book the studio, engineer, and tape. Although Teach Your Children was climbing up the charts; they insisted on releasing OHIO immediately. But.... you're right Crosby was a genius songwriter.
I remember when they were killed,I was discharged that year from the military and the country was upside down with all goings on of war, racism,hatred,and senseless murder.Sad to say it is the same today 53 years later.We need lots of prayers and love to make this world better.
I’m right there with you . . this was a chilling song then and it hasn’t lost its impact after a half century ffs! Rabid right wing politics and corporate corruption are somehow thriving to this very day.
Isbell and his bandmates are so young, yet they obviously "get it." Those guitar solos reflect the pain and fear and frustration expressed in the lyrics with great power. Amen!
I attended Kent State University starting in 1973. May 4th and this song bring back deep memories. Even though it was 3 years after the shootings when I first arrived on campus. The May 4 rallies were part of my college experience. Thank you for posting this. Tears only Tears……..
Hey Gibby, see you often on JTEs songs, good to know your good taste spans far n wide. First time I seen this performance today and it shook me to my core. The Young-esque solo Isbell played while Crosby smiles wildly.. Just brilliant. "Why" indeed. 37 yrs old (I think 🤔😂) Ireland. Hope you're feeling better.
@@damotheman4196 there are still a few of us left with real music in our lives DTM! Also glad to you are on the same page!......You take care my friend.....
@@gibby6904 Same to you mo chara, no doubt our paths will cross again on a rainy Sunday rocking out with an old yamaha acoustic pulling my best "rock star" poses 😁😂. All the best man. Slainte.
David Crosby is an American Hero as well a National Treasure. Youve got a great music scene there in Rhode Island. I love to see the Young take on these important songs and carry that banner cause things are not getting better. Continue to Fight the Good Fight and do whats right. We can all be heros and together we can make the world change
Such a wonderful performance....two generations harmonizing a plea for peace. Jason Isbell, following in Crosby's footstemps; what a great sound! RIP, David Crosby.
Incredible. Thanks for sharing this. It got me teary eyed as I think of the senseless gun violence in this country. RIP David, you gave us great music always. 💯🎶🎸☮️
So great! Made me think, that I've heard a lot about Jason Isbell as a song writer and singer but I think some underestimate how great of a guitar player he is.
I have always thought this was the greatest protest song EVER! We need a mocie about THIS song because my kids dont even comprehend what this was about.
Oh, my oh my-- sooo-- INCREDIBLY intense, puts goosebumps all over, who else out there feels it, seriously, I'm very curious as to posing about said question-- to this day ( and l'm sure we all R fuzzy about the details, but, 4 young folks were just exercising the right to protest and lost their voices( and in the prime of their youth, and precious God- given lives). For what, they were weary of Vietnam and the political climate @ that time, the post should be a wake up call because History has a way of repeating itself, ✌ Peace out from East Tn
David Crosby...............What an amazing force.............What an amazing musician...........What an amazing voice..........What an amazing artist............What an amazing man...............may you reat in peace David.....R.I.P
True story. I’m at Ft. Dix’ NJ on my very first day of Army basic training. It’s July of 1970, about 2 months after Kent State. Our company has fallen into formation in front of the barracks. It’s 6AM and we’re waiting for the First Sergeant to arrive
Love seeing world class musicians have a GREAT time. Croz knows these guys have jammed on this song somewhere along their apprenticeship as the leads just SMOKE
Absolutely awesome! Gonna miss David for sure forever, a voice to be respected for a lot of us for sure, who spoke the truth. Sorry I'm just seeing this, but I'm sure glad I did. Props to him and Jason and all involved. Moved me!
We are all a little less now that David Crosby has left us. He had a complicated life for sure. I wish Jason Isbell and the 400 Init would put out a compilation of iconic songs like this one. They play Allman Brothers songs that inspire. This song was awesome. I will listen to this one often.
I’ve been a fan of Crosby for 54 years - ever since the first CSN album. I think I’ve seen him/them every time he/they came to the UK. Like most of us, he was a complex character - I never quite equated how he worked for peace yet loved guns - and I’m sure not an easy person to be in a band with. At 81, he had a decent innings - perhaps longer than his past life was likely to mean. So, like all of us, he’s gone but, unlike most of us, he leaves a legacy that will endure. That, and the love of a family aren’t the worst things to have to pass on with.
David Crosby was an admitted complicated person with many issues. But when he sings, no screams, how many more. you can't deny his passion. He presented the issue to Neil Young and Neil banged out the song quickly, brought CSNY together, who else to do this, The song and release were done in record time.
This song was so powerful to David Crosby……even though Neil wrote it, David shed most of the tears. RIP David, the angels are harmonizing in perfect key these days with you now.

And let us never forget the four; Jeff Miller (20), Allison Krause (19), Will Schroeder (19) and Sandra Scheuer (20). May 4, 1970.
Amen......
Remember the massacre at Kent State!
and never forget all the other civilian killed by US army abroad... more then 4... millions, i suppose... never forget!!!

Absolutely agree
@@sethie_shots From someone who was there,that day. It really means a lot to read these comments.

If Trump wins, how many more may we experience? Please vote 💙 .
It's been 53 years, what have we learned? As I sit 2 miles from KSU campus I can't understand how we're actually worse off now than we were then.

@@joelm6631 And you sold your soul for a red hat. That's assuming ya had one.
Stewart Mackey. Brought one to mine to.
Crosby only one with heart on his sleeve, as ever, as always 🙏 David
I went to Canada then, and recall the way the looters stalked and persecuted Crosby. It was impressive how stirred up they got over just one musician.
It's amazing how the world doesn't change and how relevant this is today. So grateful for the truth tellers.
Jason playing a Neil-style lead and Croz laughing in glee, all while delivering a social message. That's what music should be about...
Typical 400 Unit - and similar to what happened when Jason was in DBT - he and Sadler traded lead.
It's a good lead, but in my mind's ear Neil's version had an angrier bite to it. Could have been the immediacy of the tragedy.
Agreed. These knuckleheads who yell "shut up and Play" at Springsteen and Mellencamp, when they play their "enlightened" songs should be ashamed of themselves.

Thank You so much for putting this up. RIP David Crosby.
Tears, still, for all of us. Fly high David
So so true ❤️
Wow! After 50 years this song continues to bring tears to my eyes. As David says, WHY?
I still get chills. As an 18 year old college freshman in 1970 I was part of the Movement. Now an old hippie. Thank you Croz, RIP brother.
I’m right there with you . . this was a chilling song then and it hasn’t lost its impact after a half century ffs! Rabid right wing politics and corporate corruption are somehow thriving to this very day.
It is insane this happens EVERY FUCKING DAY in 2023, the world is lost

@@michaelhoffman5486 I suppose, but I honestly can't figure out why some embrace the police state, it is completely counterintuitive
The delight is evident on Croz's face as Isbell takes off on the lead.
Isbell and his bandmates are so young, yet they obviously "get it." Those guitar solos reflect the pain and fear and frustration expressed in the lyrics with great power. Amen!
Jason’s guitar isn’t loud enough.
Well said.
So does Amanda's fiddle.

Cried on this one today. We need the shootings to stop.

A very complicated man who gave us a LOT of great music
Better to burn out than it is to rust. The king is gone but he’s not forgotten.

Damn, this brings tears to my eyes. Two guys who fearlessly speak their mind. Miss Crosby already.
Makes me cry. We do need this song now and we are connected through the generations
Hello Joanie how are you doing today?
Such a wonderful performance....two generations harmonizing a plea for peace. Jason Isbell, following in Crosby's footstemps; what a great sound! RIP, David Crosby.

Like holy shit good
50-some years later I still tear up. RIP, Croz. 💕
David really put his heart into this one... the whole band did great!!
One of America's Anthems. 😎
A massive version of this massive song.
Hate to admit this. Its better then the original version
Rest In Peace Brother! You Will Never Be Forgotten!
I have always thought this was the greatest protest song EVER! We need a mocie about THIS song because my kids dont even comprehend what this was about.
Teach your children
Hello dear how are you doing today?
We WILL need this song after Tuesday Nov. 5th
Stellar rendition. Amazing video. RIP David.
Crosby was still rocking before he departed wow just 100s of days before he said good by

Has there Ever been a more powerful line than "what if you knew her/and found her dead on the ground..."
Nope, that is it
Thank you for all the good you've done! I hope the young people understand and carry on the message... RIP David Crosby...
excellent......thanks!!! really great....the perfect way to honor ,,,David.

Had never seen/heard this version before. Still just as strong and meaningful as ever. Thank you. 💜
Hello Lois how are you doing today?
All time great rock song.
GREAT playing by the lead guitarist on this.
Love these guys! Thanks for the music and for supporting team Harris/Walz .
Ahh , Cros is gone.
"Those who forget the past.....are condemned to repeat it".....
Love seeing world class musicians have a GREAT time. Croz knows these guys have jammed on this song somewhere along their apprenticeship as the leads just SMOKE

Thank you David
I remember when skip used to sing this song in the bars acapella no music unbelievable the man had the voice
Missing you David Crosby ❣️🎸🤙
Fly on, David. Thank you for everything.
That gave me chills. David was there when Neil wrote it. That's a great rendition. Rest in Peace and Love, David Crosby ❤️
Responded before dear david passed. What a wonderfull, iconic, talented personality. So much of my "wokeness" was due to CSN &Y
Whenever D Crosby stares at you playing like that, you nailed it.
One thing about David he still had the emotion...and of course the song.
Passing the torch for social consciousness via great music.
Stop the War!
Hello biair how are you doing today?
The guitar opening is so pure.
Absolutely awesome! Gonna miss David for sure forever, a voice to be respected for a lot of us for sure, who spoke the truth. Sorry I'm just seeing this, but I'm sure glad I did. Props to him and Jason and all involved. Moved me!
RIP David! Hope to see you on the other side one fine day!
I always loved Crosby's second voice singing. It's wonderful......this is here fantastically performed, great sublime.
David Crosby will be missed for sure. Still made new music up until his death.
Just held my breath for 6 minutes and 27 seconds.
😅 so much soul !
Heard this in 1981 at the age 12 rocked out to it then.Watched this and I bought a tear knowing David is no more and I’m older….RIP David
RIP David Crosby 🌹 🕊️ 🎸

Isbell was most definitely channeling ol' Neil with that solo. Great stuff!
Only one Neil Young though....
May God bless David Crosby
Wow. What a voice and just before he died. Went out like a trooper
He will be missed, such great music.
Thank you SO much for sharing this chilling version of one of the most important songs in the Crosby repitiore.

Rockin..Jason doin his best NY..Great version
He just channeled Neil -- even got into that Neil guitar stance -- what a fantastic performance by everyone involved.
What a beautiful, powerful version of this song. Mr. Crosby was amazing, even into the sunset of his life. Thank you for posting this...
Thank you 🙌🏼🙌🏼 - sail on David RIP
Absolutely brilliant. 😊
Thank you from Kent State grad 1976
God damn brought me to tears.. RIP Cros
Great tune! Also love the vocal harmonies and the trilogy on guitar! Fender, Gretsch and Gibson all together!!
Deja Vu is the first rock album I ever bought. Literally shifted my paradigm What a flashback. Never heard Jason Isbell before. Good stuff!
GREAT rendition.
