CSN is 49 today...\r\n","content_html":"

Crosby, Stills & Nash (CSN) were an American-British folk rock supergroup made up of David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash. They were known as Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (CSNY) when joined by occasional fourth member Neil Young. <\/span><\/p>\n\n

So what made CSN so special, noted for their intricate vocal harmonies, often tumultuous interpersonal relationships, political activism, and lasting influence on US music and culture. <\/span><\/p>\n\n

Fittingly, Crosby, Stills & Nash were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and all three members were also inducted for their work in other groups (Crosby for the Byrds, Stills for Buffalo Springfield and Nash for the Hollies). Neil Young has also been inducted, but as a solo artist and as a member of Buffalo Springfield, not for his work with the group...<\/span><\/p>\n\n

What does the future hold for CSN???  Lots of rumors swirling of a reunion but it depends on who you ask....
\nCrosby would welcome it....Stills is a bit more cynical saying WHY?...Nash said CSN is done (old hurt feelings)...but with next year marking 50 years, will an offer be made to reunite the guys???<\/span>\"\"<\/p>","author":{"name":"Jim Hudson"},"_mobile_inapp_url":"https:\/\/www.997classicrock.com\/_app_pages\/stations\/3324\/blogs\/posts\/32999"},{"id":"http:\/\/www.997classicrock.com\/on-air\/blogs\/jim-hudsons-blog-565121\/entry\/74\/","url":"https:\/\/www.997classicrock.com\/on-air\/blogs\/jim-hudsons-blog\/post\/new-metallica\/","title":"NEW METALLICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!","date_published":"2016-11-18T15:44:49+00:00","summary":"BACK TO FUTURE FOR THE MIGHTY MET!!!","content_html":"

\"\"The return of Metallica is marked with a new, dare I say, ASS KICKING DOUBLE CD!!!<\/span><\/p>\n\n

Hard-wired To Self-Destruct is a trip back to some classic vibes... harkening back to the sound that Metallica build it's legacy on....<\/span><\/p>\n\n

It's been 8 years since Death Magnetic and that was, in my opinion a damn good album... but this one may be even better!!!<\/span><\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/p>\n\n

I hear echoes of Ride, Master, Justice and even some Black Album on this thing...<\/span><\/p>\n\n

Lars actually is banging hard on this album, Kirk is shredding and Robert I swear is channeling some Cliffy on several songs, and James is spot on vocally...dare I say a bit melodic...<\/span><\/p>\n\n

so is it worth the buy or download????....HELL YES!!!! <\/span><\/p>\n\n
