There's been several tributes to Neil Young. There's even been a tribute to Graham Nash's album "Song For Beginners". But there has never been a tribute to the collective work of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Until now! On October 15th, 2012, Sweden's Hemifren and Italy's Route 61 Music releases "Music Is Love - A Singer-Songwriters' Tribute To Music Of Crosby Stills Nash & Young. The album features, not only several musicians from the inner circle of CSN&Y (Stephen Stills' former girlfriend Judy Collins and daughter Jennifer Stills, Anthony Crawford and Rick Rosas from Neil Young's Electric Band, Sonny Mone from Crazy Horse, David Crosby's guitarist Marcus Eaton and vocal favorites Venice), but also some cool names from the 70's (Karla Bonoff, Elliott Murphy, Willie Nile, Wendy Waldman), some interesting names from the 80's (Sid Griffin from Long Ryders, Ian McNabb from Icicle Works, Liam O'Maonlai from Hothouse Flowers, Steve Wynn from Dream Syndicate), as well as some new-up-and-coming names from the alt country scene in the U.S. (Clarence Bucaro, Neal Casal, Carrie Rodriguez). The liner notes are penned by Dave Zimmer (author of two official books on CSN and CSNY), and CSN&Y's official photographer Henry Diltz offers some unpublished photos from his vast archives.

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVRCigmkbDk&feature=colike ◦ Joni Mitchell ~ I Had a King Live 
 ◦ Linda Hakes (nee: Barr) How sad for her!! How long were they married an did she ever get to spend time with her child? 

Pat Boland Well, Linda, they were still married when you and I first met them and through most of '67 at least. Interesting story there: I remember the afternoon when Joni was hanging at the Cellar, rehearsing and working on her writing... by way of ...explaining to me, the guy who booked the artists to play the weekends, why she had booked herself without Chuck. There is much emotional content in that song which really made sense but the most striking thing was regarding when she said to me that various venues around the circuit had started requesting Joni alone to play and so the end result was that at that point she and Chuck were already booked in advance at separate different clubs far in advance and wouldn't even be in the same city for the next year! If you know the song at all you already know where I'm heading with this... of all the lyrics in this most powerful song the most cryptic is "The king's on the road and the queen's in the grove till the end of the year" ...wow. As far as her daughter is concerned, the answer can probably be found in her interviews from around that time on JM.com. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 9 Sep 2012 18:32:19 +1000 From: "Pat Boland" Subject: Re: URGE FOR GOING Brian, My pleasure good sir!
