This album is certainly improved with the bonus cuts but it's still an album of mixed blessings. There are cuts here that are true treasures while many (more than there ought to be) are less than what one has come to expect from these artists. I wouldn't be without this album, but it could have been so much more. But I have to point out that getting those amazing harmonies recorded in the studio is certainly different than trying to hold them together live, so it really isn't a surprise that a live album would show how difficult that feat is to accomplish, especially this early in their career together.
I Also Recommend: Déjà Vu, Manassas, Crosby, Stills & Nash [Expanded Edition], Woodstock - 3 Days of Peace & Music (Director's Cut), Harvest.

A must-have for every CSN&Y fan. This music takes me back to the invincible rock and roll of the '70's. I was fortunate enough to see CSN&Y on their last tour across the US (in 1973 or 1974?). I saw them at a high school football stadium in Houston, Texas. There were 83,000 fan in attendance. A staggering 49 songs were sung by these guys. What a performance! Perfect or not, this CD is incredible. It's perfect for me.
