Named one of popular music's All-Time Greatest Albums by Rolling Stone magazine, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young’s “Déjà Vu”, brought to you by Keith Putney Productions brings you another Classic Rock Crossroads event featuring complete back-to-back performances of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young’s “Déjà Vu” and Neil Young's "Harvest" performed by a gifted cast. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young's "Deja Vu" became an album that defined the era upon its release in 1970. After the rapturous response to 1969’s “Crosby, Stills and Nash”, 800 hours of studio work were devoted to the creation of “Déjà Vu”, and the effort reaped breathtaking rewards. Underground FM embraced the album in its entirety, and upon reflection their judgement remains sound, Chris Stills, David Blasucci, Chris Ralles, Sally Zito and more have invested their talents in presenting the album live on stage from start to finish. “Carry On”, “Teach Your Children”, “Almost Cut My Hair”, “Helpless”, “Woodstock”, “Déjà vu”, “Our House”, “4 + 20”, “Country Girl”, and “Everybody I Love You” are the tracks that added up to an unforgettable classic.
In a career filled with superb albums and classic performances, 1972’s “Harvest” became Neil Young’s iconic, signature recording. Many of the songs were unveiled during a solo acoustic tour in early 1971, but “Harvest” wasn’t released until February, 1972. “Old Man”, “Alabama” “Harvest”, “The Needle and the Damage Done”, “Heart of Gold” ,“Out On The Weekend” “Are You Ready for the Country”, “Words” ”There’s a World’ and “A Man Needs A Maid” combine for an album worthy of its legendary status; it has also been named one of the greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone and Q magazine.
The show will also include musical milestones from each of the individuals that made up Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.
