>>Not that I didn't like CCR, but I was never able to get over the feeling that they were a group who wanted desperately to be 'The Band', and never quite made it.

>Yeah, there was this guitar player by the name of Stephen Stills who played with them. . . . I think he went on to be a member of one of my very favorite bands - CSNY!


For a band that was only together two years, Buffalo Springfield led to a lot of bands. Not only CSN (and later Y) but also Poco, Loggins and Messina, and Souther-Hillman-Furay. "For What It's Worth" will be listened to for as long as music is played on the radio.

Now that I think of it, I wouldn't be surprised if that song has been mentioned in all the Dick Cheney hoopla --

There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware

Dick Cheney! LOL
