Touching Others Lives - Part 6 with Stephen Stills
Posted by: Susie // Category: Pencil Sketches, Rock ArtStephen Stills, musician & songwriter best know for his part in Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - a great line up unto itself. Also known for his work in Buffalo Springfield.
Stephen Stills was one of the first, if not the last to be nominated into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, twice in one night for his work in both the above bands.
His influence ranged from Blues, Folk & Latin Music - Diversity. A quality that we often forget about, being diverse, we focus on what’s easy, what we are familiar with. There is an entire world out there that we know nothing about. Start exploring and start trying something new!
Al Kooper was in a bit of a predicament when Mike Bloomfield left him a note during Super Sessions… “Dear Alan, Couldn’t Sleep…went home…sorry. Under the gun with half an album recorded, studio time booked and musicians ready to play..heading for the phone and leaving messages for players he knew would pre-vail.. in walked Stephen Stills, Buffalo Springfield had just broken up and Al Kooper knew his guitar playing was sizzling. Signed with another label, and of course, red tape, but great minds have a way of figuring those things out.. Corporate America at it’s finest.. it’s all about the money.
Luck & Diversity…Stephen Stills availability went up to the top twenty, went gold & went into our musical history books! Stephen Stills touches others lifes through the diversity of his music, touching many genre’s and creating memories as we listen to what he has released in his career.
Step out of your known comfort zone… diversify yourself today, pick up an album, cd or something you wouldn’t normally listen to, or normally do.. it may bring a smile to your face, it may open opportunites.
