โ€œTo give the image an authentic feel, I decided to reproduce it using 19th century techniques. From the 35 mm black and white Plus-X negative, I created an 8ร—10-inch master negative. 1/4

โ€œThere were other people involved so the song [49 Reasons] changed from the demo that I had. The backwards guitar solo that I have on the original, the way that it twists and turns with the melody, it made me want to cry. Itโ€™s absolutely heart-stopping." Stephen Stills

โ€œI was in a group, The Company. We toured through Canada & the 1st gig was in Fort William, Ontario, now called Thunder Bay. On our 2nd night this kid comes in & wants to do a set between our sets. He was doing folk music on an electric @GretschUSA . And that's how I met Neil." SS

"I decided to just take my monitoring system into the studio & sing for 4 or 5 days & pick out the best ones & basically have an album that was completely by myself. This is the 1st effort of my little record company that I'm going to do my solo stuff on." Stephen Stills

โ€œI thought they were going to be a revolutionary kind of group. It was fantastic to have 3 guitar players who were also outstanding lead singers. [When they broke up] I think it was one of the few times I cried because I just thought that I had the historic group.โ€ Ahmet Ertegun

"The whole process of writing songs is like, I just sit and play and diddle with it until I get it going. If I like the tune and get hung up in it, maybe I'll think of some words that will fit that bit of melody. Whatever that thought is will carry me into a song." Stephen Stills
