As smooth as silk on the bow of a scooner going around the horn to Mexico...

Stills' voice is like no other, and with the C&N harmonies added in this song is soooo wonderful.

Fabulous song that gets better with age....who cannot relate to "We never failed to fail....it was the easiest thing to do"?

This song makes my redneck go SCHWOOOMP! (that's a good thing, non-rednecks ! ) LOL I don't know why.

Metz, always do. I play a few of their songs, but I always play this one. It is such a great tune. I have always loved this band, and even though the early stuff was most remembered, it is this song I always love to hear. I play it myself because it is so beautiful. They are the best of what we heard in those old days.

The CSN song to which I keep coming back. The Jimmy Buffet cover is excellent but this original can't be beat.
