Really very poor.  Just doesn't work its like lots of bits of separate songs none of which sound all that great.  I also keep thinking oh no the next song is no good either but actually its just another bit of this that isn't good.

I like a lot of Buffalo Springfield but I'm not a fan of this song.  It seems to be all over the place, maybe overly ambitious.   To my ears there are elements of this song can be found in Young's "Country Girl", which I think is a great song.

Ahh, taken back to my good ole days - thanks Bill {#Notworthy}  Just checked and my album is a 1968 copy of "Buffalo Springfield again"  Will listen to this amazingly ahead of its time album again tonight and reminisce back to the times when I first heard it - accompanied with something special imported from Amsterdam!

Ahh, here it is. The daily Neil Young, swiftly followed by Talking heads, Peter Gabriel, Pink Floyd and U2. Hopefully next so we can them out of the way and get the 'decent' music going again. Bill probably puts them in there to satisfy a requirement.

Read The Last Sultan: The Life and Times of Ahmet Ertegun. Many great accounts in this single volume, which you may be able to find at your local library.

It sort of has everything but the kitchen sink—no, strike that, I distinctly heard a kitchen sink playing harmony to the clarinet solo!

I appreciate hearing this again. This song was a progressive rock icon before there was progressive rock. Young's sensibility is firmly etched and the arrangement is transcendental.

I loooooove Neil Young's work with Buffalo Springfield.  Definitely some of his finest moments. And it's got a clarinet solo!

A big YES.     {#Clap}

Wilco was doing a great cover of this on their most recent tour....  Most of the crowd had no idea what the song was but those who did were blown away.....

7.4 Is all the love this gets? This was so far ahead of most of the other stuff being played at the time, Still IS! Wonderful.

...or disorganized noise. Sounded like the latter to me. Or a Frank Zappa gig when someone forgot the vibes back at the hotel.{#Lol}

This incredible mix of music from the last 5 decades is why I listen to RP.  You won't hear this stuff in this mix anywhere else on this planet.

It was Stills.

Pretty sure it was Stills.  He sang the vocal lead in the actual song, Mr. Soul, IIRC.  Those days are really fuzzy, the smog was pretty thick back then.

I'm sure the record label freaked on the addition of clarinet... what a schlock mix.

OMG. I just realized that not only is Neil musically the Godfather of Grunge, but his vocals are the wellspring of emo! Plaintive.

Terrific song from a terrific album (Again).  An underrated group of talented musicians/singers/writers that went on to form other great groups.  I also liked that this group managed to show their different influences — from country to jazz.

Ben Folds seems to have borrowed a bit from this song for his "The Last Polka" song
