This week's blog is part 2 of CSNY at Miwaukee County Stadium in 1974.

Found a few more images to add that give an interesting view of the stadium and the crowd from where I was stationed to photograph.

As you can see, I was just another person in the crowd for this show.

Love the clothes we were wearing in 1974!

Enjoy and have a great week.

Thanks,

A look today of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young (CSNY), when they played at Milwaukee County Stadium in 1974.

The house was packed for a great show on a beautiful summer day.

They shared the show with Jesse Colin Young and his Youngbloods and the Beach Boys.

Enjoy a look at CSNY when they were at their best.

Have a great week and enjoy the fall colors!

Thanks,

At Milwaukee's Summerfest music festival in 1973, Stephen Stills and his band, Manassas, gave a wonderful performance.

Manassas, was formed in 1971, by Stephen Stills who had broken up with Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young (CSNY) in 1970. Of course, this would be the first of many CSNY breakups, but that is another story sometime with photos to be included.

With CSNY, The Byrds and The Flying Burrito Brothers band breakups, we have a lot of wonderful musicians looking for something to do! Stephen Stills formed Manassaas as a result of these breakups and we had a terrific, very underrated band.

The first album the guys made was a double album recorded in Miami very quickly because they were so talented and had a lot of material. Another album would follow further on down the road.

The talent in this band is just amazing when you think about it! Enjoy a look at one of the best concerts I ever saw!

I just realized that the guitar Stephen Stills is playing is the same as the one Doug Yankus of the band Soup played. I think I've even seen Johnny Winter play it. Does anyone know what kind of guitar this is?

Please join me on Facebook at Rich Zimmermann Photography if you haven't already and have a good week!
