It angers me to no end when someone has the gall to suggest that Neil was not the definitive creative genius behind Buffalo Springfield. The rest of the band could sing and play but simply did not have the creative chops to write the kind of lyrics and deliver those lyrics in such a unique way as Neil, which is what made this band a powerhouse. Evidence? “Broken Arrow”, “Burned”, Do I Have To Come Right Out And Say It?”, “Down to the Wire”, “Expecting to Fly”, “Flying on the Ground is Wrong”, “I Am a Child”, “Mr. Soul”, “On the Way Home” … Enough said! This band would simply not have been considered great, let alone wildly influential, without Neil’s brilliance and creativity!!!

Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. It is your solemn responsibility to decide which cover song prevails. In other words … Which Side Are You On!??!
