Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, Graham Nash reviews and discusses the “Ohio” single, CSNY’s 1970 tour, and their first break-up (of many) with commentary and stories. Discograffiti’s Wild Tales: The Graham Nash Interview Series tackles every last release the great Graham Nash ever had a hand in creating, including CSN/Y, C&N, and his solo career, detailing a history almost too wild to be believed.

Here’s just a few of the many things that Graham discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

The 1968 night during which Graham smoked some hash and managed to write three classic songs (in The Director’s Cut only);
CSN’s one rule as a group by which they lived (in The Director’s Cut only);
The early CSN band members who fell by the wayside while they were coming together as a group in Sag Harbor (in The Director’s Cut only);
The 9-week, 3,000 mile boat journey Crosby & Nash took before the release of Deja Vu;
How the $7 million 1970 tour broke down in chaos;
The batshit crazy way that Fuzzy Samuels managed to cope with the chaotic tone of the 1970 CSNY gigs;
How “Ohio” happened;
The Fillmore East show during which Stills pulled out the stops to showboat for Bob Dylan, who was in the audience;
How CSNY initially broke up;
And an in-depth deep dive on Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young’s “Ohio” 45 and Four-Way Street double-live LP!
