Giveaway – Stephen Stills’ Manassas-Pieces Album

On September 30th, 2009

Manasas_Pieces_CoverStephen Stills has influenced generations with his powerful voice, song writing artistry, and passionate guitar playing, both as a solo artist and as a member of Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, and Manassas. The album Pieces reveals snapshots of Stills’ early days with a 15-song collection of unreleased recordings from sessions for both of the band’s albums. After recording his second solo album, Stills formed Manassas in 1971 with a talented group of musicians that included Chris Hillman, a former member of the Byrds and The Flying Burrito Brothers. Manassas released two albums, 1972′s eponymous double-album debut and the 1973 follow-up, Down The Road. The album Pieces features alternate versions of two songs from Down The Road: “Do You Remember The Americans” and “Lies” (featuring guitarist Joe Walsh). The collection also includes the legendary group’s unreleased performances of “Sugar Babe” and “Word Game,” a pair of songs Stills recorded in 1971 for his second solo album. The remaining tracks include “Like A Fox,” a song recorded with blues guitarist Bonnie Raitt on background vocals and the Latin-tinged “Tan Sola Y Triste” (Spanish for ‘So Alone and Sad’).

I find the album easy to listen to while working or driving.  The Stephen Stills songs bring back memories of my youth and the pleasant times of being with friends.

Screenhead has Manassas – Pieces available for give away. Post your name and we will pick the winner Wednesday, October 28, 2009.

    I loved Stephen Stills back in the day. But I saw him in concert w/ Crosby, Nash and Young a couple of years ago and his voice was completely gone. He still plays a mean guitar though.
