Crosby, Still & Nash chose Tokyo to debut new songs last week.
Even though they were half a world away in Tokyo, Japan, Crosby Stills and Nash still had help from home as Jackson Browne joined the trio on stage at the Tokyo International Forum.
CSN opened their 2015 World Tour on Thursday night with a show that mixed some of the best from their days as a trio and quartet with Neil Young along with some of their solo works. The first set contained not only CSN music but solo work from Graham Nash, the collaboration of Crosby and Nash, Steven Stills’ side project The Rides and his original group Buffalo Springfield.
Set 2 moved into a bit different territory with a cover of Bob Dylan’s Girl From the North Country followed by the surprise appearance by Jackson Browne on his own The Crow on the Cradle. There were also two previously unrecorded David Crosby songs and one from Graham Nash.
