Once again, here's James Files favourite song by his hero Willie Nelson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0z09JMSDPY&hl=nlJimmy's Road lyricsSongwriters: Nelson, Willie;This is Jimmy's roadWhere Jimmy liked to playThis is Jimmy's grassWhere Jimmy liked to lay aroundThis is Jimmy's treeWhere Jimmy liked to climbBut Jimmy went to warAnd something changed his mindThis is the battle groundWhere Jimmy learned to killNow Jimmy has a tradeAnd Jimmy knows it well too wellThis is Jimmy's graveWhere Jimmy's body liesWhen a soldier fallsJimmy's body dies and diesWell this is Jimmy's roadWhere Jimmy likes to playThis is Jimmy's grassWhere Jimmy likes to lay around

Here is a tune that CSN&Y did at Woodstock, but this version has David Gilmour of Pink Floyd fame with Grahm Nash and David Crosby... (superb version, even without Stephen Stills)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-Y0SMitMpk

I was two years old in 1969 so it was a long way from rural SC to NY, however, in my adult life I have seen The Who, the Grateful Dead with Jerry Garcia, and John Fogerty from CCR from the performers that day. My top three who I have never seen who performed would include Jimi Hendrix, The Band, and CSN&Y.

John...I never saw Hendrix either, although my older sister did. I saw the Band once and have seen variations of CSN&Y several times. The first time I saw CSN&Y was in 1974, when they played a concert with the Beach Boys. What a great concert. I've seen Neil Young more times than anyone in CSN&Y, but I have also seen just CS&N alone as well a few times. I also saw the Stills/Young band. However, without a doubt the band I would have like to have seen the most were the Beatles. My sister saw them, and I went with her to the hotel they were staying in, but alas, I never saw them play live.Here are a couple of my favorite tidbits of early CSN&Y...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jxs0ybn ... re=related
