Stephen Stills 1970 Portrait, illustrated here, age 25 at his home in Laurel Canyon, CA in 1970.

Stills is an American singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist best known for his work with Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.
Stills’s solo career and bands have combined sales of over 35 million albums. Stills was ranked number 28 in Rolling Stone’s 2003 list of “The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time” and number 47 in the 2011 list. He became the first person to be inducted twice on the same night into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. According to Neil Young, “Stephen is a genius.”

Born in Dallas, TX, Stills was raised in a military family, he moved around as a child, and developed an interest in blues and folk music. In the early 1960s, he played in a series of bands, including the Continentals, which then featured future Eagles guitarist Don Felder.

In 1966, Stills, Richie Furay, and Neil Young reunited in Los Angeles and formed the core of Buffalo Springfield. The band would release three albums: Buffalo Springfield, Buffalo Springfield Again, and Last Time Around, and enjoy only one hit single, the Stills-penned “For What It’s Worth” before disbanding.

At a party in Laurel Canyon, Crosby was introduced to Graham Nash by a mutual friend, Cass Elliot (formerly of the Mamas and the Papas), and Nash found himself soon joining in singing with Crosby and Stills. Renditions of the latter’s “You Don’t Have to Cry,” led to the formation of Crosby, Stills & Nash.

Stills was involved with musician Judy Collins from 1968 to 1969 and wrote the song “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes” for her.

In late 1971, Stills teamed up with ex-Byrd Chris Hillman to form the band Manassas.

Greatest hits: “For What It’s Worth”, “You Don’t Have To Cry”, “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes”, “Helplessly Hoping”, “Wooden Ships”, “Carry On”, “Black Queen”, “Change Partners”, “Love The One You’re With”, “Find The Cost Of Freedom”, “It Doesn’t Matter” and “Dark Star”.
