We got here more than 3 hours of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young music. They were the headline act of the "New York Summersault '74", a concert that was held on a racetrack located in the town of Westbury and gathered a crowd of around 75,000.
Jesse Colin Young opened the event followed by The Beach Boys and Joni Mitchell that also sang with CSNY in several of their songs.

It was Sept 8, 1974 a month after Nixon resigned. It was a really hot steamy day, enormous crowd, it was jam packed. A lot of us spread out on the middle grassy section had thoughts of how it must have been somewhat like this at Yasgur's farm 6 yrs before. The music, the vibe, the smell of grass pervaded your senses all day - it was fantastic. It was in fact, our Woodstock.
CSN&Y played for almost four hours! Joni Mitchell joined with them along with her segment. They were great, they did not disappoint. The Beach Boys, Jesse Colin Young played earlier. But the best by far was CSN&Y.
I'll never forget the announcement overhead that Pres Gerald Ford had pardoned Richard Nixon a low rumble of "boo" spread through the crowd. We knew then "I'm not a crook" Tricky Dick would never come to justice. It made thier playing of "Ohio" all the more poignant. This day epitomized my memories of that time... the politics, the war, the counterculture, and oh the music... all came together in that mass of humanity that warm summer evening. I'll never forget it.
I was 22.
I was there, just graduated High School. We hitch-hiked from Da Bronx. I was blown away on two tabs of acid, lots of weed and wine smuggled in wine bags (remember them?). They were not allowing cans or bottles inside. If anyone has pictures of the flagpole area, center of crowd, I'd love to see if i could find myself....
I cannot get the uploadable page to offer me the file. It just goes to more bullshit ads. Any help?
Cannot get file. Uploadable keeps putting up ads that don't allow me to get the file.
