4.0 out of 5 starsIt could easily be seen as a cash grab by Atlantic Records

This is a hard one to figure out. It could easily be seen as a cash grab by Atlantic Records. On the other hand its nice to have all these great songs in one place. The real mystery is song selection. CSN has been together for about 45 Years, with a grand total of five studio albums of which only three albums were used for this greatest hits album, they also used a couple of cuts off of Deja Vu, a CSNY album, I guess Neil Young had no contributions to the songs selected. With so few good albums to work with it just barely has enough to cover a single greatest hits album. All but two songs are to me true classics but 49 bye-byes and In My Dreams don't belong on any greatest hits album. They easily could have used 4+20 or maybe War Games off of Allies,an out of print mostly live album or You Don't Have To Cry or even Camera off of After the Storm not exactly a classic but it would have given the album more of a updated and varied feel to it or even left those two songs off completely. Oh well, its still a great album all the great CSN songs are on it. Looking forward to CSNY Greatest Hits.
