I'm Still a Virgin Things This Record Nerd Will Never Miss

"The Buffalo Springfield's Neil Young." YES, yes indeed!

Love this.

This is a recent reissue of the first Neil Young LP, Neil Young, and I'm sure the sticker is replicating the sticker found on first issues of Young's LP. On the first run of the LP, there was no mention of it being a Neil Young album—only the colorful psychedelic illustration. As a record nerd I gleefully squealed when I saw the Springfield nod. Young was in the Buffalo Springfield prior to going solo, hence the reference, tho now most everyone prolly knows who Young is, in 1968 they'da known the Buffalo Springfield, so the record label included the sticker.

Wow, Thanks for breaking that down for us.
Seriously, who doesn't know this? Wasn't one of "Neil's biggest hits" really a Buffalo Springfield song?

@2 - exactly which "hit" are you referring to?

Hmmmm. Who doesn't know The Buffalo Springfield - Neil Young, Richie Furay, Stephen Stills, Jim Messina ?????? And.......where did they go & where did they come from ? Neil Young ( solo ) Furay & Messina ( Poco ) Stills ( Crosby, Stills & Nash ) Loggins & Messina, Crosby ( The Byrds ) Graham Nash ( The Hollies )......Souther, Hillman, Furay,....Manassis.............There is an incredible history stemming from The Buffalo Springfield and beyond. But I thought EVERYONE knew this stuff. And of course...we all do.
