To those who'd slag off Graham's writing, I'd point to
Critical Mass/Wind on the Water (to the last whale). Magnificent
work, and ditto the arrangement.

And when someone comes up with something like 'Teach Your Children'
that becomes a sort of anthem to an entire generation, well, I'll
chalk the negativity up to jealousy.

While we're at it, shall we talk about fantastic vocal talent,
along with high-register longevity that is second to none? Over
the years, it's always been a gas to watch him jam his hands
into the front pockets of his jeans and belt out those ringing
high parts that just about define the CSNY sound.

The complexity of the arrangements (not to mention that they
did a lot of them under great chemical influence) are pretty
amazing.
