''So Far'' is the fourth album by Crosby, Stills & Nash, their third as Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and the first compilation album released by the group. Shipping as a gold record and peaking at #1 on the ''Billboard'' Top Pop Albums chart, it was the band's third chart-topping album in a row. It has been certified six times platinum by the RIAA. ==Content== The album contains five of the band's six singles to date, omitting "Marrakesh Express", all of which had reached the Top 40. It is the first release on album of the single "Ohio" as well as its B-side "Find the Cost of Freedom", and the only place both can be found on one compact disc. The other five tracks were taken from the band's two studio albums, ''Crosby, Stills & Nash'' and ''Déjà Vu'', although the other singles appear here in their album-length versions and mixes. Capitalizing on the highly publicized and anticipated reunion tour of CSNY in 1974, the album's eleven studio tracks derived from a group that had only issued twenty-two to date. Such was the demand for any sign of activity from the quartet that ''So Far'' topped the charts anyway. Graham Nash later insisted that the group was against the album's release, calling the concoction of a greatest-hits album from two LPs and one non-LP single "absurd". Young appears on four of the album's 11 songs (see § Personnel below). The remaining songs, with the exception of "Déjà Vu", also appear on Crosby, Stills & Nash's ''Greatest Hits''. The cover art was painted by the group's friend and colleague Joni Mitchell, who also wrote "Woodstock". The album was reissued on compact disc some time in the 1980s, and again on September 20, 1994, after being remastered by Joe Gastwirt at Ocean View Digital using the original master tapes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「So Far (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
