Today is Graham Nash's 74th birthday. Born in Blackpool, England on February 2, 1942, he is a musician, songwriter, political activist and photographer, and is a dual citizen of The United Kingdom and the United States. He was a member of the British group The Hollies, before joining with David Crosby and Steven Stills in 1968 to form Crosby, Stills and Nash (also known as Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young when joined by Neil Young.) In addition to singing, he plays the guitar, keyboard, drums and harmonica.
Click on the links below to hear some of Graham Nash's greatest songs. They were all written or co-written by him, except for Blackbird, by the Beatles, and Suite Judy Blue Eyes, which was written by Steven Stills, but is included because it captures the band's beautiful vocal harmonies so perfectly.
