Buffalo Springfield

In May 1968, when Buffalo Springfield performed their last concert at the Long Beach Arena, they had recently released their third and final studio album, "Last Time Around," in July 1968. This album showcased the band's evolution, featuring contributions from all members, particularly highlighting the songwriting talents of Stephen Stills and Neil Young. Interestingly, the group had already begun to disband by the time of this concert, with tensions brewing among its members. This performance thus serves as a poignant farewell, encapsulating the band's influence during the burgeoning rock era. Notably, the live recording captures the raw energy and unique harmonies that characterized their sound, as well as the band's struggles during a period of significant change, both personally and within the music industry.
