Mr Soul/A Child’s Claim To Fame/Everydays/Expecting To Fly/Bluebird/Hung Upside Down/Sad Memory/Good Time Boy/Rock & Roll Woman/Broken Arrow
Buffalo Springfield Again is considered to be the finest album from this highly influential group. It is a good example of chart placing failing to match future acclaim. (US:104)
"This is simply one of the greatest pop records ever recorded. Buffalo Springfield do it all here: rock, soul, country, experimental, etc, all with remarkable skill and flair."
"A brilliant album, the perfect mix of folk-rock and pychedelic music with many standout tracks. Buffalo Springfield along with The Byrds were the two defining folk-rock bands of all time with their unique guitar sound."
"This is one of the great rock albums of its generation. Stills and Young were burning with creativity, and Richie Furay smoothes the rough edges with his sweet southern voice. The instrumentation and production is dense enough to stand up to decades worth of listening. There are a plenty of classics on this one album - Mr. Soul, Expecting To Fly, Bluebird, Rock & Roll Woman - all with beautifully woven guitar and shimmering harmonies."
"What a spectacular explosion of talent this group had, making one of the most listenable albums of all time. Brimming with ideas, technique, harmony, melodies. A high production album with ten things happening at the same time. I go back and listen to it today and the consistent quality of each cut just blows me away. Young, Stills and Furay would go on to dominate rock music for the next decade."
"Solid psychedelic release. They demonstrate great diversity while still maintaining consistent high quality from start to finish. The lyrics are good stuff, and the band can be creative with a vast array of instruments. Overall it is very enjoyable."
"It's a pity that Buffalo Springfield only released three official albums. They were all fabulous, but this one is the most creative and consistent. It has many Buffalo Springfield classics, including Neil's brilliant Mr. Soul, Richie Furay's lovely A Child's Claim To Fame, and another Neil masterpiece Broken Arrow. But my favourite has to be Stephen Stills's Bluebird. It has some really amazing guitar picking on it."
