Hello from Bob - Bob - 13-10-2014
Hello, I am Bob. I like music, everything from Classical to the Glen Miller Band! My favorite performers are The Beach Boys with their gorgeous four part harmony. I am looking forward to learning more about other styles of music. ...God Bless, best wishes Bob

Building on and bringing into the modern, kids-oriented world of the '60's, the male and mixed harmonies of 40's and 50's groups, primarily White, primarily at least jazz-tinged http://singers.com/group/vintage-harmony/ Brian Wilson crafted a sub-genre, songs and presentation.

Hello from Bob - Big Ears - 17-10-2014
Welcome Bob. I am also a Beach Boys fan as I also like multi-part harmonies. Another favourite of mine is the Four Seasons.
Hello from Bob - CRAZY-HORSE - 17-10-2014
Crosby,Stills,Nash & Young are about as good as harmonies go IMO...
if you havent heard it and you have the money i suggest you invest in their "deja vu" album
Hello from Bob - Big Ears - 17-10-2014
^ Agreed. I am a Hollies (Graham Nash) fan too. My only CSN&Y album is So Far.
Hello from Bob - CRAZY-HORSE - 17-10-2014
i have all their studio albums as a quartet,but not this one???...im assuming its some sort of compilation,right?
im a huge fan of The Hollies(nash), like most of The Byrds(crosby)material,but not all of it...and love Buffalo Springfield(stills/young)
Nash's debut solo set is also very good, but thats as far as my knowledge of his solo work goes..
Hello from Bob - Big Ears - 17-10-2014
It was their first compilation (of singles) and you would not need it if you had the albums, except for Ohio and its b-side Find the Cost of Freedom. I always liked Ohio, since it was covered by Welsh band Sassafras, and, although some people think it is twee, Our House.
