The album features an array of well-known artists. Backing vocalists included David Crosby, Graham Nash, John Sebastion with Eric Clapton, “Mama” Cass Elliot, , Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and Jimi Hendrix. with also Rita Coolidge and CSNY drummers Dallas Taylor and Johnny Barbata. It provided Stills with the hit single “Love The One You’re With.” Stills followed this up with Stephen Stills 2, which featured “Change Partners.” Even though the song was written before CSN formed, Nash saw it as a metaphor for the many relationships in CSNY.
