Stephen Stills

As a member of the Stills-Young Band. After the Timelords, the duo became The KLF. As a member of Crosby, Stills, and Nash (and Young). The Manual was re-released in 2002 with a new introduction. As a member of the Buffalo Springfield. The Timelords released one other product, a 1989 book called The Manual or How to Have a Number One the Easy Way, a tongue-in-cheek guide to scamming the music industry written by Drummond, a former music industry manager and A&R man. As a member of the Au Go Go Singers. A more prosaic explanation for the name comes from the Time Lords, an alien race from the planet Gallifrey in Doctor Who.

Solo. A photograph of the vehicle appeared on the sleeve of the Doctorin the Tardis single (the car was also credited for the song itself) and was prominently featured in a number of the group's music videos. In 2000, Stills was an Al Gore delegate from Florida during the Democratic National Convention. Cauty and Drummond claimed the car then spoke to them, giving its name as Ford Timelord and advising the duo to adopt the name for themselves. CSNY has long been associated with liberal causes. According to group members Jimmy Cauty and Bill Drummond, the Timelords came about after their purchase of an American Ford Galaxie police car (which had allegedly been used in the film Superman IV filmed in the UK). In 1997, Stills became the first person to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice in the same night for his work with CSN and the Buffalo Springfield. The song is a mix of Gary Glitter's Rock and Roll, The Sweet's Blockbuster and the Doctor Who theme with sparse vocals inspired by Doctor Who and Harry Enfield's Loadsamoney character.Doctorin' the Tardis reached number one in the UK Singles Chart on 12 June, and also charted highly in Australia and New Zealand.

This has led to the semi-permanent CSN reunion even though all three have released solo records since then. The Timelords was the name used by UK sampling outfit The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu for their 1988 novelty pop single Doctorin the Tardis, a No.1 hit in the UK. Stills was contractually obligated to finish the tour, but he did reunite with Crosby and Nash shortly afterwards. However, Young would leave midway through the resulting tour. At one point, Long May You Run was supposed to be a CSNY record, but when Crosby and Nash left to fufill recording and touring obligations, Stills and Young decided to go on as the Stills-Young Band.

Then he switched to Columbia Records before an attempted reunion with Young. The next year, Stills teamed up with ex-Byrd Chris Hillman and several CSNY sidemen to form the band Manassas. It provided Stills with the hit single "Love The One You're With" as well as the concert favorite "Black Queen." Stills followed this with Stephen Stills 2, which featured "Change Partners", a metaphor for the many relationships in CSNY. Stephen Stills featured guests Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and Ringo Starr as well as contributions from other members of CSNY.

In the wake of CSNY's success, all four members recorded solo albums. Despite several breakups and reformations, CSN (and sometimes CSNY) still records and tours to this day. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, CSN and CSNY was one of the few North American groups to rival the Beatles in popularity. Neil Young would be added for their second album, and the group would become Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young.

During the disintegration of the Buffalo Springfield, Stills would join up with ex-Byrd David Crosby and ex-Hollie Graham Nash to form the supergroup Crosby, Stills & Nash. Soon Stills' playing would show the influence of his friend Jimi Hendrix and also sometimes the rhythms and riffs of various kinds of Latin music. Early on, it would display sources in generic rock'n'roll, blues, and country music, as well as the chordings familiar in the acoustic-folk music scene. Stills' guitar playing continually evolved.

The band would release three albums (Buffalo Springfield, Buffalo Springfield Again, and Last Time Around) and one hit single (Stills' "For What It's Worth") before breaking up. Years later, Stills, Furay, and Young would meet up in Los Angeles and form the core of the Buffalo Springfield. Main articles: Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills & Nash (and Young). On the VH1 CSNY Legends special, Stills would say that at that time, Young was doing what he always wanted to do, "play folk music in a rock band." The Au Go Go Singers would break up shortly afterwards.

This group would release one album and embark on a tour of Canada where Stills and Furay would meet a young guitarist named Neil Young. Stills eventually ended up in a nine member vocal harmony group called the Au Go Go Singers where he met Richie Furay. He was in a series of unsuccessful bands including the Continentals, which featured future Eagles guitarist Don Felder. Stills dropped out of the University of Florida to pursue a music career in the early 1960s.

He was also influenced by Latin music after spending his teenage years in Costa Rica and the Panama Canal Zone, where he graduated high school. Moving around as a child, he developed an interest in blues and folk music. Stills was born in Dallas, Texas on January 3, 1945 to a military family. Stephen Stills is an American guitarist and singer/songwriter best known for his work with the Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young (at first it was Crosby, Stills and Nash; Young joined the group after their first album).
