CSN

The picture on this cover is the initial photo that was used for this album: Joel Bernstein photographed the trio in serious poses aboard a boat, and initial copies of CSN bore that picture on the cover. The next picture Bernstein took of Crosby, Stills and Nash was a shot of them breaking into laughter at the thought of just having posed as "serious artists." The trio later decided that they liked the second photo better, and it was decided that all future pressings of CSN should bear the "laughter" photo. Produced for Fat Albert Productions.

First Presswell pressing. The picture on this cover is the INITIAL Photo that was used for this album: Joel Bernstein photographed the trio in serious poses aboard a boat, and initial copies of CSN bore that picture on the cover. The next picture Bernstein took of Crosby, Stills and Nash was a shot of them breaking into laughter at the thought of just having posed as "serious artists." The trio later decided that they liked the second photo better, and it was decided that all future pressings of CSN should bear the "laughter" photo. The photo is pasted onto a lightly textured (front and rear) cover. If, like on mine, the glue is getting old, beneath the photo you'll see a grey, non-textured space, slightly smaller than the photo. Produced for Fat Albert Productions.
