On This Day, Jan. 3, 1945 ...
Stephen Stills, best known for his work with Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills & Nash and Manassas, was born in Dallas, Texas.
Stills has written such tunes as “For What It’s Worth,” "Sit Down, I Think I Love You" and "Bluebird" for Buffalo Springfield, and “Carry On” and “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes” for CSN.
"Love the One You're With," from his 1970 self-titled solo debut, was Stills' biggest solo hit, peaking at #14 on the Billboard charts. The tune features his CSN bandmates David Crosby and Graham Nash, and Rita Coolidge on background vocals.
Stills has been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice, as a member of Crosby, Stills & Nash and Buffalo Springfield. Both inductions took place in 1996, and he is the only artist to be inducted into the Hall of Fame twice in the same night.
