:( One of my favourite bands, shared the bill with the Beach Boys a couple of times didn't they?

Seems like a larger than average number of musicians have died in the past year.

Well I don't think a reunion was ever in the works of late. It never got as far as this (from the Uncut article): On the song “Buffalo Springfield Again”, from his Silver & Gold album [2000], Young sang of how he’d “Like to see those guys again/And give it another shot.”Young's always busy, he's finally got his "Archives" boxset lined up, as well as a new album with Crazy Horse, and Stills is working on a new covers album with Crosby and Nash (Rick Rubin's producing, from what I've heard it may even include a Beach Boys tune). Richie Furay's a pastor these days and occasionally records new music himself. So like it says, with Palmer and Martin both gone now, the book's closed permanently.

He liked Jim Messina-but never really accepted him in place of Bruce (Bruce had a number of problems in the 60s and was in and out of the Springfield-as was Neil-on the last big Apr 68 tour with the BBs-Bruce was gone and Jim Messina played) By the way the BS played with the BBs on the Nov 67 Thanksgiving tour, a short Pacific Northwest tour in early 68 and the Apr 68 tour (mostly of the South). During these tours Neil developed something of a friendship with Dennis
