One of my favorite greatest hits LPs of all time was and is Buffalo Springfield's Retrospective. Many an idle summer day in 1970 and 1971 was spent listening to every track on the album, summers that seemed to stretch out into infinity ... at least as I remember them, during what I call the "giant years" (which included 1968, 1969, and 1972) because they moved so slow and lasted so long. Life should have been so kind all the way through.

One of several tracks on the LP I could never get enough of listening to: "Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing." I never fully understood what it all meant, but it sounded so good and so right, and was emotionally moving to hear. I suppose I have not progressed much in my understanding since then regarding this beautiful song. Take whatever meaning it may for you, this is my spin, right or wrong, not that it matters.

Before the song appeared as track number 4 on the self-titled debut album Buffalo Springfield (released on December 5, 1966), it was released twice on singles. Recorded July 18, 1966, it was originally a B-side to the single "Go and Say Goodbye." Too late distributors and producers realized "Clancy" should have been the A-side and re-released the single that way. Unfortunately, as a result, it only charted on Billboard at #110 in August 1966. It doesn't matter in the long run ... time and reflection, retrospection if you will, have proven it to be among Neil Young's greatest classic folk rock compositions.
