Buffalo Springfield Again is a moody album. Some songs are ecstatic and hopeful while others seem sad and reflective. As a result, there's a mix of heavy rock and roll with some poweful riffs and lead guitar work and country-sounding folk songs. And there's Good Time Boy which breaks the mould and could have just as well have been on a James Brown album.
Most of the album works well together. Good Time Boy and Broken Arrow, while great songs, seem out of place.
I really like Buffalo Springfield. Stephen Stills has such a pleasant voice and Richie Furay has one of the most powerful voices I've ever heard. I also really like how the songs sound. This is something that carries over to Crosby, Stills and Nash (and Young), Stephen Stills' solo work and Neil Young's solo work. Broken Arrow has a really haunting sound.
While all the songs are wonderful, Mr. Soul, Bluebird, Hung Upside Down, Good Time Boy, Rock & Roll Woman and Broken Arrow are the stand outs.
★★★★★★★★ ☆☆
