Who are The Stills & why are the listed on CSN&Y releases?

Hello all, @Jack_Parks , @Rockhound , @Michael_Curtis , @David_Gibson @wkimbel87

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. A metadata error like this one can be particularly frustrating and perplexing, especially on such a prominent and anticipated reissue. (Cracking anniversary release by the way; the demos, outtakes, and alternate versions really sell this one in my opinion - not to mention the remastering work! The interaction between Gram and Neil on the Birds demo is wonderful, and WOW, how good is David’s early demo of Almost Cut My Hair?! But I digress…)

After quite some investigation we’ve tracked the origins of this problem to the metadata found in the All Music credits for most recent 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition.

In the artist header at the top of the page you’ll notice that The Stills are erroneously credited as contributing artists. We’ve put in a ticket with All Music to have this corrected. Because this metadata error is on their end we don’t have a timeline for how fast it will be addressed. It could take a few weeks for that to happen.

Please continue to bring these issues to our attention as you find them, we appreciate you help and patience as we investigate these reports.
