The
#BuffaloSpringfield Bluebird story is awesome!! The long version was actually released on a double album greatest hits early 1970s, just not sure if it’s same version you have! Btw Charles L from WBCN is a legend, some of his old shows are on the web.https://youtu.be/55q2rRh5UUU2 replies 0 retweets 1 like -

The mix on the 1973 collection is different and shorter. All details plus a link to the mix Charles sent me in 1971 here, though unsure if the link still works:https://donzblog.home.blog/2019/01/23/buffalo-springfields-1967-bluebird-acetate/ …

Ok, the link to the track still works. I forgot that I had updated it.

Thanks for all your amazing archival work. Pretty cool WBCN sent you that tape after you sent them a letter. Btw, here’s another long version of Bluebird, interesting production notes in the descriptionhttps://youtu.be/0gJMj8tWDbs

If it doesn’t include Neil Young’s deleted track (and this mix doesn’t), then not interested. :)

I will need to compare the track you posted with this one on YouTube. How do you know Neil is not on this one, just curious.

Because I listened to the relevant passage. I don’t mean to suggest that he’s not on the released mixes at all, only that his guitar part was edited out of a specific passage. You’ll clearly hear it on the mix I was sent.

Thanks for the addl info. I will need to listen to all the various extended versions to compare. Your release is about 30 seconds longer than the version that came out in 73 on atco BTW, did you ever see
#BuffaloSpringfield live? If so, where (big fan over here)!pic.twitter.com/K4FZkbZFFX

Never saw them live. I did subsequently collect (maybe) all of the available boots. Some time ago I put together every known version of “Bluebird,” both studio (including the truncated single) and live, for my own amusement.
