I am a man I live alone
Don't much bother me. It won't be long
Come a woman who wants to be near
Me and my mountains, we'll be right here
Colorado

Way back east in the dirt and smog
Courted a woman she had a job
Didn't want to leave her adopted home
Guess she was afraid of bein' alone in
Colorado

Way out yonder in tinsel land
Look around hard you might find a real man
Dark-eyed country girl, tears in her eyes
Needs the music of the wind in the pines
Colorado

Many's the time that I've gone astray
The things I'm thinkin' I seldom say
Guess I'm waitin' for that special girl
The one who loves me and loves my world
Colorado
Colorado

There's Steve Stills 1, Steve Stills 2, two Manassas Albums, several compilations, and the UBER-fab  Super Sessions with Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper.

This may be the best Steve Stills album .  His band is talented and tight, and recording in Miami (Criteria Studios) must have been the bomb in 1971.   The band was staying nearby, and was summoned whenever the mood struck, getting the ideas on tape before the magic faded.

There are several really nice cuts on this double-disc album.  If I remember it accurately, the album notes and photos were pretty cool, too.

I had this album many, many moons ago and loved it. Haven't hear it in a long time.  Thank you rp.
Underrated band I thought.

Totally agree with you Kurt. This album actually helped me get the girl way back in my HS dazes. If Stills could have kept making albums as good as this one perhaps Neil Young would have had some keen competition as time marched on...
