Before playing their final show on 5th May, 1968 at the Long Beach Sports Arena in Southern California, Buffalo Springfield released three studio albums on ATCO during an intense, two-year creative burst.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe band was that first album and it was never captured again,\u201d states Buffalo Springfield co-founder, Richie Furay. \u201cThat album represented the five of us together in the studio. After that it started to fall apart. It got worse with the next two albums. There were a lot of people being used other than the five of us.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are songs and demos from guys who are part of your life, \u2018cause people make bands a part of their life. Then, there are those fans and collectors who can say, \u2018Wow! I can get another charge now, not just hearing \u2018For What It\u2019s Worth\u2019 for the 20th time.\u00a0 Or not just hearing a new mix of one of the songs. There\u2019s something new for me to grab on too<\/p>\n
