Stephen Stills

Stephen Stills è nato a Dallas, Texas, il 3 Gennaio 1945. Sin dall'infanzia ha la possibilità di viaggiare molto, la sua famiglia si trasferisce spesso in Illinois, Costarica e Cuba, e questo gli dà la possibilità di sviluppare influenze musicali assai diversificate, una musicalità e un talento poliedrico. Risulta evidente sin da bambino, quando impara a suonare molti strumenti: pianoforte, chitarra, batteria e percussioni. Le esperienze rilevanti per Stills iniziano con gli Au Go Go Singers insieme a Richie Furay, ma è l'incontro con Neil Young la vera e propria svolta nella sua carriere. Si narra che Stephen, durante un ingorgo del traffico nel 1966 a Los Angeles, riconosce alla guida di un carro funebre un tizio che ha conosciuto in Canada: è Neil Young che si porta dietro il suo amico e connazionale Bruce Palmer (bassista) per tentare la fortuna in USA. I quattro, con l'aggiunta di Dewey Martin (batteria), si uniscono nei Buffalo Springfield, la vera "culla" di Stills ("For What It's Worth", "Four Days Gone", "Special Care", "Uno Mundo").

Scioltosi il gruppo, Stills contribuisce al formarsi di un'altra pietra miliare del rock: Crosby, Stills & Nash, che tra il 1969 e il 1971 (con talvolta l'aggiunta di Young) regalano al mondo un nuovo stile di rock westocastiano. Stills è autore di "Helplessly Hoping", "Suite Judy Blue Eyes", "Carry On", "4+20".

Frattanto, come gli altri membri del supergruppo, Stills coltiva una propria carriera solista. Nel 1970 esce Stephen Stills, album in cui è facile intuire l'ecletticità del suo autore, che spazia fra blues, gospel e country-rock. Senza sbavature, è quasi una summa della musica rock del periodo (non a caso vi prendono parte tantissimi musicisti, tra cui spiccano due nomi: Eric Clapton e James Marshall Hendrix), interpretata da un musicista tecnicamente eccelso ed un performer assolutamente sorprendente, con una voce in grado di passare da dolci melodie a graffianti blues.

Il disco ha un'inaspettato successo arrivando immediatamente fra i primi dieci della classifica di Billboard; brani come "Love The One You're With" e "Black Queen" rimarranno nel suo repertorio per sempre.

Stephen Stills 2 arriva a ruota nel 1971. Più meditato, meno spontaneo e "grezzo" del primo (sebbene anche qui vi siano illustri ospiti), ha meno riscontro di pubblico malgrado la presenza di brani diventati dei classici, come "Change Partner", "Word Game" e "Singin' Call".

A questo punto entra in scena un nuovo progetto capitanato da Stills, al cui fianco si pongono Chris Hillman, Al Perkins, Dallas Taylor e altri: i Manassas.

Nati in circostanze fortuite (Steven invita Chris Hillman dei Byrds a suonare nel suo nuovo disco e la session va così bene che i due decidono di dare vita a un gruppo), già dal loro primo album, intitolato semplicemente Manassas, è evidente che oltre all'affiatamento tra i componenti si è di fronte a un fenomeno musicale destinato ad influenzare parecchie altre band successive. Il successivo album, Down The Road, e il tour confermano ulteriormente la grandiosità, soprattutto live, della band, che purtroppo si scioglie subito dopo (forse per il fare dittatoriale di Stills?). I Manassas possono tranquillamente collocarsi fra i capiscuola del genere musicale tipico della West Coast. Nel 2009 è uscita una raccolta di rarità, Pieces.

Dopo la reunion di Crosby, Stills, Nash e Young nel 1974, inizia un periodo non eccezionale per Stills, per svariati motivi personali e per via dello scioglimento dei Manassas. Nel 1975 comunque Stills pubblica un nuovo album, intitolato solo Stills, che forse è il migliore a tutt'oggi ("As I Come Of Age", "My Favourite Changes", "Turn Back The Pages", "Myth Of Sisyphus"). Dal tour degli States scaturirà un album dal vivo, Stephen Stills Live, che lo vede accompagnato da musicisti di assoluto livello (Donnie Dacus, Russ Kunkel, George Perry e Jerry Aiello).

Il successivo Illegal Stills non raggiunge lo stesso livello. La parentesi della Stills & Young band (con Neil Young, da cui un tour e l'album Long May You Run) inizia e finisce in fretta nel 1976. Nel 1977 CSN, capolavoro del trio, include "See The Changes" e "Dark Star" di Stills. Esce nel 1978 Thoroughfar Gap, con la partecipazione di Andy Gibb (il fratello "piccolo" dei Bee Gees) ed un accenno "disco" con "You Can't Dance Alone".

Negli anni 80 il sound di Stills, così come quello dei compagni, inizia a "snaturarsi" finendo per rovinare idee interessanti. Ne sono un'esempio i lavori di CSN (Daylight Again, Live It Up, American Dream) e Right By You, nuovo album di Stills (1984), che utilizza la tecnologia digitale. Al disco partecipano vecchi amici come Chris Hillman e Jimmy Page, con il quale Stills duetta in tre bellissimi brani: "50/50", "Flaming Heart" e la title track.

Nel 1991 l'album Stills Alone torna a un'atmosfera acustica, poi inizia un periodo di silenzio da solista che si rompe soltanto nel 2005 con il controverso Man Alive!. Gli anni recenti lo vedono sempre in tour con Crosby, Stills & Nash (nei primi 2000 anche diverse reunion di CSNY), fino a un nuovo progetto rock-blues, The Rides, insieme a Kenny Wayne Shepherd e Barry Goldberg. Di questa formazione escono due album: Can't Get Enough nel 2013 e Pierced Arrow nel 2016.
