For What it’s Worth…

Buffalo Springfield was an American rock band formed in Los Angeles, California by Canadian musicians Neil YoungBruce Palmer and Dewey Martin and American musicians Stephen Stills and Richie Furay. The group, widely known for the song “For What It’s Worth“,[1] released three albums and several singles from 1966–1968. Their music combined elements of folk music and country music with British Invasion and psychedelic rock influences. Like contemporary band The Byrds, they were key to the early development of folk rock. The band took their name from a steamroller parked outside their house.

Buffalo Springfield formed in Los Angeles in 1966 with Stills (guitar, keyboards, vocals), Dewey Martin (drums, vocals), Bruce Palmer (bass guitar), Furay (guitar, vocals) and Young (guitar, harmonica, piano, vocals).[2] The band signed to Atlantic Records in 1966 and released their debut single “Nowadays Clancy Can’t Even Sing“, which became a hit in Los Angeles.[3] The following January, they released the protest song “For What It’s Worth“.[1] Their second album, Buffalo Springfield Again, marked their progression to psychedelia and hard rock.[1]
