11. Helpless - Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young Just listened to that last weekend. Brings me back......
The best math you can learn is how to calculate the future cost of current decisions.

Great stuff Rog, although I have a feeling that could be a steel guitar rather than a violin on Helpless, and here is a classic live version with neither: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2z7LXpAX3QI'll be back to grab 4 or 5 if they're still around tomorrow...

Here is some (?) erudite and intellectual debate on it going well beyond my ken: http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/csnys-helpless-whos-playing-what.364830/ (I see that one mention is of "violining guitar") 5. The Band - Rag Mama Rag I have at last also identified 1 which had been bugging me, but although 10 and 12 are familiar I am still struggling...!

Yes to both! OK - thanks for all that - v. interesting. Looks like it's done either by using the volume control to create swell or by actually bowing the strings. Would imagine that's difficult with the relatively flat fingerboard most guitars have (So much for Googling "hits using violins")
To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

I should have known that (although it was a bit sneaky having two tracks from the Stones!). 1. Buddy Holly - It doesn't matter anymore
