With songs like 'For What It's Worth,' 'Suite Judy Blue Eyes,' 'Teach Your Children' and 'Love the One You're With,' Stephen Stills is a fixture on lists naming the greatest rock songs. Despite that praise, he isn't a fan of the countdowns. "I don't pay any attention to those lists," he tells Spinner. "I think those lists are purposeless." Case in point -- Stills says he couldn't...

From Steady Bloggin ': " Hooray for bootlegs. The cover is self explanatory – this is a compilation collecting the original sources used by Large Pro in creating Breaking Atoms. Naturally the main target demographic here are the sample nerds.

Or the strange fascination God’s people have with the world they’re in.

But there were sublime, even transcendent, moments on the first night of the 25th Anniversary Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Concerts at Madison Square Garden (they will air on HBO starting November 29). Also some surprises: We’ve...
