The song is from "so far' don't know why they show a CSN album without Young.

The man wanted to do a re-shoot of the cover due to positioning of the group. Left to right it is Nash, Stills then Crosby. They wanted to do a re-shoot to have them in CSN order. Got the shoot all together but the house was torn down the following day. Clearly they were able to pull it off.

I have no idea how I know that.

While I like many of their songs, and love their singing, Wooden Ships is a unique case, where I actually like the guitar work.
Generally, I don't like the way any of them play electric guitar. But, there's some really cool ideas & tones one this one.
