Trying to recall a album track I've heard some time ago belonging, I think, to a solo member of CSN&Y. The member of the group talks to some street religious performers about their beliefs who then give some close harmony singing which he records as part of the album track.

Think it Stills or Young.

This query relates to a West Coast group of the early 1970s.

Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young for anyone who hasn't got a clue who I'm talking about.

Did you ever figure out the answer?

I'm intrigued. I looked at the solo discographies of each of the members of CSNY and couldn't see anything that fitted the bill. Even listened to some of them on Spotify, but nothing sounded like the description in the first post.

Any other clues?

No luck so far. I'm almost 100% sure it was on an CSNY group/solo album. He (?) records himself stopping some religious people in the street and starts off by discussing a word that encapsulates their beliefs. This is followed by close harmony singing. I remember liking the track for the vocals rather than any sentiments expressed.

At last!!!!

Saw an advert in the Sunday papers that included the word "Relativity". This immediately rang a flipping bell....very loudly.

A quick search of YouTube and bingo:

For those wondering, it's off Neil Young's (now unobtainable) "Journey Through The Past" album:

Interesting - well done for finding it. It seems the next couple of tracks in the soundtrack are Handel's Messiah and Rosza's King of Kings, performed by The Tony & Susan Alamo Christian Foundation Orchestra & Chorus, which leads to a very bizarre Wikipedia entry http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Alamo . Apparently the people Neil Young recorded were part of a religious organisation whose leader was subsequently sentenced to 175 years imprisonment for child sex offences!
