Phenomenal one-of-a-kind handwritten track list by co-producer Graham Nash for the first five sides of the 1979 No Nukes triple live album, on 22 individual popsicle sticks, which Nash has grouped together using masking tape to represent each side of the album. Nash has written one song and its running time on each stick, including, ‘The Times They Are a’Changin’,’ performed by James Taylor, Carly Simon, and Graham Nash; ‘Before the Deluge’ performed by Jackson Browne; ‘Little Sister’ performed by Ry Cooder; ‘Captain Jim’s Drunken Dream,’ performed by James Taylor; and ‘Detroit Medley,’ performed by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, labeled by Nash, “Bruce Medley.” The sixth side was entirely Crosby, Stills, and Nash, so Nash may have sequenced it without sticks. In fine condition. Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from longtime Crosby, Stills, and Nash road manager R. Mac Holbert, who kept the sticks in his personal collection. Letter reads, in part: “Graham wrote out the title for each song on a popsicle stick, arranging the sticks in order and then taping them down on the back once the order had been determined.” The No Nukes album contained selections from the series of September 1979 Madison Square garden concerts, organized by Nash, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, and John Hall. A simplistic, yet effective, tool used to make the collective’s certified gold album. Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RR Auction COA.
