 A document of their tour from the previous year, the live recordings presented were taken from shows at the Fillmore East (New York, New York) on June 2 through June 7, 1970; The Forum (Los Angeles, California) on June 26 through June 28, 1970; and the Auditorium Theatre (Chicago, Illinois) on July 5, 1970.At the time this album was recorded, tensions between the band members were high, with their dressing-room fights becoming the stuff of rock legend, even being referenced by Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention in their 1971 LP "Fillmore East - June 1971".The tensions led to CSNY dissolving shortly after the recording of "4 Way Street"; they would reconvene for a stadium tour in the summer of 1974.
