CSN

The picture on this cover is the "laughter photo": Joel Bernstein photographed the trio in serious poses aboard a boat, and initial copies of CSN bore that picture on the cover. The next picture Bernstein took of Crosby, Stills, and Nash was a shot of them breaking into laughter at the thought of just having posed as "serious artists." The trio later decided that they liked the second photo better, and it was decided that all future pressings of CSN should bear the "laughter photo". The cover is textured, and the cover photo is pasted on. One hype sticker says "Made in the USA - QualityRecordPressings.com". Another hype sticker bears the Atlantic75 logo and states: The 75th anniversary of Atlantic Records 75 historic titles hand-picked and supervised by Analogue Productions CEO Chad Kassem Mastered from the original analog tapes of best available source by the mastering engineers Cut at 45 RPM and pressed on 180-gram heavyweight vinyl First 2000 copies are numbered on the back of the jacket and pressed at Quality Record Pressings.
