The Rides : Can't Get Enough review and studio video from Stephen Stills supergroup

It’s like TV’s New Tricks, with veterans being dragged out of retirement to shed new light on cold guitar cases.

CSNY legend Stephen Stills, Electric Flag’s Barry Goldberg and relatively young blues guitar gunslinger Kenny Wayne Shepherd rock out on self-penned Mississippi Road House and unlikely covers of old mate Neil Young’s Rockin’ In The Free World and The Stooges’ Seek And Destroy.

When they rock, there’s enough edge to keep things credible and, hell, they sound like they’re having a great time.

It’s when they slow down that, although the musicianship is impeccable, things start to get staid, showing their age.
