[F]or many Buffalo Springfield fans, it is the Stephen Stills composition "Bluebird" that was then and remains now the band's peak. Singer Judy Collins, who was ... the subject of a later Stills song, Suite: Judy Blue Eyes. Unlike the studio version -- which winds down after the instrumental break with a plaintive rendition of the third verse, accompanied by a banjo -- in live performances, the opening verses of "Bluebird" serve as little more than a springboard for an extended jam session, during which Stills, Young and Furay intertwined guitars for minutes on end. . One such "live jam" version was officially released on the 1973 compilation Buffalo Springfield (Collection), although it had previously been available on a bootleg issue of what was supposedly a Stampede recording session and had become a staple of FM radio in the late 60s and early 70s.

Buffalo summers are, in fact, one of the area's great amenities. Lake Erie is a "natural air conditioner," producing for Buffalo some of the best summer weather in the Northeast. Summers are typically sunny, clear, and mild, with daytime highs in July and August generally in the low 80s. Buffalo has never had a 100 degree reading. Such conditions are ideal for swimming, boating, sailing, golfing, and all forms of outdoor summer recreation.

Although the Buffalo Springfield was never a major commercial success, "For What It’s Worth" was a legitimate hit, and the group’s reputation would only grow stronger with the later successes of its members. Stills went on to form a band with David Crosby of The Byrds and Graham Nash of The Hollies in 1968. Young launched a solo career, but in 1969 ... reunited with Stills in Crosby, Stills & Nash, which saw the beginning of his sporadic relationship with that trio. Furay and Messina both became founding members of Poco before going on to other things. Eventually, Furay becoming one third of the Souther, Hillman, and Furay band, and Messina was one half of the Loggins & Messina duo.

I[N]side Buffalo's 1830s and 1840s homes, the side near the front door was devoted to a hall and staircase. A front parlor and a rear dining room occupied most of the remaining first floor, although sometimes there was a pantry or a bedroom downstairs. Front and rear windows admitted natural light. In the evenings, candles or oil lamps were lit in the parlor, and members of the family worked, studied or read around a common table. The second and third floors had bedrooms, each of which included a chamber pot and basin, since bathrooms did not yet exist.
