It was recorded 1980-1981 at Rudy Records, Devonshire Sound and Sea West and released on June 21, 1982 by Atlantic.
The album peaked at #8 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart, the final time the band has made the top ten to date. Three singles were released from the album, all making the Billboard Hot 100: "Wasted on the Way" peaked at #9, "Southern Cross" at #18, and "Too Much Love to Hide" at #69. It was certified platinum by the RIAA.
The genesis of the album lies in recordings made by Stephen Stills and Graham Nash at intervals in 1980 and 1981 and the album was originally slated to be a Stills-Nash project. They employed Art Garfunkel, Timothy B. Schmit, and others to sing in place of where David Crosby might have been. Executives at Atlantic Records, however, had little interest in anything but CSN product from any member of the group, and held out for the presence of Crosby, forcing Nash and Stills to start paying for the sessions out-of-pocket. They began to turn toward the company's point of view, however, and decided to invite Crosby to participate at the eleventh hour.
Crosby brought two of his own tracks to the album, "Delta," where Stills and Nash squeezed their vocals into Crosby's already-taped multi-tracked harmonies, and "Might As Well Have A Good Time," which received the bona fide Crosby, Stills & Nash treatment. Most of the recording, however, features other voices in addition to the main trio, a first for any CSNY record, as is the number of outside writers. The song "Daylight Again" evolved out of Stills' guitar-picking to accompany on-stage stories regarding the South in the Civil War, segueing into "Find the Cost of Freedom," which had been the b-side of the "Ohio" single in 1970.

Daylight Again
Crosby Stills & Nash Lyrics
Daylight Again Daylight again Following me to bed I think about a hundred y…
Delta Waking Stream of consciousness On a sleeping Street of dream…
Into The Darkness Into the darkness soon you'll be sinking What are you doing…
Might as Well Have a Good Time There are windows on the water Lighting up the silver strand…
Since I Met You Since I met you In the time it takes to count…
Song For Susan If anyone wants to know where to find me I'll be…
Southern Cross Got out of town on a boat goin' to Southern…
Too Much Love to Hide Can I sing a song to the woman Take a look…
Turn Your Back on Love Is this a prison Or do you call it love?…
Wasted on the Way Look around me, I can see my life before me Running…
You Are Alive When you know there's someone you can talk to And she's…
We also have lyrics for these tracks by Crosby Stills:
Southern Cross Got out of town on a boat goin' to Southern…
TURN YOUR BACK ON LOVE Is this a prison Or do you call it love?…
Wasted On The Way Look around me, I can see my life before me Running…

on Unequal Love
Saw Graham Nash last week in Gateshead, he sang this song.
Absolutely beautiful, possibly about his love for Joni Mitchell.
His voice still amazing
