“Brain cells holding hands at this age is a challenge. But it’s a lot easier now that I’m sober”: Stephen Stills has been on the wagon for three years

Stephen Stills.

It’s safe to say that Stephen Stills has made something of a career of not being entirely on the level. As one of folk rock, country, blues and gospel's most highly-regarded singers and songwriters over the past six decades he’s seen it all, done it all, and thanks to attaining almost mythic, legendary status, is accountable to precisely no one.

But now, at the age of 80 he’s perhaps more focussed and enjoying more clarity than he ever did during his heyday.
