During the latter part of , Stephen Stills, who was a prolific songwriter at the time, began sessions at Criteria Studios in Miami for what was initially intended to be his third solo album. He recruited a stellar roster of Laurel Canyon musicians to work on the sessions. The remarkable chemistry of the musicians that Stills had assembled was so strong that it became obvious that this unit could become a full-blown band.
With a double album completed and despite not having a name, the group embarked on a brief tour. Outside a train station in Manassas, Virginia, a photo was taken of the entourage, giving birth to the band's name and supplying the album cover. The group also featured the talents of multi-instrumentalist Al Perkins another ex-Burrito Brother on second lead guitar and pedal steel and veteran session keyboardist Paul Harris.
The group rapidly became one of the most exciting and versatile bands of the era, equally comfortable with rock, blues, country, folk, bluegrass or Latin flavored jams and playing all extremely well. With such an inspired group of musicians and a wealth of material from which to draw upon, the group's concerts were often marathon affairs.
Winterland (San Francisco, CA), 10/07/1973
The basic format was to perform two electric sets that focused on the best of the Manassas material with a few choice older gems thrown in for good measure with an acoustic set that often featured Flying Burrito Brothers material in between. When Manassas took the stage on October 7, on the final night of their Winterland engagement, they had no idea it would turn out to be one of their last performances.
