STEPHEN STILLS / JUDY COLLINS

Fifty years ago, singer-songwriter Stephen Stills met singer-songwriter Judy Collins, known for her piercing, ocean-blue eyes. Their tumultuous love affair would later be immortalized by Stills with his composition “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes,” performed by Crosby, Stills & Nash on their landmark debut. Both artists would go on to shape modern music with visionary approaches, but Stills and Collins’ short fiery union remains a transformative era for the two artists.
