Five months ago, all-star ensemble Crosby, Stills & Nash joined a Spotify boycott by longtime friend and colleague Neil Young.
The folk rock superstar had accused the music platform of spreading dangerous misinformation about Corona through podcaster Joe Rogan.
As the music magazine Pitchfork reports, the trio has now ended its boycott.
In a statement, Graham Nash said that Spotify has taken an important step forward by now linking podcasts dealing with Covid-19 to relevant information pages.
According to Nash, future income from Spotify calls should go to charity projects.
For Neil Young, this measure is apparently not enough.
His music continues to be almost completely withdrawn from the Spotify catalogue.
Joni Mitchell, who has been artistically and privately associated with Young and Nash since the 1960s, continues to refrain from making her songs available via the streaming service.
An interesting blossoming in the on/off relationship between the Woodstock icons and Spotify: individual tracks are still blocked on the joint albums that Crosby, Stills and Nash once recorded with Young.
