Buffalo Springfield started with a chance meeting of Stephen Stills and Neil Young; later, Stills and his friend Richie Furay were driving along Sunset Boulevard in L.A. and spotted a hearse.  Stills was sure that it was Young’s, and sure enough, it was.  Neil Young had another Canadian in the hearse as a passenger:  Bruce Palmer.  These four formed the band with drummer Dewey Martin.
