''Déjà Vu'' is the first album under the supergroup Music/CrosbyStillsNashAndYoung, and the second album by the first three musicians together. It was released on March 11, 1970 through Creator/AtlanticRecords. After the successful release of ''Crosby, Stills & Nash'', the eponymous group sought a fourth member, and under Ahmet Ertegun's recommendation was referred to Stephen Stills' former Music/BuffaloSpringfield bandmate Music/NeilYoung. It was released to strong sales, at seven times Platinum according to the RIAA, to date the highest-selling album for any of the members.

Supported by four singles: "Woodstock", "Teach Your Children", "Our House" and "Carry On", the first three of which were Top 40 hits.

* ImportantHaircut: Crosby's "Almost Cut My Hair" concerns a hippie/counterculture type who nearly gets his hair cut to avoid being harassed by the cops, but ultimately changes his mind and decides to be true to himself by "letting my freak flag fly".
* TheInsomniac: The narrator of "4 + 20", written by Stills:
--->''Night after sleepless night''\\
''I walk the floor and I want to know''\\
''Why am I so alone?''
* SpecialGuest: Two session musicians Dallas Taylor (drums) and Greg Reeves (bass) were credited in slightly smaller type font on the cover for playing for most of the album.
