Buffalo Springfield (1966) Buffalo Springfield Again (1967)

Buffalo Springfield is the self-titled debut album by folk rock band Buffalo Springfield, released in 1966 (see 1966 in music). It was originally released in both mono and stereo versions as Atco (SD) 33-200, but when the single "For What It's Worth" became a hit, the album was re-released as Atco (SD) 33-200A and added "For What It's Worth", but dropped "Baby Don't Scold Me". "Baby Don't Scold Me" has never been reissued in stereo: all CD releases feature only the mono mix. The band was generally unhappy with the sound of the album and felt that it didn't reflect the intensity of their live shows.
