Manassas Symphony is paying tribute to a famous Rock n’ Roll album that used Manassas in their album art.

Ron Sharpe was a junior at Gar-Field High School in 1971 when he and his band mates were abuzz about rock and roll royalty visiting Manassas. Superstar Stephen Stills, famous already for being a part of both Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, was a Civil War buff and brought his new band to town to shoot photos for an upcoming album. The one they liked best had the band standing on the train station platform under a “Manassas” sign, and thus the band and album were named. “Manassas” is considered a rock masterpiece.
