Manassas was an American rock band formed by Stephen Stills and Chris Hillman in the early 1970s. They released the double album Manassas (1972) and the follow-up Down The Road (1973).

Line-up on the recordings mentioned in the reviews includes Stephen Stills and Chris Hillman, with Al Perkins, Dallas Taylor, Calvin "Fuzzy" Samuels, Paul Harris and Joe Lala. The band's name references the Battle of Manassas; the debut album spans West Coast rock, country, bluegrass, Latin and jazz influences.

Two DeBaser reviews assess Manassas' brief but ambitious output. The 1972 debut is praised as a career peak for Stephen Stills, notable for its variety (country, bluegrass, Latin, jazz). The follow-up Down The Road is seen as less ambitious but lively and danceable.

For:Fans of 1970s West Coast rock, country-rock and classic-rock listeners; followers of Stephen Stills and Chris Hillman.

 It is the triumph of the workaholic Stills, capable of transitioning with enviable polish between various genres and gifted with a refined and unique taste in arrangements.
