Buffalo Springfield is a compilation album released on Atco Records in 1973. It is the fifth album by the rock band Buffalo Springfield, and their second compilation. It was assembled by the label well after the band had broken up at a time when Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young were both quite popular and had not released any new material as a group for over two years, with their 1974 reunion tour eight months away in the future. It features a nine-minute extended version of the song "Bluebird" by Stephen Stills still unavailable elsewhere, including on the 2001 box set. It has never been issued on compact disc in North America, and is currently out of print.
