The quartet, often considered one of the greatest supergroups in music history, formed by David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Graham Nash and Neil Young, released the meaningful and powerful song that became a protest anthem of the 1970s.
Officially released less than a month after the incident, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's song captured the public's grief and anger, making it one of the defining anthems of the counterculture movement.
Recalling how Young came up with "Ohio," Nash told David Hoffman in a 1990 interview that the guitarist and former Buffalo Springfield member was moved after seeing the news coverage of the incident.

The supergroup quickly recorded the song, which was released about 10 days after the recording session.
However, the 84-year-old singer-songwriter said they “wanted to bring it instantly” as a form of protest.
The gamble paid off for Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young as "Ohio" became a huge hit, peaking at No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spending nine weeks on the chart.
