Young reformed Crazy Horse with Frank Sampedro on guitar as his backup band for Zuma (1975).
Many of the songs are overtly concerned with failed relationships, and even the epic "Cortez the Killer," outwardly a retelling of the Spanish conquest of Mexico from the viewpoint of the Aztecs, can be seen as an allegory of love lost — something that didn’t save it, however, from being banned in Franco's Spain.
The following year, Young reunited with Stephen Stills for the album Long May You Run (1976), credited to The Stills-Young Band; the follow-up tour was ended midway through by Young, after having sent Stills a telegram that read: "Funny how some things that start spontaneously end that way. Eat a peach, Neil."
