Agreed, great musician, esp. guitarist, somewhat poor voice though, and an asshole. Fuck Neil Young!
I'd disagree. His voice was whiney, so you're spot on there. Guitar play was average. Maybe a good songwriter like most of how country music is built, though Young would be considered Rock I suppose.
Get a writer and a chiseled dude or chick with a rack and have them perform what you wrote. That's what Neil Young is. He's a song writer and not a performer.
During the Mirrorball live tour he outperformed Pearl Jam live by 1000x - he is one of those guys who can keep rocking with one or two broken strings and still sound great. I'd say good songwriter and guitarist, and pretty good live performance. Still an asshole, but many if not most leftoid hippies transformed to the authoritarian left during their lives as they got older, wealthier and more scared of life.
David Crosby gets the "Asshole Narcissist" crown from the Laurel Canyon era, with Stephen Stills and Neil Young honorable mentions. Maybe Neil is still competing.
Seriously, the first time I ever heard the name Neil Young, it was on MTV sometime in the late 80s. He was singing some whinge blaming Reagan or Bush (I forget which) for Homelessness.
I said to myself "What a smelly Old Hippy Fart, this guy is totally bogus."
Age 0-40: Who the fuck is Neil Young? Was that some Pin Up Girl from the 50s? Age 40-50: Oh, that Old Hippy who had that song about Homelessness. Def Leppard and Poison blew that old fart bogus shit away. Age 50+: Oh yeah, forgot about that guy.
"You're supposed to be more famous because you're dead, but you aren't. Joe Rogan is a huge draw, which you aren't. That's two aren't's so go fuck yourself, Neil."
Spotify is desperately calling Mannheim Steamroller to restore its last shreds of dignity. Mannheim are threatening to withdraw their Christmas albums.
The CIA uses 'Puff the Magic Dragon' played over and over with flashing lights to drive MKUltra subjects insane for further programming. It works better than Inna Gadda Vida.
Of interest is Young sold 1/2 his catalog last year to a (Blackstone Group backed) company called 'Hipgnosis' for 150 mil. Some are saying that Blackstone is trying to come at Spotify and more "owned" artists will follow Young's lead. Blackstone is The Beast of Babylon.
Glendale was him thumbing his nose at the Fly Over White folks
Not 'Glendale' (Greendale) I was talking about an even worse album, 'The Monsanto Years'. It is a one note album (like his one note 'leads', you say?) ALL about his disdain for Monsanto. Yes, a whole freaking whole album criticizing an agribusiness conglomerate. Shoot me.
Wow! I guess they didn't TM their name. What a perversion.
Hipgnosis was an English art design group based in London[1] that specialised in creating cover art for the albums of rock musicians and bands. Notable commissions included work for Pink Floyd, T. Rex, the Pretty Things, Black Sabbath, UFO, 10cc, Bad Company, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Scorpions, The Nice, Paul McCartney & Wings, the Alan Parsons Project, Genesis, Peter Gabriel, Electric Light Orchestra, Rainbow, Styx, and Al Stewart. - Wiki

That was the last I thought of him until today.
I hit the city and
I lost my band
I watched the needle
take another man
Gone, gone, the damage done.
Age 40-50: Oh, that Old Hippy who had that song about Homelessness. Def Leppard and Poison blew that old fart bogus shit away.
Age 50+: Oh yeah, forgot about that guy.

BREAKING: ANOTHER ARTIST RUMORED TO JOIN NEIL YOUNG LEAVING OVER JOE ROGAN
Kinda how like Rolling Stone Magazine should just be named "Dylan Forever", or Starbucks "Norah Jones Cafe"
As a thank you for your support, you can choose Mannheim Steamroller Christmas 1996, or Peter, Paul, and Mary Neverending Tour for Yuppie Ex-Hippies.
if Joe Rogan isn't cancelled.
