Tag details

Neil Young is one of a handful of rock and roll artists who can truly claim the title of legend. Beginning with his days with Buffalo Springfield, through his on and off again status as a member of Crosby Stills Nash & Young (CSNY), and over the course of a remarkable solo career that has endured for five decades, Neil Young's music continues to inspire both musicians and fans alike today.

As a songwriter, Neil Young is responsible for the folk-rock classics After The Gold Rush, Harvest, and Harvest Moon. As a guitarist, his feedback-laden rock guitar assaults with occasional backing band Crazy Horse on Rust Never Sleeps, Ragged Glory, and Arc-Weld have earned him the title of "godfather of grunge." As an iconoclastic artist, he has produced such experimental (and confounding) works as Trans and Tonight's the Night.

In doing so, he has influenced a generation of rock musicians from Bruce Springsteen to Pearl Jam. Naturally, this has inspired one of the more devoted fanbases you'll find on the internet. You can find those Neil Young fans blogging away at sites like Hyperrust and Thrashers Wheat.

  • Future Neil Young


    — Authority Authority:
    It seems somehow appropriate when he climbs up on top of the coffee table to play a little solo up there, and when he jumps to the couch he doesn’t even miss a note. I can certainly see him performing the same moves from the top of a bar or while stage-diving at a concert. Better start saving up for tickets now, ...
