Welcome to this weekend’s music thread, Planet folks. I thought that it was time for a tribute to an amazing Canadian/American artist that has contributed such a vast amount of great music to the world. If any singer, musician and song writer deserves
a tribute, it is definitely Neil Young.

Pick your favorite Neil Young songs (there are so many) performed by the man himself, some of the other groups he’s been a part of, and/or your favorite artists that do Neil Young cover songs. As always, have fun doing so and don’t forget to smile! 😉

I know this thread is getting a little old, but I had to put in my 2 cents.

Neil Young is the musician that made my junior and senior years in high school tolerable. His music fit my mood and youthful anxieties about our world at the time. And even without the social commentary, his guitar playing, especially with Crazy Horse, was superb – an ebbing and flowing wail of protest. I could, and did, listen to Cowgirl in the Sand, Southern Man, Only Love Can Break Your Heart, and whole album sides time and time again.

So yes, here’s to Neil Young!

This guy seems like a brother in my travels through life. First in Yorkville, Toronto, in the early sixties ……then ‘in concert’ numerous times ……always’in the now’ ……changing …..experimenting ……BE-ing. Always ‘commenting’ on the state of life in North America through beautifully articulate songs that were often haunting in their complex simplicity. Hurrah for Neil!

I’m shocked to see that not a single person put this one up as of yet, especially in light of the road we seem destined to traverse in this nation of corruption and greed.

My favorite performer, he does so many different styles, but I like the hard rock with Crazy Horse the best, they put on two of my all time favorite concerts.
