Neil Young FAQ
Neil Young - BOOK - by Glen Boyd
(2012)
Neil
Young has had one of the most remarkable careers in the history of
music. He hasn't just outlived many of his contemporaries a some of whom
were great inspirations for him ( From Hank to Hendrix as one of his
own songs says); his artistry lives on through those he has inspired
(Pearl Jam Radiohead) and he remains relevant and vital well into his
fifth decade of making music.THYoung also continues to crank out records
at a rate that would kill most artists half his age. Between his solo
and live albums and his work with Buffalo Springfield and Crosby Stills
Nash and Young his remarkable career has spanned well over 50
albums.THAlthough he has experimented in genres from syntho-pop to
rockabilly Neil Young is best known for the fully cranked feedback-laden
noise he makes with Crazy Horse (Rust Never Sleeps and Ragged Glory)
and the more introspective folk-pop (Harvest).
The
glue that binds his work together is the songwriting. Because when it
comes to writing great timeless songs Neil Young has few equals.THE Neil
Young FAQ is the first definitive guide to the music of this mercurial
and methodical enduring and infuriating icon. From the Archives to Zuma
and from the Ditch Trilogy to the Geffen years this book covers every
song and album in painstaking detail-including bootlegs and such lost
recordings as Homegrown Chrome Dreams Toast and Meadow Dusk.Obscure
facts and anecdotes from the studio to the road along with dozens of
rare images make this book a must-have for Young fans.
