Neil Young has been making albums since 1968 and is more in the public eye today than he has ever been. His influence is clear on the music of many of today's new bands such as Pearl Jam. His latest album, "Harvest Moon", is hailed by many as his best yet and he has gained a whole new generation of fans whilst keeping those who have followed him for years. Young has always been out of step with mainstream rock, unfazed by trends or demands. His sojourn with Crosby, Stills and Nash (with whom Young temporarily regrouped in 1988), saw his most creative period, although his almost maniacal solo output has never been less than interesting. In this book the author tracks the long career of the Canadian born singer including details of his involvement with Crosby, Stills and Nash and also Pearl Jam. His live performances are listed in some detail and his career is documented with scores of colour and black and white photographs.
I've been a long time of Neil Young fan. What is great about this book is the photos there are some very good ones. Another nice feature was the backround stuff. It would be nice to see an up to date one (2nd Edision.) I would recomend this for the die hard collector. Keep On Rockin Rick Glenn

An excellent outline of Neil Young's career (with photos)
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is excellent for die-hard long-time Neil Young fans such as myself. It is essentially a chronological outline of Neil Young's musical career, with some narrative and many photographs interspersed with the outline. It starts at the begining of his musical career and ends at 1994, when the book was published. It also includes a discography. It is printed on high-quality glossy paper. The majority of the photos are black and white, but with a significant minority of the photos in color. It's fascinating to follow the twists and turns of Neil Young's career and his music. The outline tells when Neil Young recorded each of his songs, and it lists every concert he ever played by city and date. The narrative helps to expand on the outline and to move the story along. Highly recommended for serious Neil Young fans.
