Welcome to
Music Monday
This week’s feature is another long-time favourite,
my fellow Canadian,
Neil first shot to fame as a founding member of 60s band, Buffalo Springfield:
When Buffalo Springfield broke up, Neil went out on his own and also formed a new band, Crazy Horse:
In 1969, Neil hooked up with Crosby, Stills & Nash.
He insisted on full billing, so they became Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young:
Continuing on with his solo career, Neil produced many hits over the years,
including this timeless Rock Anthem:
In 2012, Neil reunited with his old band Crazy Horse, to produce two albums.
The first, entitled “Americana”, put a new spin on old American folk songs.
The second was a concept album, “Psychedelic Pill”:
I was fortunate enough to score tickets to his show last November. Another one crossed off the Concert Bucket List.
His energy and enthusiasm belied his age, (68), and we had a fantastic time!

Hi Pauline; Glad you enjoyed the Neil Young material. 🙂 His two new albums are fascinating! Happy Wednesday. (Must be night where you are, now.)
I love Neil Young! He is a true classic. I recently listened to his double album “Decade” and was reminded again how great his songs are, and what a wonderful rock voice he has! Thanks for this post.
He is amazing, although I have to say, his voice doesn’t thrill me. His music sure does, though! ♥ That concert was one of the highlights of my concert-going life. Thanks for visiting, Elaine. 🙂
Haven’t heard any Neil Young’s songs before so all new to me. Thanks for sharing & Happy Music Monday x
Thanks for visiting! 🙂 Just checked out your new releases post. Deep Purple – fabulous!
You picked some awesome music! Haven’t heard these songs in a long time. It’s good to have a place I can come and listen to these great hits!
Thanks for sharing these Debbie, have a great day and wonderful week!
Glad you enjoyed it, Corina! This is a new weekly feature. Thanks for visiting and you have a good one, too! 🙂
Never been much of a Neil Young fan…However, being a native ‘Buckeye’ and a peace-loving hippie of the sixties, I was always very fond of–and very troubled by “Ohio”! And thanks for the Pinterest pin-up! You rock!
Hi Loy; Thanks for visiting, even if Neil isn’t your taste. He’s an icon around here. 🙂 Yes, “Ohio” was a troubling, but good song. Have a great week!
Excellent collection, I loved Neil Young’s album Harvest
Have a musictastic week and thanks for stopping by 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it, Steve. 🙂 Have a great week yourself!
