BBC 4 tomorrow evening at 10pm Neil Young documentary 'Don't Be denied'.

Neil really is one of the true greats of rock music. Even though he's turned
yet again a little bit native I can forgive him as most of his career he's
striven to make great music that wasn't commercial at the time. Eventually
of course this was like a long term investment that really paid off as he is
now so well respected. Simon Cowell take note.

Agreed. Making simply constructed songs sound so good takes real
musical genius

One thing constantly annoys me about him is desire to make what is a 3-4
minute song last 10 minutes.

At least he doesn't use a naff drum solo to stretch them out.
