I've been a Neil Young fan ever since I found Buffalo Springfield's first album in a second hand record store. Flying on the Ground stood out as a type of song you didn't see much of in the mid 60s. It showed the dark side of what was going on in that era. From there I got into Harvest. I generally like his folk and country rock the best, but I do appreciate the passion and intensity of Crazy Horse. I've been listening to some of the International Harvesters era material circa 1983, and they were so great live even though Old Ways came out so poorly. I'll never forget what he did to Wooden Ships on this year's tour.. Neil blew me away. I love how he's always reinventing himself and not getting stuck in that 'oldies' trap like so many others from the 60s.
