I’ll admit I wasn’t the biggest fan of Neil Percival Young, (born November 12, 1945) he is a singer-songwriter, producer, and filmmaker. il was maybe in my late twenties when I really started listening to him Young, was originally a member of the band Buffalo Springfield. After he moved to Los Angels from his hometown of Toronto, Canada he released two solo albums with his backing band Crazy Horse In 1969, he joined Crosby, Stills, Nash and they changed their name to Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young. Despite being in several bands Young is mostly known for his solo work, his guitar skills, and deeply personal lyrics are paired with his signature tenor singing voice Young frequently combines folk, rock, and country in his music. Over the course of his, career Young has received several Juno and Grammys. In 1995, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was a solo musician. And again with Buffalo Springfield In 1997. Young has worked with various artists throughout his career. Outside of music Young has directed(or co-directed) films under the name Bernard Shakey. Young has done charitable work here in the States and Canada. Some call him has the “ Godfather of Grunge”. I guess because of his sound and his “ despondent” songwriting. I did realize he was so humorous and down to earth until I saw him to a bit with Jimmy Fallon on his show. Neil Young is one of the artists I had to go back and listen to really appreciate and respect his music. Young continues to make music and inspires musicians.
