Nobody, but NOBODY, plays guitar solos like this man.  Nobody.  Before you were even born.   {#Notworthy}

I had the pleasure of seeing Neil with Booker T and the MGs in SF.

Ho m'Lord !!! A better time could not have been had. Indeed :-)

Hello Cowgirl in the Sand.  Can I see your sweet, sweet smile?  Some of Neil's best three-note guitar solos ever recorded!

Wow, flashback; 1980 to Rampart's Creek Hostel in the Canadian Rockies.  Snow, woodfire, mushrooms and making love.

I've often dissed the latter-day NY.  This cut and most of this album are God-like.

I went to school with Neil Young.  If that doesn't say son of a hippie then I guess the prize went to the girl in the year below called Rainbow Waterfall Something or other.

This song is a test as to how much noodling I can take in any one sitting. I'm beginning to feel like Kobayashi.

As much as I love Neil Young's music, I have to say that I think this kind of comment is off-base and comes off as being patronizing. Maybe someone has listened with their heart, and heard nothing interesting; a song can have different effects on different people, and if someone isn't moved by a song, it's not that person who is to blame.

I guess to go from the last track straight into Powderfinger would have been a little too "on the nose".

Agreed.  Neil is so good with Crazy Horse.

I think this should be billed as Neil Young AND Crazy Horse. That band contributed a lot to this album.
