AN ARTISTIC SPIRIT
I have my late brother Jim to thank for turning me on to Neil Young.

Jim was a devoted fan and his enthusiastic playing and gifting of the Harvest album led me into fandom all those years ago.
Jim, who was also a writer and player at music thought Young possessed a perspective that put him into a league of his own.
Now, Young is opening up and talking a bit about his eccentric, creative and unique life.

In advance of his book Waging Peace, Young has spent time with journalists, itself an unusual act for the private troubadour.
It's not too early to be thinking about a Christmas gift of
a book for the music or Neil Young fan in your life.
Here is a vintage Young performance from the time my younger brother pointed me in the right direction. This is dedicated to Jim.
See you down the trail.
