Despite his successes as an innovator and inspiration to other musicians and songwriters, Neil Young has refused to be typified or even pinned down, restlessly changing styles and directions through a career spanning nearly 50 years. British music journalist, critic, and television presenter Colin Irwin here gives us a splendid photo album of Young's life and work in those decades, with expressive images—some filling two pages—and his own incisive commentary, portraying Young from the early days of the Buffalo Springfield in the mid-1960s through his solo albums of the 70s, his thundering explorations of the 80s, his return to his roots in the 90s, and his continuing exercises in "growing old disgracefully." |
