Neil Young is on rock n roll fire: touring, various archive projects (Sugar Mountain), starting a YouTube royalties debate (see below) and a new album (Fork In The Road), which comes on the heels of 2007's Chrome Dreams II. Fork in the Road, Young's 33rd studio album, is out April 6th. A couple months back Young entertained with a no frills video for the title track. The next single "Johnny Ma...
An update on that Neil Young Looks You Straight In The Eye & Talks About His Potbelly post. Uncut is reporting that "Fork In The Road" is not just any song off Neil's forthcoming new album, it's the title track. Wow. In one week we get news of a new Neil Young album and new video. But seems news of a new Neil Young album is bumming some Young die-hards as its postponing the long awaited, alr...

We've all heard the expression "You're toast!" Well Neil Young and Crazy Horse are refusing that a 2000 San Fransisco recording session succumbs to the saying. Back during what Young's Web site calls the "Dot Com boom" Crazy Horse walked themselves into an old studio, also called "Toast," to record some songs. They turned out crappy, and after months the group only managed to finish up one song...

Neil Young's 1959 white Lincoln Continental MK IV convertible only got 9 miles-per-gallon. That's all changed now. Young teamed up with Johnathan Goodwin, a Wichita, Kansas-based mechanic people refer to as the "motorhead messiah," to transfor his 19.5ft, 2.5-ton ride into an eco-friendly car that'd even make Willie Nelson jealous. But the pair didn't settle for runnin' on biodeasel. Y...

Young says it started off as a DVD concept, but he wasn't pleased with the navigation options of DVD technology, stating: "I thought DVD would be good enough, but you couldn't navigate around materials whilst listening to the music, and I thought that ...
To start things off...I certainly don't think so. I came across "this article":http://crawdaddy.wolfgangsvault.com/Article.aspx?id=6660 today on Crawdaddy.com that basically compares My Morning Jacket and their frontman Jim James to Neil Young. How flattering, considering James in a recent "Spin cover story":http://www.spin.com/articles/james-gang explained how much Young's Harvest influenced h...
