I'd say either Bob Dylan or Brian Jones of the Stones....

Me too! Neil Young's voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me (and I've never forgiven him for "Southern Man").

Don't worry another band paid him back. Who was it? (bunny question)
 
And still anothern....this legendary delta blues singer and guitarist is NOT from the Mississippi Delta.....can you name him and where he is from?

Led Zep just released a new compilation today. All songs are remastered. It's awesome.

Robert Plant recently released a cd with a multi-grammy award winning artist - who is it? (current pop culture points)

Which band immortalized a groupie named Connie, and in which song?

Grand Funk Railroad. We're an American Band. Sweet sweet Connie was doing her act...

Who produced the song?

Lost that round while posting! :rolleyes:
 
I've been a gigantic CSN fan since 1969. Last month I attended a terrific concert with Graham Nash and David Crosby (and Crosby's long lost son), so my interest in them remains strong.

Still, Neil Young towers above CSN. When he was with the group the material was stronger. Listen to that reunion album they released: American Dream. The Young written material is simply awesome. The rest of it is somewhat pedestrian, I'm afraid.

Last year a movie called "Heart of Gold" was released covering a Neil Young concert in Nashville. Roger Ebert named it one of the top 10 movies of 2006. (I happen to own it and watch it regularly---also it's currently appearing on some of the Encore channels from time to time this month).

Neil does folk. He does rock. He does grunge. (Listen to "Piece of Crap" for example).

I just can't stand by and see Neil Young besmirched on this website. He is one of the most important musicians of the last half century.

Not only that, I like him.
