neil_bob_eric


Not that we really needed any proof, but here are 50 reasons why Neil Young is the second most influential singer-songwriter of the 20th century still performing today.

And not that one ever really finishes a website, but at this point we can safely say that Thrasher's Wheat is nearly complete. It's taken almost 10 years of collecting Neil's collaborations to put together this page of links. Whew.
