Neil Young’s horrible voice is a disgrace to my ears.
To: Deplorable American1776
My theory is, since Neil’s fanbase tends also to be leftist, he has to keep his “bonafides” with them.
As I recall, in the 80s he actually had some positive things to say about Reagan, and took some heat for it. So next thing you know, he’s writing songs about a “kinder, gentler Machine-Gun Hand.”

“Live Rust” is one of the greatest live albums ever. Too bad it was made by a commie fool.

He means well. To disabuse him of his fantasies would be a chore.

Is there cut off either of the albums that I might remember?
I have followed Neil’s career closely and own or have given sincere listens to all of his releases. Any new music from him after 1980 is highly suspect. Here are the only post-1980 releases I would recommend (other than his relatively recent releases of archived pre-1980 material):
Broken Arrow
Chrome Dreams II
Freedom
Harvest Moon
Prairie Wind
Psychedelic Pill
Ragged Glory
*********************************
Thanks for the info. I will listen to those of these I can find on YouTube.
So, he has done some legitimate, creative work. I stand corrected!

Of a vintage that I grew up listening and following the music side of artists and the obvious lines in their music. Never paying attention to all the words as it was not common to see the total lyrics. Like the stones Keith Richard he can make that the catch of many of his songs. In that regard Young , to me a very good guitarist and wordsmith , but always a lone wolf 🐺 as regards his career and like many performers oblivious to how he should just shut up and sing and not be a social crusader
To: patriotspride
I admire good guitarists and good wordsmiths. I am an amateur musician.
I never would want to rely on any of the above for life lessons, nor for political opinions. Why is this so hard for Neil (and many others) to comprehend?

Neil Young’s family of friends here in Port Townsend are perplexed. We love Neil, and pray for him to get well. He doesn’t need the stress. He and Daryl should buy the “Ragland” back and take a nice mellow sail around the globe and stay out of the fray. Write some new songs along the way, then come back to us.

I hope he gets well and can resume a peaceful, happy life, soon.
I have a good many friends who do not think politically like I do. I know who they are, and I make a point not to discuss politics with them. Nothing is to be gained. I can still love them as the good persons they are, and feel fortunate to be their friend.

I always consider the enlightened insight of a drug addled has been who's singing sounds like a bagful of cats and broken glass tossed down a stairway. 😖
