That could be my local cd store, I honestly think that they order one of every thing Neil comes out with knowing that I will show up.... I was there on release day for "Praire Wind", they had one.... the "Greendale" dvd, they had one..... I will find out Monday how many LWW they have...

Hey Thrasher: There was a reference to Neil on the Sopranos last night! Tony was making fun of his sister Jancie's husband who is a model train enthusiast for playing with trains as an adult. Janice said "what about Neil Young?" and Tony sharply replied "He owns Lionel!" A fantastic reference to Shakey on the best television show ever.

I first got hit with "Who's Neil Young" about five years ago by a young technician in the hospital when I told her that's what I was listening to on my headset while staying with my ma after surgery. I said "I knew it had to happen sometime". It's happened three or four times since then. Mostly I sak then if they have ever heard "Heart of Gold". Some of them haven't, but one said "Oh, that guy!" Curiously enough, many of my younger friends know who he is because "my dad has a bunch of his records." The "awesome stuff in my dad's record cabinet" experience seems to be fairly common. There was this black guy named Hendrix or something, WOW, could he play. Stuff like that.

THIS CAUGHT MY EYE,
MY 14 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IS A TRUE FAN OF NEIL YOUNG. OF COURSE, SHE'S HEARD HIS MUSIC ALL HER LIFE.. I'VE RAISED HER, LISTENING TO MY FAVORITES.. THEREFORE, HER TASTE IS DIFFERENT THAN MOST 14 YEAR OLD KIDS, SHE'S TOTALLY A HIPPY KID WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC.. 60's & 70's & SOME 80's..
HER MUSIC TEACHER, IS AMAZED WITH HER KNOWLEDGE OF "THE GREATS" & RELIES ON HER FOR ANSWERS..
THE TEACHER DRAWS A BLANK... & CALLS ON MY DAUGHTER FOR MOST ANY TRIVIA IN "MY" ERA.... IT'S GREAT THAT SHE LOVES THE "GOOD" MUSIC & I'M VERY PROUD.. HOWEVER, AT TIMES, I WISH HER INTEREST HAD GROWN IN MATH AS IT HAS WITH HER MUSIC.. LOL!!!
