Opis

Neil Young is one of rock and roll's most important, influential and enigmatic figures. This work presents a story of Young's incredible life and career: from his childhood in Canada to the founding of folk-rock pioneers Buffalo Springfield, the bleary conglomeration of Crazy Horse and the monstrous success of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.

Recenzje
