Kurzbeschreibung
This book analyses the recorded work of rock music icon Neil Young.Neil Young is an icon, plain and simple. "The Words and Music of Neil Young" follows the evolution of Young's musical work from the late 1960s to the present, with special focus on the enduring elements that have made his music successful. Neil Young cannot be simply labelled. He has recorded as a solo artist, as a member of a hard rock trio, and with numerous other musician configurations. He can move from the soft sounds of early 1970s acoustic folk to the distorted, fuzz guitar sound of Crazy Horse. And his compositions have responded to musical trends from punk rock to grunge, and to social issues like racism, the Vietnam War, and war in Iraq as well.Individual chapters cover Young's musical output album by album, and song by song - from his debut work with Buffalo Springfield, to his time with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, to his solo work within various genres and for various causes (some political, but all artistic). In his conclusion, author Ken Bielen sums up Neil Young's accomplishments and places his work in the context of contemporary culture. A discography and bibliography round out the work.

THE BEST THING ABOUT THIS BOOK IS THE COVER PHOTO!
13. April 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Maybe I expected all the lyrics. (The book is too small to have all the music sheets.) Having all the lyrics would've been a big plus. But all the information the author needed to write this book was all the albums and the liner notes - and that's about all you get, besides some guessing as to what Neil means in some of his lyrics. There's no interviews with Neil, his band members or studio musicians -none of that. There may be a tidbit of information here and there tossed in. But that's it. If you are a big fan of Neil Young and have the recordings anf the liner notes, then you have this book. And being the intelligent listener that you probably are (by listening to Neil in the first place), you've already thought about what the lyrics mean - you certainly won't find any answers in this book. Maybe I should toss off one of these books, this one seems to have been very easy to write. A bunch of liner notes and some speculation as to what the lyrics mean. Has anyone written The Words and Music of Kinky Friedman yet?
