Music Monday

-

It’s another “your choice” week,   And today I am playing  the music of a man who has succeeded as both a solo artist and as a member of a famous quartet.

Yes, today’s post features music you won’t find on Spotify.  Today I am playing the music of Neil Young.

Let’s start with a few from CSNY.

This one was written by Joni Mitchell about a little music festival …

  

And here they are at Farm Aid.


  

This was a solo hit.  





More from Farm Aid



  

And we close it out with “Heart of Gold”

    Robin,

    Nice set of songs. Neil Young isn't my favorite member of CSNY band but he's an interesting choice to listen to on occasion. Thanks for sharing on the dance floor. Do stay warm, safe, and well, my dear. Have a boogietastic week!

    Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young were the pre-incarnation of the Eagles. Their rhythms and tight harmonies are very similar to Eagles. It's hard to believe that almost all of those young hippies are now in their mid-seventies. Ouch!!! I had Neil Young's "Harvest" album and found it very good back in the day. Thanks for this trip down memory lane.

    Such great songs. Love the footage of them playing at Woodstock where they nailed it.

    Neil Young was (and is) a great, whether with Crosby, Stills and Nash or on his own. You have two of my favs here, Heart of Gold and My, My, Hey, Hey. And, of course, Woodstock - I enjoyed the video with all the stills. Walking on the grounds of Woodstock this past June was definitely a highlight of 2021 for me.Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

 So you should know that I am not a “shopper”.  I live in shopping mall heaven — I’m ten minutes from the Broadway Mall,  15 from Roosevelt Field and 25 from Whitman Shoppes — but I seldom go to the mall.  I prefer to shop on line.  And when I do venture into a store, I usually know what I want and buy it as quickly as possible.  I’m not one to browse through stores just to see what’s for sale. There’s a local chain,  Baked By Melissa , that specializes in mini cupcakes.  They’re primarily in Manhattan.  A few years ago Becca introduced me to their product - delicate little cakes, exquisitely decorated, very tasty.  I walk past their shop on 7th Avenue whenever we go to the theater. Well, last week I remembered that they used to have a second shop on 7th, right next to the original shop, but selling gluten-free versions of all their cupcakes. The gluten-free shop closed, but the company continues to make a gluten-free version of their product. So I thought that gluten-free cupcakes wou

DISboards nonsense

found a new blog today. Love it. http://secret-squirrel.webs.com/index.htm I've posted there under various names over the last 10 years or so. it went from a sweet little board that was Pete Werner's hobby to ....well, a real nightmare. that a board devoted to all things Disney can be such a nasty, racist, childish (not childlike) place.... loving the inside scoop, though. Did I ever tell you how "songbird" was banned from the DIS? I was a poster in good standing for 3-4 years. Even booked my trips through Dreams Unlimited, back when Pete was careful to distinguish between the disboards as a hobby and Dreams as his business. Pete and Webmaster Alex were struggling with server issues, the disboards would go down more often than they'd stay up. then Pete announced cosmetic changes to wdwinfo.com, which feeds into the disbaords forum. Like all other members of the forum, I was frustrated. so I was a bit sarcastic. I posted something to the effect of "would yo

Another “your choice” week. How about new music from icons of the 60’s and 70’s? Let’s start with Jimmy Buffett’s posthumous hit, “Bubbles Up”. The Rolling Stones released a new song in 2023, it’s called “Angry”. The surviving Beatles (with some  help from AI) released “Now and Then”. And then Billy Joel …    The AI effects in the video blew me away… A note about the AI effects … the Beatles used it to isolate John’s vocals on an old demo.  Billy Joel had a young man play the piano then superimposed his own face onto the image of the younger man.
