Happy Birthday to Neil Young, who turns 67 today (November 12th)!!! In addition to publishing his long awaited autobiography, Waging Heavy Peace this year, Young has scored two back-to-back Top Ten albums with his side band Crazy Horse -- Americana, which was released in June and peaked at Number Four and the recent Psychedelic Pill, which just entered the Billboard 200 charts at Number Eight.

Young says that there's no real pattern to the music he records, and that the songs themselves tell him how things will go. Graham Nash says that making music with Young as part of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young has always led to fascinating results: "I love to make music with Neil. It's very different with Neil. Y'know, it's a very different band -- there's more edge, it's darker, it's funkier. It's just different."
