Neil Young w/ Bert Jansch

Few songwriters have a richer legacy than Neil Young. After springing to countercultural superstardom with the folk-rock groups Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Young launched an enormously successful solo career, trademarking his ragged, melancholy folk-rock in the early ’70s, then paving the way for grunge and ’90s alternative-rock with his feedback-heavy ’80s records. He’s remained prolific in the past decade, releasing politically and environmentally charged albums like 2003’s Greendale, 2006’s Living With War and last year’s Fork in the Road. In May, Young embarked on a North American solo tour to promote his upcoming Twisted Road, playing a mix of older songs and new material on both acoustic and electric instruments.
