Amazing After All These Years, January 29, 2008
Length:: 8:14 Mins
I've liked Neil Young and his music for almost 40 years. I couldn't like him anymore than I always have, but I like his music now more than ever. There are songs I like now that in the past I got deathly tired of, that I was indifferent to, and that I actively disliked.
Hopefully this video will give you an idea of how I feel about his music. Check out my website via my profile to see more samples of JumpRock and see how easily I think you can learn to do the same. Nothing to buy and no lessons - it's all there for free - I'm just promoting myself and my ideas about exercise and motivation.
I haven't noticed any volume problems on the lp or cd or the samples playable here. Don't know about the import.
There are still times when I'm listening to Launchcast and I think "Who's this clown?", and I turn to skip it, and it's Neil Young, so I stop and listen. (Qualifier - That's not a criticism - Neil Young can start in the most discordant place imaginable and bring out the melody and make the most awkward phrasings work by extending a syllable or whatever in a way that doesn't seem feasible until you hear it. But sometime when it first catches me off guard - I don't think - hey, that's Neil Young - I just hear the discord.). Anytime it's Neil Young, you should do the same. You may still not like it, but maybe you just haven't heard it enough times or for enough years.
