I’ve been on a real Neil Young kick of late. The more you delve into Neil Young, the more layers you find. Depth. Musically, Neil still puts out the sometimes great, sometimes horrible and sometimes challenging record. The thing is, he keeps going. And the back catalog? Holy smokes, talk about prolific.

What about the non-music stuff? Check out his website. New and ongoing projects like the Bridge School Benefit concerts, the Living With War newspaper, etc.

And then there is Linc Volt. Linc Volt is a ‘59 Lincoln Continental that is being retrofit with a diesel/electric hybrid engine in that will get 100mpg. Then they are gonna film a trip across the US making only two pit stops for fuel. Amazing.

Here’s a quote that really resonates from his bio, Shakey:

I love nature. To me nature is a church.

It was this exact sentiment that gave birth to one of my music alter egos, The Reverend Screaming Fingers at dawn in the Black Rock Desert, Nevada, 1996.
