Music Friday: "Don't Let It Bring You Down"

I haven't listened to Neil Young in a good while. 

He's gotta be one of my top 20 favorite musical artists. 

One of my favorite albums of his is After the Goldfish, and this fine tune comes from that great album. 

Music Friday: "Don't Let It Bring You Down"

I hadn't listened to Neil Young in a good while. One of my favorite albums of his is After the Gold Rush, and one of my favorite songs on that album is "Don't Let It Bring You Down."

If you want to anger the members of R.E.M. and Neil Young, just have some GOP candidates play their songs at rallies. 

"R.E.M. to GOP Presidential Candidates, Go F@#$% Yourselves" gives the lowdown on all that. 

In their honor, I offer these two tunes for Music Friday. 

Music Friday: "Harvest Moon"

I've had the Neil Young Unplugged album playing in my car today. 

And since it's fall and all, I thought I'd share "Harvest Moon."

Music Friday: "Don't Let It Bring You Down" Times Three

As many of my friends know, I'm a big fan of Neil Young. And the song featured today is on of my favorite albums of his, After the Gold Rush.

It's hard to beat the original, but I found the covers by Cowboy Junkies and Chris Cornell to be good renditions, so I'm sharing those too.

And if you're a fan of Cowboy Junkies, they released a new album on Tuesday. It's entitled Wilderness. From what I learned from Paste's review of the recent album, the new album is part four of the band's four-part Nomad Series. From the description of the four parts, I think I might have to pick up volume 3 because it's described as "the fuzzy, raucous one."
