awright,
I'm listening to a bunch of Neil Young, like Change Your Mind

" Q4music.com Reviewed by David Cavanagh:
Sleeps With Angels will remind you, in places, of After The Goldrush, Freedom, Zuma and Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere - among others - and yet it will also sound like no Neil Young album you have ever heard. That's partly because it's got a new tone to it, a sadhearted, almost religious tone. (There's none of Ragged Glory's sloppy riffing here.) And it's partly because of the array of bloody strange instruments he and Crazy Horse have selected to adorn these 12 songs.
Sandwiched between them is a genuine Neil Young & Crazy Horse masterwork called Change Your Mind. It's a case of Name That Tune when it starts, except that Change Your Mind goes on forever - longer than Down By The River, whose marvellous extended guitar solos it calls to mind; longer than Cowgirl In The Sand, Cortez The Killer and Love To Burn. After every three or four minutes of guitar solo, an angelic, religious sounding chorus comes in, then another guitar solo, until finally, 15 or so minutes later, it comes to an end."

the last one that summarizes it best -
...finally coming to the point...
"This song is about living in a van. Duh."

Splater,great post.
But what would be wrong about living in a van?
I like the "sloppy riffing"

It boggles the musical mind to imagine if those two had hooked up and raised a family band.
I've always thought Jimi Hendrix and Barbara Lynn bore a striking resemblance to one another---and they were both left- handed guitarists to boot, and both musically gifted.
I would bet money on a very close DNA match.

Beth looks good for her age. Sounds good too.
Hey Joe, where you gonna run to now?
Rare glimpse of Jimi playin' upside down.
Apparently stunned the (mildly appreciative) audience.
