Wow. Who remembers this show. Its great that people have archives of old shows like this in decent enough quality that they can be uploaded. I love finding old gems like these on the internet. Its like walking into a time machine and seeing a part of you that you forgot all about.
Hamburg is in Germany. Then there were different usings for ,,Fritkadelle". Wendy, McDonalds, NORDSEE, Burger King, and frozzen at ALDI, LIDL, Penny and so on. Now, my question ist: Are you ever eating a Hamburger? Sorry. Its late.
@Daycron66 have you thought about what he just said in the interview? Maybe, just like any FREE person can do, choose not to do something. It's called choice. peace to all free thinking indies. The springfield died in '67..get over it. (damn good band - until Again wrapped up)
I love thousands of music artists, but maybe, just maybe, Neil Young has the most interesting, the most pleasureable, most satisfying (for himself and his admirers) and most idiosyncratic and anti-obvious lifework of them all. To steal from Todd Rundgren, he's a "Wizard a true Star". Yes, sir!
@11xzxzxz "A shyness thing?" I think not. Just a simple case of wanting more privacy, given all he gives in time for all those humanitarian projects you mentioned and probably still, after all these years, still having people who want more from him, in the way of one more act of compassion by playing this or that benefit.
No, Neil has more than 'paid,' for his privacy as I see it.
@rockinroller7 Hey that was 3 months ago and I was stupid then. And I change my mind daily as I'm Shakey. And he does a lot of humanitarian work but those who worked with him often will tell you he is obstructive and obtrusive when dealing with people. Neil admitted this on the David Letterman Show in a way ..its on YT. And in Shakey I found that people thought he was difficult to deal with .. I never thought that before . Anyway he has changed a lot after recovering from a brain aneurysm
@11xzxzxz Oh, you mean, you were so much older then, you're younger than that now, lol!
My interpretation of Shakey and those who may have found Neil difficult to deal with is simply that Neil is uncomfortable dealing with people, perhaps being awkward socially, and in business matters, as he wrote of in songs in the early days, having to deal with record companies, and contracts.
@rockinroller7 Yeah dats what i mean. I meant Neil was not really nice to people in his bands back them or people on the streets or to his wife or to Carri Snodgrass (I got da pics). I dunno know. Yeah maybe he made a bad business deal with Geffen but he released a couple of bad records and hurt his adoring fan-base or free-base?
@rockinroller7 So socially awkward is what I meant by shy .. not that he is not going to express what is on his mine and on his terms or is scared of people. Yeah I would have been glad to see Geffen get it but I bought the records too. But I would move to your side and defend his music but I don't feel like I have to defend his actions.. most of which show his independence and courage. Peace, M
@11xzxzxz Great point about Neil needing no defenders. It's more to do with him being one of my personal "Fab Four," as in "Brown, Fogelberg, Harrison and Young."
"BFH&Y."
You know my philosophy about never picking a favorite band or musician, but those four probably had/have more to do with how I wrapp(ed) my brain about the way one lives their life. With all due respect to The Kinks, it's more than juke box music, and in some cases you should take some songs, "to heart."
@rockinroller7 Hmm Rock you mean .. .. J BRown, Dan Fogelberg, George Harrison ..... and Ferus Young?? Oh well to each his own but you didn't have Ray Davies and Pete?
@11xzxzxz True. To be honest, not that I have been lying all along, but I was so with Neil but those records dampened my view but he had every right to do them. And Neil could have been going through hard times then & Geffen & record companies can be huge jerks. Yeah - independence and courage - you got those in spades. If I were defining you; I can't really be so presumptuous to do but I try (ha), you would definitely have those 2 characteristic .. Down To The Wire (on my site).
@rockinroller7 I have no problem with what Neil said .. it rings true. But I also think he mostly doesn't feel confident before a camera (no fault of his own) when not on stage. A humanitarian not so fond of his neighbors. He doesn't talk or smile at his own neighbors not because of projects but that is just his nature .. Hell I moved back home. Notice the love and affection he has for his wife Peggi .. they must have had a bad fight .. "Neil Young - Four Strong Winds & When God made me"
@11xzxzxz "Contra-contrarian." I like that. And it fits, in a humorous, sideways way.
As for all the other you wrote, I saw what Neil said to Letterman. No different than talking to Bill Gates, as in the one's who hold the keys to the kingdom, and have to make the final decisions, whether they enjoy it or not, it's their "responsibility," to who knows how many other people it will effect financially, and I've never felt Neil is comfortable having that responsibility, as a "Loner."

I didn't even put the guys I listed in any particular order, even thought I now see they are alphabetical.
There are just too many, and I've got to draw the line somewhere.
In fact, even though I may have more Neil video's, that doesn't put him at the top of any list, just very influential.
