The film, made from three hours of interviews shot in New York and California, uses previously unseen performance footage from the singer’s own extensive archives. It also features cohorts Stephen Stills, Graham Nash, David Crosby, Nils Lofgren and James Taylor.
Neil Young
From Young’s early transcontinental American quest for recognition, through the first flush of success with Buffalo Springfield to the bi-polar opposites of mega-stardom with Crosby, Stills and Nash and the soulful rock of Crazy Horse, his career has enjoyed many guises. The film takes Young through his rise in the 60s, his solo artist period in the 70s, his 80s embrace of the New Wave and Devo collaboration and ends with Young still refusing to be denied, pursuing a more eclectic musical approach but also touring in the U.S. with Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young and teaming on occasion with Crazy Horse.
