Neil Young, the anti-Skynyrd

As every good Alabama resident knows, Lynyrd Skynyrd's great rock anthem was in part inspired by Canadian Neil Young's perceived attack on Southern manhood. It turned out to be a rather symbiotic relationship. Oh, well. As much as I have come to love Skynyrd's tribute to the place where I live and work, there is no denying the greatness of Neil Young. From Toronto to Winnipeg and back to Toronto and then to the States, Young is known not only for his seminal music, but for numerous collaborations and breakups. Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills[, /&] Nash [& Young], and Crazy Horse, among others have been stations in Young's development as an artist. This video comes from a 2000 CSN&Y reunion tour, although the song was initially recorded by Young as a solo effort in 1970 on the classic album After the Harvest. Take a listen.
