Neil Young - Guitarist


We all know Neil for his outstanding songwriting skills and some may even recognize his talents with a guitar but is he underrated? in 2015 Rolling Stone ranked him as number 17 of 100 greatest guitarists of all time. Can anyone pull more raw emotion out of a guitar than Neil?

Neil Young's guitar ability is severely hampered by his political views.
We saw CSN&Y at Bethel Woods some years back and the group was still quite good and in tune with each other. Sadly toward the end Neil Young began with his political tirade and turned off a very large segment of the audience that got up and left.
I have not bought a copy of Rolling Stone in years but am quite surprised RS didn't list him much higher given their political views are well matched.
