"Where's the Horse?" someone in the Hippodrome crowd shouted out. Only Crazy Horse, the band Young first toured with in 1969, has retained his loyalty, and then only sporadically. He proved that early in his career by walking out on Crosby, Stills and Nash just as they were firmly establishing themselves as a super-group, and has picked up and dropped numerous other musicians (Pearl Jam, for instance) along the way. For all his renown as a composer of gentle sensibilities, Young's rock-and-roll has the force of a Sherman tank, all guns firing.īut Young, always self-effacing and painstakingly honest, has never pandered to the desires of anyone, whether acolytes or recording executives, and retains a bemused tolerance for the excesses of the entertainment world and the pressures it brings to others.
