Neil Young's music and songwriting - which span forty years and thirty-four studio albums of rock and roll, folk and country, with shadings of blues, techno and other styles - are among the most enduring and popular in modern times. From his early days with Buffalo Springfield, and his solo career and collaborations with Crosby, Stills & Nash, Crazy Horse and dozens of other musicians and groups, Young is acclaimed for both of his musical talents and his artistic integrity. With a major hit in every decade since the sixties, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice (as a solo artist in 1995 and as a member of Buffalo Springfield in 1997). A well-known political activist, environmentalist and philanthropist, Young has been involved in several causes, notably co-founding Farm Aid and the Bridge School, which assists children with physical impairments and communication needs.
