Neil Young is one of rock and roll's most important, influential and enigmatic figures. In 'Shakey,' Jimmy McDonough tells the whole story of Young's incredible life and career - from his childhood in Canada to his cofounding of the pioneering folk-rock group Buffalo Springfield; to the bleary conglomeration of Crazy Horse and simultaneous monstrous success of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young; to the depraved depths of Tonight's the Night and the strange changes of the Geffen years; to Young's unprecedented nineties 'comeback' with Ragged Glory and Harvest Moon. McDonough spent six years doggedly pursuing rock's most elusive quarry, talking to more than three hundred of Young's associates (many of whom spoke freely for the first time), as well as sitting down with Young in person for more than fifty hours of interviews. This story of a rock and roll legend is filled with never-before-published words directly from the artist himself.
