Neil Young
Neil Percival Young (Toronto, 12 novembre 1945) è un cantautore e chitarrista canadese naturalizzato statunitense. Tra i cantanti più celebri della sua generazione, la rivista Rolling Stone lo ha inserito al 34º posto nella lista dei migliori artisti, al 37º nella classifica dei migliori cantanti e al 17º tra i migliori chitarristi di tutti i tempi. Dopo aver debuttato giovanissimo con la storica formazione dei Buffalo Springfield e aver raggiunto il successo nel supergruppo Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, si è imposto come uno dei più carismatici e influenti cantautori degli anni settanta, contribuendo a ridefinire la figura del songwriter con album come After the Gold Rush e il vendutissimo Harvest. Artista sensibile e tormentato capace di passare con disinvoltura dalla quiete della ballata acustica pop alla brutalità della cavalcata rock, per l'approccio volutamente grezzo che contraddistingue tanto i suoi dischi quanto i suoi concerti, è stato considerato da alcuni un precursore del punk, mentre la ruvida passione delle sue performance ha spinto tanto la critica quanto gli appassionati e gli stessi musicisti ad acclamarlo negli anni novanta padrino del grunge.
