Neil Young IS the man. I would pay a lot to watch him play!Cinnamon Girl and Hank to Hendrix are great. I can't pick just one favorite,,, This message has been edited by Bob Miller on 03-14-2005 at 10:16 PM

saw CSN&Y a couple of years ago....$200 seats...15 feet from stage....best night of music I have ever experienced...he did several solos....they are all fantastic....but he is in a league of his own.....get a chance, see him....

I was out of the country from 1996 to 2003 so I missed a lot of concerts, football, baseball, etc. I'm just waiting for him to go on tour. The Roling Stones are going on tour this fall I understand to support their new CD.

Brother Ray is the correct answer. His last chart single was with Billy Joel in '92 "This is your song"Five consecutive decades, NO ONE even comes close. FWIW: Jamie Foxx WAS brother Ray.

Excuse me...........Where does Paul rank in terms of achievement compared to other recording artists? Mr. Anka has also been named the 21st most successful artist in Billboard’s history, putting him alongside music greats Elvis Presley and the Beatles.Not to mention, he set a career milestone by being one of only a few artists in history to have a record on Billboard’s Top 50 charts for five consecutive decades (Billboard statistic).
