keep on rocking in the free world.......

ok, so i announced under pressure that neil young is my secret new band......in order to throw everyone off the scent that he is also my secret old favorite band.......my family knows that cowgirl in the sand is one of my top 3 all time favorite songs........and as we were driving back from a family walk this evening...and listening to n.y.'s greatest hits in historical order....i discovered that cowgirl dates from 1969......years before i ever heard 4-way street.......csny's greatest album evah.....go figure.......gosh.....in 1969 the only album i owned was introducing the monkees....or therabouts.....i didn't buy another commercial recording until 1972 when i bought....4-way street.......and not because of cowgirl.......i liked helplessly hoping.....and the all along the lee shore.......don't let it bring you down.......but then cowgirl grew on me......and i could sing the lyrics blindfolded......hee hee........but i digress from neil.....we watched the colbert footage again this evening......and i must say that neil is every bit as timely as an iraq protester as he was in 1969...1970......and beyond.......
