It's Mr.Soul...although Borrowed Tune was close..the line in the song goes " I'm singing this borrowed tune,I took from the Rolling Stones".

If you listen to Mr Soul you can tell it's the guitar riff from "Satisfaction".

Someone stumped me on this one last week: What Neil Young album art has  a pot plant on it?

Someone stumped me on this one last week: What Neil Young album art has  a pot plant on it?  

Is it "American Stars And Bars"?

"Borrowed Tune" lends the melody of "Lady Jane" by The Stones.

Neil Young says of The Last Waltz: "It was not my finest moment" haha
And yeah, it cost a lot of money to remove the cocaine digitally!

For a more thorough background (maybe it's more than you want to now, takes away a lot of mystery!) read "Shakey" by Jimmy McDonough.

Shakey is a good read,although I found myself not personally  liking Crosby or Stills after I read it.There are a lot of Neil interviews in that book and he gave Mcdonough a hard time after he published it,when at first he supported it.

It's not American Stars + Bars. :)

It's Live Rust.

On the cover his guitar strap has alternating holograms of weed leaves and Jimi Hendrix's face.  What do I win?

I know that Neil owns the Lionel Toy Train Company

And that Neil was in a band with Rick James called the Mynah Birds, they were the first rock band to be signed to Motwown, and Rick James was arrested for being awol from the Navy right before their first album was coming out.  

Neil trivia is fun. :)

It's not Live Rust...that is a dove symbol on the guitar strap and a Jimi Hendrix button stuck to it.

Emmylou Harris to play with Neil Young in Nashville

By Jonathan Cohen

NEW YORK (Billboard) - Neil Young will be joined at his upcoming stand at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium by Emmylou Harris, Wayne Jackson of the Memphis Horns, the Fisk University Jubilee Singers and Carl Gorodetsky and the Nashville String Machine. The Aug. 18-19 shows will be taped for concert film by director Jonathan Demme.

Sources say the shows are expected to encompass a complete performance of Young's new album, "Prairie Wind," due Sept. 27 via Reprise. As on the record, the artist will be backed at the Ryman by keyboardist Spooner Oldham, pedal steel guitarist Ben Keith, drummer Chad Cromwell, percussionist Karl Himmel and bassist Rick Rosas.

A small amount of tickets will likely be available to the general public closer to the date of the event. Paramount Pictures will release the film in theaters and on DVD, but no schedule has yet been announced.

The only other shows currently on Young's schedule are a Sept. 18 appearance at Farm Aid outside Chicago and Oct. 29-30 at his annual Bridge School Benefit outside San Francisco. However, sources say he is mulling a handful of other dates in the fall.

I need to be able to control time travel.  Then everything would work so much better.
