love neil but this was crazy hard to read. very disjointed.

I read the first chapter of old Neil's book. All he wrote about was his room full of toy trains and building full of classic cars. I didn't bother reading the rest.

Not bad but rambling in form.

Neils' writing is as interesting as his music. True to his Canadian roots he remains humble and heaps praise on the many people who helped and influenced him over the years. A great story that gives the reader the chance to see the inner workings of a huge talent. Looking forward to the next book.

The guy can write songs, but hiring a ghost writer would have been a wise decision on this one. Interesting if your a fan, but written like a grade schooler.

Jan 7, 2013. Just browsing some comments, and clicking to see what other people have read. Guess I gotta read this, seeing as my first "45" that I ever bought was "Heart of Gold." Looking forward to it!

I've been following Neil since the 1970's. What an honor to "get inside his head'" so to speak. It is by no means a chronological biography, but a collection of reflections on various events leading up to performing, song writing, making it big, traveling, partying, fathering, trying to make a difference in this world . . . His insites are informative as well as entertaining. He places the reader right back in the midst of the LA music scene in the 1970's. A must for all NY, CSNY, Buffalo Springfield, and Crazy Horse fans! His most recent tour was spectaculer with Crazy Horse @ the Tulsa Convention Center fall 2012. These guys have been together since 1969. An incredible musical genious!

Neil takes the reader on a long meandering highway drive in a large Eldorado, talking about his family and his musical friends, and listening to Pono all the way.
