Starts in the '60s and runs through....now. If you like Neil Young it's worth a 54 minute investment of your time when you have a chance.

Remembered it now after Thomas Erdelyi (better known as Tommy Ramone) just passed at 65. We tried to emulate the Ramones, but with brass instruments and a drum kit. (That went about as well as it sounds it would.) At about 38 minutes of the Neil Young retrospective he talks about the Ramones. Not surprisingly he loved them. Somewhat (somewhat?!) surprisingly he also loved Flock of Seagulls. (At least he seems dead serious to me.) Shortly after the Ramone discussion there is a minute or two of Neil jamming with Devo with Hey, Hey, My, My (Into the Black). How cool is that? I remember passing friends in the halls of Wheat Ridge Senior High School and asking: "Are we not men?" You know the response.
If I ever had to narrow the Desert Island Album down to one, I'm not sure I could decide between Neil Young's On the Beach and Los Lobos' Kiko. Although in the main I'd prefer to be stranded on a Dessert Island.

Yeah, I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working .I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work. Peter Gibbons
