This is a classic Neil Young track. Awesome. Neil is just totally where it's at, even after all these years.

Great for working your arpeggiated pick strumming accuracy and just cool fun to play!

Heart Of Gold

Harvest Moon

One of my personal favourite NY ballads, it's lovely to play and a great one for learning playing the bass out as a separate kinda line.

Was amazed at how many requests I got for this song, I love it too, but hadn't realised what a huge song it is for so many. I guess many of us feel the sentiment for o...

Long May You Run

This is one of my all time favourite NY songs, great fun to play. Written about his car, I'd like to dedicate this to Malcolm Young from AC/DC.
