ORIGINAL: domiguy lol. Neil Young is a very respected guitarist. He made the list of the greatest guitar players of all time which I don't think he probably deserved. Great on the acousitic, so so on the electric. I can see Sanity listening to "Cortez the Killer" high as a kite, waiting for the last beer form the keg of Strohs. Those were some good days. wilbur missed all of that shit. In fact, he's rather better as an electric guitarist. The feedback thing sets him up as the missing link between Hendrix and the noisy post punk lot (Sonic Youth and the Jesus And Mary Chain are both his fault, for a start), and is a lot more entertaining than listening to his dull country stuff. On most of that he just sounds like Davey Graham with a lot less finesse and technique.
