Shakey
 

is the Neil Young biography "Shakey" any good?

i remember reading that there is a good neil young bio and a shit one

i'd hate to buy the shit one

I read one written by his father. Can't remember which one it was, but I do recall being moved by it. But this was years ago.

i read the first half of it then my car got stolen with it in it and have not finished it. but it was pretty damn good. the guy followed neil around for years mostly with young's support. i would suggest it.

young has a self written bio coming out sometime soon so that'll probably be good.

Yeah thats what reminded me about Shakey.
Cheers, think i'll get it next week

Shakey is fucking brilliant.

yea, i really enjoyed it. i'm curious about his autobiography he is releasing soon. i think its called "making heavy peace" i think its gonna be a bit like chronicles, which is fine by me

Neil talks about his book and life in this great interview on Fresh Air:

I've read Shakey probably a half-dozen times. Great book.
