Neil Young to release music video archive on Blu-ray DVDs
2008 | May 7 | news.com

SAN FRANCISCO--At JavaOne, Neil Young showed off his multimedia project that chronicles his music career and uses Java to do so.

Young said he tried to do the project on DVD, but users couldn't watch the high-resolution video and listen to the music at the same time. With Java and Blu-ray, the content can be updated and offer the best viewing and listening experience, as well as great navigation and design. "Storage is the only limit," Young said, and recommended the Sony's PlayStation 3 as the best way to view his project.

Users will be able to download any archival materials, which are automatically assigned to their place in a chronological time line, Young said.

In a meeting with a few press members following the JavaOne keynote, Young talked about the Archive project, which goes back to the late 1980s. The first stage, he said, was collecting the materials.

"I am kind of a pack rat," he said, adding that over the years he's accumulated a lot of unreleased material. "I only give the record company what I want people to hear at the time. So I have a lot of unreleased material. Putting it all together tells a much different story than just what has been produced (for public consumption)."

Is Neil Young About To Endorse A Product?
2008 | May 3 | undercoverhd.com

"Ain't singing for Pepsi, ain't singing for Coke, I don't sing for nobody, makes me look like a joke". That was from Neil Young's 'This Notes For You'. Neil has also been outspoken about mixing products with artists. He has never had a sponsor. But on Tuesday morning, he will be singing for Sun.

Neil Young has been announced as keynote speaker at the conference for Sun Microsystems executives next week.
According to the Sun Microsystems note for you, "Neil Young and Sun will make an announcement during the event, and provide a special demonstration of a new multi-media music project. Come hear and see what Java technology means to Neil Young".

So what is Neil up to?

Sun Microsystems produce the Java platform that powers around 5.5 billion devices in mobile phones, smart cards, blu-ray players, set-top boxes, PCs and car navigation systems.
We can only assume at this stage that Young will be using their technology to reach his audience for his next album 'Toast', due soon.
All will be revealed at the conference on Tuesday morning at the Moscone Center in San Francisco from 8.30AM.

Henry Stills, 11, takes a bow
2008 | March 28 | People magazine and autismspeaks.org

From the latest issue (March 31, 2008) of People magazine — Henry Stills, 11, takes a bow in the March 25 HBO documentary "Autism: The Musical," which follows five autistic kids as they put on a show.

When Henry Stills was invited to perform in a musical with the Miracle Project, a Los Angeles theater group that includes kids with special needs, "he was ambivalent at best," says his dad, Stephen, 63, of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.

Adds mom Kristen, 41: "I figured he was not going to engage at all." Turns out Henry (who has Asperger's, a high-functioning form of autism that hinders social interaction) thrived in the creative environment. So did the four other autistic children whose rehearsals, home lives and performance (which they helped script) appear in the documentary. "People will really be able to learn from it," says Stephen. "They're just kids. Watching them, it's like, 'We're gonna do the school play.' Some wander off, some are loud, and it's just wonderful."

Henry Stills is the boy on the cover of the CSNY CD "Looking Forward."

An event to raise money for autism research has become so big, it will move to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum this year.

Autism Speaks' Rock 'Til It Stops concert is set for April 12 at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. The evening will include special performances by two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Stephen Stills and Cleveland's own Michael Stanley, tours of the exhibits, and delicious food and drinks. "Twenty percent of the money raised will stay in the Northeast Ohio Cleveland chapter," said Shari Goldberg, event co-chairwoman and president of the local chapter. "We also have an autism treatment network."

Women cover Neil Young Songs for Charity
2008 | March 9 | nydailynews.com

It's a low-budget project, created to benefit a breast cancer charity (Casting for Recovery). So the names here aren't looming. Jill Sobule, Lori McKenna and Tanya Donelly stand out as stars in the company of names like Kate York and Julie Peel.

But they all do fine work, even if none does a single daring thing with the tune or arrangement.

The women stick to Young's acoustic ballads, losing his proto-grunge or "Guitar God" sides entirely. Even the take on "Like a Hurricane" takes it slow.

Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen join anti-war soundtrack
2008 | February 25 | reuters.com

Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen and Pearl Jam have contributed tunes to the anti-war soundtrack for a documentary about a U.S. soldier paralyzed in Iraq.

The 30-song, two-disc album "Body of War: Songs That Inspired an Iraq War Veteran" will be released March 18 via Warner Music's Sire Records label. All proceeds from the sale of the album will benefit Iraq Veterans Against the War.

"Body of War" focuses on Tomas Young, an Army soldier paralyzed upon arriving in Iraq. It will open on March 13 in Austin, Texas, and expand nationally in subsequent months. Talk show veteran Phil Donahue directed the film with Ellen Spiro.

The album, put together by Young, features the single "No More," which Pearl frontman Jam Eddie Vedder composed specifically for the film. Pearl Jam's live version of Bob Dylan's "Masters of War" also graces the soundtrack.

Springsteen contributed "Devils & Dust," and Neil Young "The Restless Consumer." Other tracks include "Yo George" from Tori Amos, "Son of a Bush" from Public Enemy, and "Bushonomics" from Talib Kweli & Cornel West.

Change the World? Well, Maybe Not
2008 | February 9 | nytimes.com

Neil Young said on Friday that he had lost all hope that music can change the world, as he presented a documentary about 2006 antiwar concert tour by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young at the Berlin film festival, Agence France-Presse reported.

“I know that the time when music could change the world is past,” Mr. Young said. “I really doubt that a single song can make a difference. It is a reality.” Mr. Young made no distinction between the Vietnam War, during which Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young earned a reputation for political activism, and the war in Iraq, which their tour condemned with songs like “Let’s Impeach the President.” “It is all the same war, and it hurts everybody,” he said.

“It’s a wrong way to solve a problem,” he said, adding that Americans were deluded if they thought they were liberating Iraq.

Review Sundance Film Festival

2008 | January 26 | 4waysite.com

CSNY fan Gary Goltz was one of the privileged few to witness CSNY's contribution to the Sundance Film Festival two days ago. He wrote a review for 4waysite.com:

"It was a great night, a movie with CSNY. The audience looked like a concert crowd, lots of fans. CSNY came out at the beginning led by Neil and said a few words.

The movie was well done with clips from the tour and some early stuff most I've seen. It really explained the relevance of the group from many different points of view. It showed CSNY and the connection between the Viet Nam fiasco and the Iraq disaster with interviews and TV news reports and of course, their songs. After the movie CSNY took the stage again to answer questions.

One Vet came forward and said he had a loved one killed in the current war and Neil didn't know what he was talking about. Neil with total empathy told him he was right and acted most humble. It was a raw vulnerable emotional moment. Neil looked like he was teared up. The key was having an honest dialog he said. Nash urged everyone to vote.

 

 

 

 

< Neil with his hand on his heart was his reaction to the Vet.


I felt proud to be a long time CSNY fan. You gotta give it to Neil. What a night. Glad I made the trip from Southern CA. I give the movie a big thumbs up"!

Gary Goltz.

PARK CITY, Utah — A concert film closes the Sundance Film Festival tonight, and the subject is the group CSNY. That's Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - and you...

Turning the lens from the stage to the seats was a way to find out why people felt the way they did about the fiery new anti-war songs, whether they liked or hated them.

"They are my own personal songs," Young says. "Even though it was such a heartfelt thing, and I really believe what I believe, the way we presented it allowed everybody to say what they felt. The idea of the whole project was just to stimulate debate."

LOS ANGELES—Stephen Stills has undergone surgery for prostate cancer in Los Angeles.
In a statement, Stills' wife, Kristen Stills, said the "procedure went remarkably well and he couldn't be better. He will be home by noon tomorrow and the pain will be minimal."
The statement said the two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame artist and guitarist is scheduled to attend the Sundance Film Festival in Utah for the Jan. 25 world premiere of "CSNY / Deja vu."
The feature movie, directed by Bernard Shakey, which is Neil Young's cinematic alter ego, was filmed during the 2006 Freedom of Speech tour by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.
Stills is also scheduled for a North American solo tour this spring in support of his recently released "Just Roll Tape" album on Rhino Records.

Graham Nash to 4 WaySite: "Stephen is doing very well. His procedure was successful and he wanted to thank everyone for their prayers and good wishes."

Called "CSNY Déjà Vu", it's directed by Neil Young under his Bernard Shakey alias. The film takes place against the backdrop of the supergroup's 2006 Freedom Of Speech Tour, during which the band were joined by Mike Cerre, a veteran correspondent of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts, who conducted many interviews with CSNY fans about the war in Iraq and the Bush administration.

The film, which is expected to get a full theatrical release later in the year, also features music from Young's 2006 Living With War album.

Neil Young has directed films before under the Shakey pseudonym, including Journey Through The Past, Human Highway and Greendale.
