How does one represent the career of one of the most distinctive, powerful singer/songwriters of the 20th century in the space of a single CD? By keeping it simple and sticking to the milestones. That`s exactly what GREATEST HITS accomplishes, by presenting 16 of Neil Young`s most beloved compositions. The gritty, fuzz-guitar fury of Young`s work with Crazy Horse ("Cinnamon Girl," "Hey Hey, My My [Into the Black]") brushes up against the acoustic-based, country-tinged "Old Man" and "Only Love Can Break Your Heart," as well as haunting, soul-baring ballads such as "The Needle and the Damage Done." Few would deny that the 1970s were Young`s richest decade, and this collection strongly focuses on those years, skipping most of Young`s genre-hopping `80s albums and grandfather-of-grunge `90s recordings, but the gems from those years would make a rewarding sequel to this concise, sterling anthology.

Customer Reviews
Overall Rating: 4.5
Its a good cd with a decent mix of classic songs on it. They could have took out a couple of songs and replace them with songs like "cortez the killer" and "horse with no name" but I guess that's just personal taste.
