Young Neil: Hitchhiker - LP

Neil Young recorded an acoustic solo album in 1976, but it was never released. The album, produced by Young's longtime collaborator David Briggs, was recorded between Zuma and American Stars And Bars during a single recording session with Young, Briggs and actor Dean Stockwell. Most of the songs were played in Young's studio for the first time.

Neil Young is an essential figure not only in American rock history. The inventive guitarist, composer, singer and nowadays music industry entrepreneur has inspired many followers. He has worked in the bands Shadows and Buffalo Springfiled, and in the groups Crosby, Still, Nash & Young, but he has made a name for himself as a solo musician. He is hailed as one of rock'n'roll's greatest performers and most respected guitarists.
